Yeah, intel ssd is a pro 2500 from 2014. Wiki page says 540/490 for it if the wiki page is accurate. Wanted to upgrade it since it is only 80gb. Probably got a defective drive. Not worth the trip to return it.
Yeah, I agree it may not be worth the trip depending on distance. If you called MC customer service they may ship you a replacement free if you still have proof of purchase/order on your account...although depending on the value of your time, that also may not be worth it lol.
Even if a properly functioning drive is much faster than yours, your data point is something to consider in the QC/reliability context. Sure it's cheap, I just hope those using it remember the VALUE OF THEIR DATA. I personally won't store critical data or backups on cheap drives.
Bad form, Stn.
We don't like being scammed, so why would scamming the vendor be acceptable?
Plus, this provably poisons the well -- case in point: Staples, Lowe's, etc.
Just say no.

Yeah, getting a decent PC for $50 would be nice too. While we're at it, maybe a set of new tires for $100 as well.
Unless you have 10 phone numbers, your hypothetical scenario ain't happening.
They have an INCREDIBLY-HIGH failure rate.
Do not trust these drives with anything important. Period.
The controller enjoys bricking, and you'll get 'SATAFIRM11' showing up in the BIOS. MC has better drives; get one of those instead.
They are both for new customers
