better off purchasing thru amazon as ne return rma policy is so wishy-washy.
https://forum.hddguru.com/viewtop...&mobile=on it's a mobile link but this should cover what he/she meant
Sounds more like the intel 530 issue where in power saving/idle modes it wouldn't do garbage collection and would do any quick writes the quick and dirty way which would drive up host writes to insane levels. Eventually quietly fixed with a firmware you had to look for outside their auto update system. Better to not have people complain about battery life, it will die outside the warranty period anywayslaugh out loud

Just a heads up to the write amplification issues that drive has/had. Last I checked it had not been resolved. Shame as its a good drive otherwise.

Pick this up back in November for $5 cheaper. I've had no issues with it. Currently being used to move my PS5 games off of the built in storage.

Assuming you have an extra NVME slot, any reason to go with SSD instead of another NVME?

Cheaper, and for general consumer use-cases the speed difference is usually unnoticeable

Price. You won't always find an NVme of similar capacity at this price
