72 out of 100 low confidence 9 reviews

Most users are happy with this SSD, praising its easy installation, fast speeds, and great value for money. However, one reviewer reported the drive dying after six months of light use, and another noted that performance drops significantly when the cache is full due to cheaper NAND. Overall, it's seen as a solid budget option, though not the fastest on the market.
