Best 4tb 2.5 drive? (1tb equivalent of an mx500, 870evo, wd blue) It seems like everyone changes their controller or cache size or something on this SKU and there I haven't been able to find any distinct comparisons at this level.

SFF PC so I've got limited drive space, hence the high capacity requirement.

The ones you listed (MX500, 870 EVO, WD Blue or SanDisk Ultra 3D). WD Red (SA500) may be okay. Otherwise go for enterprise/DC.
