Mcron M600 - dynamic write acceleration MLC SLC?

What's this?

The M600 also excels in write performance due to Micron's innovative dynamic write acceleration. This technology switches NAND cells to behave more like higher-grade Flash (from MLC to SLC) on-the-fly, creating a cache that is sized according to drive demands—instead of sacrificing user capacity for a permanent cache. The end result reduces power use and improves write performance as much as 2.8 times over non-cached systems, ensuring that even the lower-capacity M600 SSDs deliver excellent write speeds.

Apparently you don't need to leave empty space for provisioning???

What's this?
The same thing as Samsung's TurboWrite, and Sandisk's Ncache. It's what made the Sandisk Ultra Plus series quite usable, FI, despite relatively low sustained transfer rates. SLC is not only less dense and more durable, but also much, much, faster than MLC or TLC. By making the cells able to act as MLC or SLC, they can burst writes very quickly to the flash, allowing more time to be spent either idle, or performing other writes or reads.

Apparently you don't need to leave empty space for provisioning???
Of course not. But you haven't needed to do that since maybe 2011, and that has nothing to do with this feature.
