Respectfully: to the extent that I can understand what you're trying to say, you don't seem to know what you're talking about. Stop trying so hard to bash the whole industry for making tradeoffs you don't agree with, and put a little more effort into understanding how these things actually work.



we are all here reading a machined translated article from a pt_br warez forum on using the wrong firmware on a ssd controller to talk to the firmware on a "smart" nand flash. to mimic a semblance of control of your own device.

but yeah, I'm the delusional one and the industry is very sane and carrying for the wishes of the consumer. carry on.


See, you're still taking every opportunity to rant about "control", while continuing to get the technical details wrong (this time: the bit about firmware on a smart NAND chip, which is a real thing but not what the article is about). You're not even bothering to make a cogent case for why retail SSDs should expose this low-level control, just repetitively complaining. You could have actually made the conversation more interesting by taking a different approach.


i could complain about all day about how it's impossible to write a decent driver for ssd here, even hdd drivers seen like decent, which is a far cry, but besides amusing you, where do you think this will go?
