cheap and reliability don't come together unfortunately
Lexar is a known brand once owned by Micron USA but sold to China's Longsys long time ago
NQ100 is QLC DRAM-less drive without HMB buffer, that's why it's cheap

better go find other SSDs with DRAM, or if DRAM-less (cheaper), must have HMB

any recommendation?

There is a reason why their only giving you a 3 year warranty when decent NVME SSD gives 5 years as standard.
