    Thinking about it, it would be nice if when formatting a partition on mlc based drives, you could specify the number of bits per cell used. So an 8tb QLC drive could be formatted as a 2tb SLC for those who want the resilience, without having to commit to it permanently.

    I’m sure there are technical reasons that would be difficult, but everything started out difficult until we figured it out.
