Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It performs as described and seems to have reasonable speed foe r/w operations. I'm glad i did, because my pi 4 boots up lightning fast, runs perfectly, and now i don't have to worry about a memory card randomly crapping out on me.

The 256gb * comes with a usb 3. Enclosure and an nggv adapter. Windows makes formatting the drive easy. The drive can be connected via usb or via usb 2.

This is my 3rd upgrade from hdd to ssd as boot and retaining hdd as backup. Reads are accurate but writes are not 100% there. Use diskmark 64 to test the read/write speed.

Cons

Tried twice to clone drive. Can't initialize or partition these in windows. Ssd never once had these issues.

Returned for refund. Buyer beware. Just buy new one.

Shipping

I ordered an enclosure so i can install raspberry pi os on it but amazon hasn't shipped that yet so i can't report on performan... Read More

Packaging/appearance

The one i received was poorly packed and was used.

Competitiveness

It's even better than many other brands and works perfectly.

I've purchased a few silicon power branded items over the years, and they tend to be economically priced but not the fastest performers.
