HI guys, anyone bought Samsung SSD from Lotus's Lazada before? Is it under Samsung Malaysia warranty?

I just bought a 980 NVME, trying to register the product but can't.

If you look at TBW objectively it will only be achieved in years of daily constant full drive writes & rewrites. Doubtful this is actual usage. However I have MLC SSD which supposed to last very long died on me right after warranty period (back then was just 3 years). So YMMV

Fanxiang? I would reco stick with reputable name brands. At least you have local warranty.

yeap, dont buy rando unknown SSD brands,
(My own) Tierlist:
1. Samsung
2. Micron (Crucial)
3. Teamgroup
4. WD (Sandisk)
5. Seagate
6. Kioxia (Spun-off from Toshiba)
7. A-data (XPG)
8. Kingston
9. Transcend

Before hit the buy button, make sure the shop is local and have at warranty
Check review, especially from techpowerup
First thing to check, whether it has DRAM, with DRAM it may prolong the SSD life span and improve performance
but if you're using for storage drive, you can pretty much ignore the DRAM requirement

If you go to a Lotus hypermart do you see them selling Sammie SSD? I really doubt its sold by Lotus themselves, perhaps a shop inside Lotus which could mean its not official reseller. Why not ask Sammie helpdesk to verify if Lotus is an official reseller.

I question Teamgroup ranking that high, even higher than WD & Kioxia which are OEM and uses inhouse NAND, and Seagate which has highest TBW rating for each size capacity.
TG is just another 3rd party AIBS same as Adata, Kingston, etc

from all the reviews, it seems really legit. Really tempted to get one of the samsung ssd
The Samsung T7 SSD 1TB will price at RM270, 2TB RM577 RM470 during 11.11. Which is cheapest among all sellers.

Yea in the physical store, I don't see them selling phones, tablets and computer, maybe sales too low, I don't go lotus's store to buy computer also, only grocery. biggrin.gif
Maybe they are transitioning become like the "BestBuy" online, so gadgets only exclusive sold online. icon_idea.gif

And Laz got buyer protection also, just record a video when unboxing as a proof, I think will be fine.

I know this is not the right time to buy SSD due to the influence of RAM price hike.
But I'm looking for 1/2 TB SSD for personal storage.
Can recommend any Shopee or Lazada sellers that's selling at okay price and especially selling genuine SSD capacity size.

On the contrary, while SSD prices hasnt returned to a couple years back level, it still hasnt started rising due to RAM price hike so now is the time to buy before it starts going up.

Just get Thermalright ones. It will get the job done. PCIE 5.0 will need fan or bigger ones.

Thermalright or ID Cooling. IDC Zero is also compatible with PS5 but for PC it may be just enuff not to throttle.

I just receive my Samsung SSD 990 Evo Plus 4TB from the Lazada Lotus store.
Checked with the Magician, it says genuine and updated the Firmware.

Tested to be working, copying 500GB to it without any issue.
