The performance sp silicon power 4tb ssd 3d nand a55's delivers makes it equally versatile.
The tools that show the drives health are useless and formatting doesn't change anything.
So without any dram it's best for small burst file transfers or installing a game, etc.
Price
For the price, the performance is top-notch, making this ssd an excellent value.
The fact that the drive is less expensive also is great.
So, i ordered the silicon power a55 256gb ssd from amazon for under $20.
For under $20, it was the best bang for the buck for a 256gb ssd.
Shipping
I ordered it one day and it arrived the following day.
This time i was glad that i got it same day thanks to amazon warehouse stocking it.
Packaging/appearance
Packaging was nothing special and was what was to be expected.

The speeds are just as advertised, aside from the write speed when writing large transfers, nearly as fast as superior competing products.
However, it was not a straightforward as will other brands.

First of all i have owned and operated a computer business for over 20 years so i have seen the good and the bad and probably just like the rest of you i read the reviews of items before i buy them

For me as a business owner i have to be careful what we buy for and sell to our customers and this drive was just such item we ordered for a customer that needed a new hard drive as theirs had crashed

Keep in mind the system itself was nothing special decent processor and 8gb of memory
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Installation took roughly 24 minutes on the traditional drive and boot time was about a minute and a half before you could do anything without the little circle basically telling you to wait
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Let me say this i could care less what the reviews others may provide here are perhaps they got a bad drive which happens or something else happened i do not know but when we see install times cut down to less than half the time and a 10 second boot time that is impressive period
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Of course not conditions vary experience and skill level of the installer will vary from person to person and if there is one thing that we have come to realize over the years in this business is that people are far more willing to blame a device than their own user error because that is far easier to explain
