How to fix Zhitai TiPro9000 2TB cache overflow in Palworld?

The tearing is brutal when flying; distant buildings just piece together like a broken puzzle. I noticed that once the Zhitai TiPro9000 2TB hit over 800GB of writes, the speed plummeted from 7000MB/s to a pathetic 1200MB/s, causing the assets to desync. I tried using a defrag tool first, which was a huge mistake since defragging an NVMe is pointless and just adds wear—total facepalm moment. I then flashed the latest official firmware and disabled write cache merging in Device Manager, locking the queue depth to 32. In CrystalDiskMark, 4K random reads jumped from 42-48MB/s to 61-67MB/s, making the flight smooth. I did have a scare where the drive disappeared after the firmware update, but a quick M.2 reseat fixed it. Drive temps are hovering around 45-52℃. System logs show no more command piling, though RAM temps stayed slightly high at 58-63℃.
