But you took the time to google the other irrelevant information? Applause

The SATA interface is more limited than a direct PCIE interface, like NVME, but it still has a place and is not going anywhere soon.

The underlying NAND flash is not different between a 2.5" SSD or a M.2 2280 form factor, so the cost can not be radically different even though the interface has very large differences. You can save on the controller costs however.
Finally starting to see some normalization after pandemic purchasing fever. "To the bottom baby!"

Quote from BlueRaccoon1085 :
This is one of the cheapest and least reliable brands you can buy.

The 2.5" SSD is already outdated so it is expected though a little too late. Who has a modern laptop or PC that uses this form factor instead of the newer M2 2280 or NVMe these days?

If anything, the 2280 SSDs from reliable brands like Samsung and Hynix should be seeing the price drop by now, not this.

EDIT: The truth is too hard for you downvoters to accept? Do a quick Google search. The 2.5" SSD came out in 1991, 31 years ago. The M.2 came out in 2012.

Yeah, I'd rather it be a better drive / brand... but any movement in the right direction is still movement. Many times the budget brands are the first to move and can help move the entire market.

The M.2 statement is a little heavy handed. I have a system that is only 1 year old and has a single M.2 port so I expanded it with a 500GB sata solid state and a 1TB spinning disk. Suites my needs well enough and I didn't have to toss the drive that came with the system.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. I didn't know there are modern systems that accept both form factors.

I know right? How does including a cheap memory card of that size that costs only a few dollars make people want to buy it?

It makes no difference. Really, you're paying for both for the cost of one.

They gotta get rid of stick of those 16gb micro SD cards. Just think of how many they have just sitting in boxes.

Well, the laptop that I bought in 2009 currently has a 2.5" SSD, and that is kinda old. laugh out loud

Then they should stop manufacturing them. It is that simple.

Ok.

I meant that I was unaware that they had replaceable drives.

Well soon I will have to move from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 to Windows 11. I expect problems. This could make a cheap backup of my regular backup drive so I can undo.

They will as soon as Apple stops using 64gb drives in their devices and selling them at prices of a device that has a 256gb drive.

virtually every modern motherboard made has SATA ports... I think you'd be pretty hard pressed to find a desktop motherboard made in the last 15 years without one.
