The high volumes of capture storage that are possible in Storage and Storage Expansion shows the benefits of using the new E3.S NVMe and QLC flash technologies.

E3.S is:

• much smaller and thinner than 2.5", enabling better airflow and higher density designs.

• optimised for PCIe Gen4/Gen5 NVMe, offering significantly higher bandwidth and lower latency.

QLC vs TLC is the type of NAND flash memory used in the disks.

• QLC (Quad-Level Cell) stores 4 bits per cell, enabling higher capacity at a lower cost per bit.

• TLC (Triple-Level Cell) stores 3 bits per cell, which balances endurance, performance, and density.

TLC can have the reputation for higher write endurance, but Beeks performance testing shows that the new QLC disks have good endurance.
