Yes, I was intending to use it as a data drive for OneDrive but that will already be well over 50% full in my case, so dropped the idea after checking all these things out.
Also, in this video you can see the speed falling after copying 200-300 GB. However, he is doing it on an empty drive. Once it is more than half full, the cache size keeps reducing until it falls faster to the actual NAND speed.
It's better/faster cousin O7000 post cache speed is 50-60MB/s so don't expect this ssd to have 100MB/s post cache speed. In fact if you look at that video carefully you can see the speeds dropping to even 15-20MB/s which is what should be expected on these drives where post cache avg speeds drop down to 50-60MB/s.
The Orico O7000 uses the very popular Maxiotech MAP1602 controller, paired with QLC NAND, to build a highly affordable soild-state drive. The real-life testing in our review confirms: this is the fastest QLC based SSD, even beating most other TLC SSDs on the market.

Edit: Ordered & then cancelled after looking deeply into the reviews which led to the conclusion that avg write speed of 167MB/s to fill the entire drive while having cache speeds of 4.5GB/s means post cache speeds drop to double digits meaning native qlc flash has very poor quality write speeds. I could live with even hdd level...
