I had kingspec SSDs for more than 2 years now. I had a issue with one that died in ~20 months. The thing is that I already knew it was unreliable and I didnt leave important data unbacked on that drive. It was a really nice value for me, mainly because the competitors of the big brands are ~100% more expensive in my country. So it served me well for almost 2 years, now I bought another chinese SSD to put in its place, now from Netac. No regrets at all.

This brand maybe is not reliable, but my experience with it so far is very good. The Asus ultrabook I bought 4 years ago came only with an HDD and it have a mSATA half mini size for optional SSD. I didn't wanted to buy a 32GB SSD and use IRST, so the ONLY OPTION I found that time was a 128GB Kingspec, there was no other brand with a large SSD in this form factor (and 128GB was the larger one, they released 256GB in this form factor later), so "why not?", I bought it, installed Windows on it, and for almost 4 years I'm running this laptop flawlessly, zero issues so far, and even with some weak points that I also saw on benchmarking, all the time, for everything I need to do (except gaming, I have a gaming desktop so I bought a laptop for university only), it behaves great, it's fast 100% of the time, and I never lost any data. It probably is one of the worse drives when comparing with other SSDs, but in the other hand, in performance, literally any SSD is better than a hard drive, and this little guy doesn't disappoint.

I also bought a low-capacity KingSpec that was cheaper - and lower capacity - than any branded drive, and i already figured out what kind of controller it would have beforehand, and was satisfied with the expected performance tradeoff. I didn't care about reliability, write performance, warranty or capacity, i just needed a special purpose SATA boot key with lower power and noise and better performance than an old piece of junk hard disk, and wasn't willing to spend any real money on it, i think i paid something ridiculous like $12 for something like 32GB. And i think it's still more reliable than a really crusty old hard disk. I forgot where i put it, but i think i put rather minimal Linux on it and could have gotten away with super little capacity, even way less. If a reputable brand offered a drive that cost up to 40% or $5 more, i would have likely taken that, but since they apparently don't want my business if it's that small, well serves them right. And i mean it's also still a lot faster than an SD-Card or a USB2 key, a LOT.

That isn't what that phrase means. It means you buy a cheap thing, realize it's garbage, then buy a better one, when you could have just bought a better one the first time. I'm a mechanic, and cheap people pay a lot more. If I quote you $400 to fix your car, then you take it to someone charging $200, then they do it wrong. They come back to me to do it right, and now I have to spend more time fixing the cheap shitty mechanic's fuckups, so now it's not $400, it's $550. So they could have just paid me $400 and got it done right, but they spent $200 plus $550 instead. That's an actual real life scenario that happens a lot.

It's the first SSD I've bought, I've bought lots of Destern digital, Seagate and Toshiba HDDs but this is the first SSD. I looked at reviews after it had arrived and the reviews were great too. I will definitely buy from this company again. Also it's a UK manufacturer and it's UK stock so delivery was quick.

@Jamie Geezer Nice that's an incredible deal, I'm gonna have to have a look on AliExpress for another SSD. I've purchased a few gaming accessories and parts to customize controllers from AliExpress etc and all have been awesome. Since the SSD I have purchased a Western Digital 2tb it has a blue case, it was refurbished but on sale for £30 (normally around £80) but was sold directly on the Western Digital site and had a warranty. I was dubious about purchasing a refurbished unit, but I've had no problems and use it for PS4 games on my PS5. I usually get Toshiba externals, but this was cheaper than it's Toshiba equivalent.

Have you ever played the RMA an SSD game? You spend countless HOURS doing the tech hokey kokey of 'try this, now try this, what happens if you do this, have you tried this'. And the nail in the coffin is the 'if we receive the SSD, test it, and it's fine, then we'll charge you for our time and the shipping to send it back' part of the game. In the UK, consumers (not businesses, just consumers) have the option of sending a faulty product back to the retailer to arrange a fix/replacement, and that works well... but businesses are clobbered with nonsensical and unethical practices, from all SSD vendors. Samsung are the worst, outsourcing everything to NL including tech support.

I don't know about newer versions of Windows, but Linux actually optimizes output for SSDs. There is a small detection switch (that can be overridden if it detects wrong) that registers if a device is a conventional hard drive or an NVRAM based drive. If you use the defaults on filesystem formatting it will format both EXT4 and BTFS differently for SSDs, and the cache behavior is substantially different. There is also F2FS available which is good almost all SSDs, even ones that use LBA access mode (although ones with direct addressing do even better because it has integrated write-leveling.)

I've had 2 SSDs in my computer one was a SanDisk SSD that died less than a year after I bought it, decided I would run on an HDD until I could buy an Samsung 850 Evo, however at a local bargain store that sells surplus or returned items from online stores for $5 (a place called gimme a 5) I came across this SSD, it did not have a box, and it had a huge dent on it (metal enclosure) I figured it's only $5 not a big loss of it doesn't work or does quickly. Bought it, installed it, found it worked and was a 512GB model, installed Windows and waited for it to die so I could get my 850 Evo, that was back in March of 2016, and it is still my main drive for my pc, it's running z97, 4790k and a GTX 970 to give you an idea how long ago this was, it was, when I bought my SanDisk SSD it was a 120 GB model that I payed $60 or $80 for died less than 9 months after I bought it brand new, with only Windows and league of legends installed on it, everything else was stored to one of my 5 HDD so for me it was easily the greatest $5 I've ever spent

My first SSD was a Sandisk and it died in short order (months). I sent it in under warranty but needed to get my PC running so I bought a 225 GB Samsung EVO. It's been great as a system disk for over 4 years now. In time the replacement arrived from Samsung so I keep it as a spare still in the packaging. For my second PC I again chose a 225 GB EVO. That system will be 4 years old next month. I love the silent boots to the home screen in approx. 10 seconds, maybe a little more for the ancient Win 7 Gateway quad core daily user.

For some reason it went MIA as a game drive but worked fine as a boot drive. The main thing that I've seen on all chinesium ssd:s is the lack of wear-level indidcation.

@teejaybee63 4 жыл бұрын
It really depends on the drive. Some higher end/enterprise drives use capacitors to retain power for long enough to flush the cashe to nand. Other use firmware level Power Loss Protection, whereby you may lose a small amount of data, but the flash mapping tables should still be consistent - the drive shouldnt get bricked, nor should it be massively corrupted. This is where the quality of the firmware code comes in to play - because it actually doesnt matter if has a cache or not, it's still possible for the power to go out part way through an update. Whether its between updating user blocks and mapping blocks or because updating the mapping table itself requires multiple changes, or even while a block is being erased or written - if the power goes out the drive needs to be able recover at next power on - albeit probably with a small amount of data loss. Not all drives do, and it would appear to be one of the more common ways SSD's fail - but I can't prove that.
