Thinking to get 240gb... Using it for Google chrome, Microsoft words, excel, teams, zoom etc..
Ain't gonna game on it.. 240gb should be enough right



Current hdd using crystal disk info
Caution
Reallocated sector 18
Unallocated 450

Restarted the laptop to run a second time, same reading..


Oh and which sales period have the best discount?

been using Transcend SSD270 for ~5 years or more
for office applications, everyday on at least 8 hours including weekend
wear out indicator is 95% (when new is 100%)

bang for buck and still a major speed upgrade from slow-ass HDD

Just normal no gaming 240GB enough

xpg ok

my trandscend life not that good

rekomen hp s700 serie
can choose sata & nvme

WD BLUE 5 yr warranty

Using Kingston
Very happy

120GB is more than enough. I regret buying too much (240GB).

How cheap is it

Bukan you asked the same shit last time ka?

lol. i botted my ram from spaylater also hahaha

Yeah

SAMSUNG la

my transcend ssd from my first gaming pc around 2012-2013 ish till now and is the only pc component still remaining in my current hardware

My ssd kenot boot

Check bios tiba2 ssd dah tukar nama jadi satafirm s11..

both same jer, buy cruxial better

512mb 760p below rm300. 280gb 900P below Rm550

So I only choose dramless 900P

Latest generation of DRAM less ssds already closed the gap significantly. Majority of regular users will not feel the difference. There are significant cost savings for DRAM less designs I think.

Last year 11/11 sandisk ssd plus rm115 only. Sekarang rm155 dekat shopee tapi ada coins cashback la.

kingstone

Which kinda ssd using the latest version of dreamless?

My mother used cheapo kingston a400 for 2.5 years edi
Still ok je

no need latest dramless SSD. Old dramless SSD is king like 900P

Samsung Evo 250GB SSD... RM169

5 Yrs warranty.

No need to think.

You are another victim of Phison S11 controller firmware issue.

https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/9...11_controllers/

https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comment...now_what_gives/


Now when I buy SSD, I always checked which controller it is using and stayed far far away from Phison.

Buy from shopee?
Or can get adata 250gb for 130 🤔

but this is the most popular and most huge most cheap 3rd party SSD assembly factory solution.

A400? Many ktard don recommend use it

Kingston A400 also using the same Phison S11 controller.

There are reports of firmware corruption too.

Kingston only 3 yrs warranty. For me ... more warranty is worth it.

Yingchu SSD.

Any ssd that has DRAM.

using pny ssd cs900 for 4 years already..same price i guess..

I have just bought a SU 800 512GB very very fast

ayam poor ayam only can afford SU630 SU650

630 vs 650 any diff ah?

But samsung 860evo. Only rm150 for 240gb at shopee

Sambung dream sana, just buy a mx500 and a external case for it

ayam also suppork mx500

The newer versions of ssds with PCIe gen3 x4 NVMe and above like WD blue SN550 are quite value for money in my opinion.

Ts better mention laptop
Ppl suggest pcie how you plug

Laptop boss

So far oni one mentioned for pc right haha

Dunno ayam see cheap ayam sapu for use as temp drive only

My Luck

RM249

You are going to use the SSD on your work laptop, so it is NOT logical to save an insignificant amount yet end up in the same situation again; working drive corruption. No one is asking you to buy the most expensive one, just something more assuring like those listed below will do, no particular order.

Transcend SSD230S 512gb
Adata SU800 512gb
HP S700 Pro 512gb
Crucial MX500 500gb

Read up on the spec on these SSDs....... higher capacity will normally come with higher TBW rating, hence try to get 512gb or above if possible

any suggestion for NVME pcie ssd?

plan to put in external casing and use as dual boot

How much ssf u need for gaming/video editing/graphic design?

Just top up a bit get the Samsung 860 Evo

No need to think so much.

1tb je. I just got Crucial MX500. A little faster than my Kingston but at least now I can finally upgrade to Windows 10

Then if adata su 800 vs crucial mx 500 vs Samsung Evo 360 which more reliable

Oh and su 800 is dram?

How about Samsung 860 evo ssd?

Get a samsuck 4piece o mind

Really dunno what's on your mind. Got bujet then take 860 Evo lor....... if want slightly cheaper then Adata or Transcend lor....

All SSD in the list got DRAM cache.

i found this seller sell for 154 for 250gb..

What answer do you want? If you have budget for that then buy it. Find a nice case for it

Need to buy case? I tot just unscrew the hdd inside my laptop and screw this ssd can already right?

ayam use WD blue ssd ok saja

what about panther? Is that a good SSD?

cheap ass kingston a1000

Oh, i thought you plan to clone drive and etc

I using that on my office lappy.
Seems ok so far

Whats the age of that ssd?

I dont know, came with the 2nd hand laptop. Must be a few years already.

looks like this is going to be a good reccomendation thread for all of us to not get cheap ssd!

going to buy a new Samseng NVME once my budget permit

Too bad almost all low end ssd are powered by phison controller.

Thanks.

Just buy Samsung SSD. No need to worry. Your data you decide worth to be cheapskate or not....
