Pros & Cons
Cons
Silicon power 128gb is much slower than a traditional hard drive. Could not boot at all in safe mode, recovery mode or using a recovery disk. Would be fine for an extra game drive but just step it up to 1tb+ at that point.
These things are junk. Will be buying only trusted brands going forward.
Got * off and smashed it with a hammer.
Highlights
Quality
Light weight and fast read write speed
Great product, working perfectly, will continue to order from sp.
Hook it up, boot to the usb drive install your choice of os, i used fedora 40, the installation was done in less than 15 minutes.
Filled the whole thing in less than a day (your results may vary)
Price
For the price and size great product
This item is a good bang for your buck, it is a fast ssd cheap reliable.
1tb for under $50 is a fair price for such a decently spec’d sata ssd.
But most of the people i do this for are very budget conscious and i needed something i could support and they could afford.
Shipping
All i can say is wow, it's so much faster now.
Competitiveness
Out of 8 different less expensive drives, the sp drive has provided the value, speed and most of all, the reliability i need.
These are not a well known brand, nor are they the most or least expensive.
They are on par with others brands like patriot, mushkin, kingston, and team group.
They are cheap, have a very low fail rate, and perform similar to the samsung drives.

I don’t know how long this drive will last but i have purchased other ssd’s from the same brand and they are still going strong 4years and 7years later

I thought this drive failed at the 6 month mark of very minimal backup only operation

However this is still a very strange anomaly ive never experienced with other drives especially ones without an os on it

I thought it would have worn out after a year of nonstop read and write 247 but no issues at all

Works great i really dont like how its labeled as 512 gb and really only 470 usable gigabytes

I almost thought it was broken but i had to learn that its not plugandplay
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I had to dig up a tool to format the drive for windows first and then it could get installed properly
