OK,I am really annoyed - it seems they have recently introduced a lower TBW model this year without much fanfare,ie,the 2TB model is 1200TBW which is still decent but not the same as the previous one:

So you could get either of the models,so I apologise for not spotting this earlier. None of the reviews seem to be for the newer one. (edited)

as they have updated the spec pages.
They call the new one the rev. 2022 with these item numbers:
Seagate FireCuda 520 SSD +Rescue 2TB, M.2, Rev. 2022 (ZP2000GV30012 / ZP2000GV3A012)
Seagate FireCuda 520 SSD 2TB, M.2 (ZP2000GM30002 / ZP2000GM3A002)
The latter is the 3,600 TBW endurance champion. The top one just a normal 1,200 TBW one.
