The single biggest factor in SSD performance is the presence and quantity of DRAM cache. A drive with a GB or two of DRAM will write at several hundred MB/s all day long, while a DRAM-less drive will slow to a crawl after the first couple GB written.

This being the case, why does nobody list this spec? Neither amazon nor newegg have cache as a filterable item. 95% of drives don’t even mention it one way or the other in the product description. It’s fucking maddening.

Are there any web shops that will let me search for drives with DRAM cache specifically, or am I going to have to resort to googling full reviews of each model individually?
