If you don't know much about silicon power, they seem to be a decent HK company, make sure to check the thousands of amazon reviews.

From what I can see, the USB and SD cards have thousands of excellent reviews. The SSD used to have great reviews until they changed the manufacturing to be lower quality, so the recent reviews arent great. The RAM seems to be recently released, so not many reviews yet.

      too low, apparently.

      I would not risk it, this is a gigantic lemon product, stick with Crucial, Intel, or Samsung if you want the best reliability.

      • Poor sandisk haha

      • Wow, 40% failure rate? Are we sure these don't have "Maxtor" under the label?

    • Yeah as scrimshaw said, reviews of the SSD aren't great so maybe it's the best idea to avoid it.

      Good ol bait and switch by Silicon Power

      • Bad reviews all seem to be for the MLC version. TLC seems to be ok, not the same speeds as an Evo 850 but not too bad.

    • the chip used in the 250GB are very high yield now and can be made at lower end plants. The more interesting segment is the 1TB which use the new memory and controllers, and I believe there is a company that sells 2TB drives for approx $500 US.

      performance and reliability …. there are only a few manufactures of the controllers and a few who make the memory chips ….. so the reliability would be based on whose production line is used (often outsourced) to solder the chips on and how good their firmware is.

      reviews are always tricky as it doesn't quantify how many were bad compared to how many were manufactured. Might be after sales service that quietens intel, samsung and crucial issues rather than how reliable they are.

      all my SSD's are either crucial or samsung due to price at the time, not speed or reviews.

    • I've just received the S55 960GB (TLC), it works fine but obviously I can't comment on the lifespan, speed is superb for the price (510 read, 490 write), tested with AS SSD.

    Now to find a business case for a 128GB USB stick.

  • I bought the 128GB Blaze USB stick quite a while ago from a different deal posted here. Not the fastest around but fast enough I can't complain, it's very well built and comes with a lifetime warranty. No regrets getting it.
