I recently purchased a 512gb Transcend MTS800 ssd, which is the m.2 version of the desktop SSD370. The box says "MLC inside". However, crystal disk info is showing attributes like "TLC ERASE COUNT".
Googling reveals that Transcend is using different nand in the MTS800/SSD370 series. I thought I was buying 20nm micron MLC. I could care less if the nand performs similarly and has the same endurance. However, I doubt TLC (non-3d) or 16/15nm MLC nand will approach the endurance of 20nm micron.
The 4 nand chips read "SANDISK SDYNSGDPM 128G CHINA" followed by what looks like a serial number. Can someone help me determine size and type of nand?

Received a reply from a Transcend rep that SDYNSGDPM-128G is 15nm MLC. Case closed.
