Dramless sata ssd are universally bad though still much better than any hdd as windows drive. There are good as well as bad dramless NVMe ssd with WD SN570/580/770 being the only dramless ssd models worth considering.FYI, one can sort on the "DRAM" column to quickly see all the SSDs with DRAM.
Make sure to always keep backup of any important data on this drive on another drive all the time because this ssd has reliability issues(high chances of failure within first 1-2 years). To be more specific the issue is with the inngrit controller this ssd is using.XPG Gammix S70 Blade M.2 NVME 2TB PCIe Gen4 2280 Internal Gaming SSD Read/Write Up to 7,400/6800 MB/s for ₹9,679 + Bank offers
They are looking from ssd standards. I have some dramless ssd & sometimes they perform just like hdd which is certianly not expected from any ssd drive even if most of the time they work much faster than any hdd. On the other hand I also have dram ssd & they always work as expected from a ssd which is supposed to be always much faster than any hdd.They're not universally bad. It depends on your use case and what you want from the ssd.
Any SSD will fall back to the native NAND speed when it runs out of DRAM or cache. If you are experiencing it on some of your DRAMless drives, then it is only because they have not provisioned for much SLC cache. WD also doesn't provision that much cache compared to Samsung for example, so it is easy to see where budget manufacturers cut costs.They are looking from ssd standards.

It was being sold for 3.5k on both amazon and flipkart1200 difference b/w bx500 and mx500 for 1TB, just buy mx500 already
That name .. lol !Johnny Lucky SSD Database

Still better thanThat name .. lol !
As i already have WD 770 for OS, so i didn't buy that, instead i bought XPG S40G RGB for Aesthetic look of my pc, which is also good for pc gamingMake sure to always keep backup of any important data on this drive on another drive all the time because this ssd has reliability issues(high chances of failure within first 1-2 years).

Even there, there are good dramless NVMe ssd like WD SN570 whose post cache speed is still around 500-600MB/s & most ssd nowadays have dynamic cache meaning it depends on free space left on drive so if one is planning on using more than 70-80% of available space(aka around 700-800GB on 1TB drive) then available cache shrinks to around just 50GB.Any SSD will fall back to the native NAND speed when it runs out of DRAM or cache.

I bought one recently, not this one because I could not find anything for 4K @ 120 Hertz. This says - 4K video at 60 Hz, 2160p, 48 bit/px color depth.Amazon Basics High-Speed Braided HDMI Cable - 6 Feet - Supports Ethernet, 3D, 4K and Audio Return - Single Pack (Black)

Those are again all the places where costs are cut. WD SN570 has only 12 GB dedicated cache and no hardware encryption compared to a 980 which has 160 GB dynamic cache for 1TB capacity with hardware encryption, which works better for daily use cases, unless you fill up the capacity. Then there is the quality of the NAND cell itself and the controller.Even there, there are good dramless NVMe ssd like WD SN570 whose post cache speed is still around 500-600MB/s & most ssd nowadays have dynamic cache meaning it depends on free space left on drive so if one is planning on using more than 70-80% of available space(aka around 700-800GB on 1TB drive) then available cache shrinks to around just 50GB.

If you are using a SATA drive especially, then the non-cache speed drops to 200 MBps or less.
