Cons
Lastred less than two years. Sandisk tech support / warranty registration they ultimately tell me they are unable to register the product online.

Nothing meaningful. The only consolation is that i hadn't done anything yet, so no foul.

Price
If you don't mind the price, then this is a great product.

Competitiveness
Very good ssd, maybe not that fast but still great comparing to normal hddyou won't be disappointed of this purchase.
They are a little pricey compared to other options, including purchasing a base ssd 2.

As storage prices go down year by year this 500gb model is absolutely no longer worth the 90 price tag
