fanxiang S500 Pro 512GB vs Silicon Power P34A60 512GB
At least one of these has no price the site currently tracks, so what follows weighs specifications alone.

How these two compare
Sequential throughput
fanxiang S500 Pro 512GB states 3200 MB/s read and 2700 MB/s write; Silicon Power P34A60 512GB states 3400 MB/s read and 3000 MB/s write, both over PCIe. Sequential numbers like these describe large sustained transfers; the responsiveness you notice day to day tracks random access more closely than the peak figures do.
NAND
On the flash itself: fanxiang S500 Pro 512GB uses QLC, and Silicon Power P34A60 512GB uses TLC. NAND tiers count bits per cell — more bits pack more capacity into the same silicon but shorten write endurance and slow sustained writes, which is why QLC sits below TLC on lasting performance even when the sequential numbers match.
Which to buy
The site holds no current price for at least one of these, so it cannot call the buy on cost. Judge them on the specifications above — at the same capacity and interface, two drives usually part on things like the DRAM cache, the NAND tier, endurance and warranty, so weigh whichever of those the sections above report.
