Ymtc 128L nand has had issues in the past, 232L ymtc nand is supposedly not affected:

The lack of professional reviews, limited number of customer reviews, lacking information about exact specifications, lack of any sort of firmware updates or utilities on their website, and low brand presence in western markets would lead me to not recommend this drive for use as a boot drive or to hold sensitive information, particularly without robust redundancy/backups. That being said, I'd still personally recommend this drive over the recent deals we've seen on drives using the ig5236 controller, which is infamous for having a variety of issues. For use as a game drive or for other less sensitive purposes this drive seems like a decent deal if you'd actually make use of the newegg giftcard (the $15 giftcard is sent by email 4 days after invoice and expires 90 days after issuance), especially considering how ssd prices have been rising ever since November. For those looking to use this drive with a ps5, based on the specs this drive is ps5 compatible but multiple reviews indicate that the ps5 pops up a warning that the drive doesn't met the requirements and may cause slowdowns. On the other hand, multiple users mentioned it was working fine in their ps5.

Here are my test results and I do recommend them as good SSDs
KingSpec XG 7000 4TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0x4:
Attachment 14883799
versus WD - BLACK SN850X 2TB PCIe 4.0x4:
Attachment 14883796
It is. Look up KingSpec on Aliexpress. Considered it as white label. The brand means nothing when it comes to KingSpec.
