Is this an MLC SSD?

[GamerBlake]

Hey guys,

 

I was going through some of my old computer hardware and I came across this old 128 GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD.

 

I read somewhere that the newer Samsung Pro series aren’t really MLC and I’m wondering if this older one is?

 

Does anyone know if this is MLC?

 

If so would it make sense to use this drive in my PC since I have 2 available SATA ports?

 

Thanks!

Oh yeah I already have that installed because my current build has a 2TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus, 2TB 860 Evo and a 2TB 860 QVO.

 

I do know for a fact that I didn’t use the 840 Pro for very long and I only had games on it at the time so I don’t think the wear should be too bad at all unless it can degrade from sitting in my garage?

it depends on how you store it, every thing eventualy degrades, for example you might have kept it in a humid environment which could create rust on the solders and what not. thats why I don't generaly like to resel old devices stored in ware houses.. its too many variables that could ruin something
