The following drives have no broken TRIM issues with APFS/macOS
Working fine with TRIM:
- Western Digital Blue SN570
- Western Digital Blue SN580
- Western Digital Black SN770
- Western Digital Black SN750
- Western Digital Black SN850(X)
Vit9696 has written that the following Intel drive works too. He didn't test the 670p model.
- Intel 760p (including OEM models, e.g. SSDPEMKF512G8)
The main issue with the 670p is the QLC nand flash. It doesn't hold up as well longer term.
144 layers of QLC flash

Safest bet is to go with one of the WD drives listed above. You can sometimes find prices nearly as low as the
670p and they are all TLC nand flash memory. About four months ago, they hit the lowest prices ever but have since gone back up as supply has decreased.
The SN770 is the best bang for your buck NVMe in my opinion.
