This one is similar to the other fanxiang one however this one has 4gb DRAM cache and a heatsink for $15 more which seems like a better deal to me
Excludes: NSW Regional, QLD Far North, QLD Regional, QLD South East

S770 is better as it has DRAM cache.
Lower number = better? Seems strange but true.
Is this TLC or QLC?
TLC
Buying one, I have bought 4 SSDs this week alone :-/
2 of the firecuda, 1 Lexar NM790 and this
This will be my new primary drive on my PC, the 2 firecudas are the new secondary drives and the NM790 for my windows laptop…
At this price, can't fault this drive at all.
Anyone had this in their ps5, thoughts?
No but i've had one of these in a 1u box that i use for my USENET cach and download drive..so far's had 310Tb written to it with no issues
I have the 2TB variant in my PS5 and so far it works a treat. I also have another 2TB in my SO's pc as a steam library/video editing scratch drive and also so far no issues. Could be just luck though, Fanxiang have hit and miss QA/QC in the past so YMMV; with that said they are an OEM manufacturer for other ssd brands including some Kioxia enterprise ssds.
Thanks, i decided to go with this. I was tempted on the lexar nm790 but i was being stubborn on price. Then remembered i had $250 in gift cards to use. We'll see.
let me insert some fanxiang into your slot…
Good review of the 2TB version up on Serve The Home: https://www.servethehome.com/fanxiang-s770-2tb-pcie-gen4-ssd…
Not sure I'd 100% trust it for anything vital, but in a gaming rig or as a cache/temp drive, it's a bargain.
This one uses InnoGrit controller, has DRAM and could be using the previous gen YMTC 128-layer NAND.
Might have old data issue:

Is this overkill for a PC Steam library? Are there better 4TB options?
It's kinda overkill but it's also cheap. Go for it
yeha honestly,get a lexar 790m
local warranty then
Games wont use more than 500mbit on average anyway apart from few outliers like Spiderman and rathcet
I have my steam library on NAS over 1 Gbps, so for gaming it would be more than enough
This or lexar nm790? Also do you guys think this would fit in a laptop
this has dram, so this one would be better as a boot drive, you can remove the heatsink to make it fit in a laptop
Thank you, so tempting just not sure about this brand
is it single sided? Many laptops won't fit a double sided SSD.
according to the OP the thickness is 0.09" = 2.3mm which means it's single sided.
Double sided according to techpowerup
Ideally, the controller and RAM from this one, but the NAND chips from NM790, and preferably from a maker who offers proper firmware updates.
Which means lexar is better?
Try finding the app / utility to check whether a new firmware is available for Lexar NM790. If you found it, let me know.
The reality is that if this price is possible with an SSD with a better controller, DRAM (pity the old YMTC NAND chips) then the recent price rise of NM790 isn't good for consumers.
Performance always looks good. But Quality will always be the let down. Keep reading reviews to keep yourself informed.
PS5?
Yes it should be perfect for the PS5 since heatsink is included.
Just realized can't buy this need to be ebay plus :(
Why can't you just sign up to ebay plus free 30 day trial?. Or if already used it the $4.99 for a month and then cancel the subscription after.
TOPH20 for the non-ebay plus peasants
This has the faulty InnoGrit IG5236 controller with YTMC 128L, which is known to cause data loss in months. Do not buy.
I want to buy until I saw your comment..
Where are you gettung this info from? Ive been looking but haven't found anything…. Was concerned as I've bought one, but can literally find nothung about this anywhere? Have a link?
"item doesn't post to you"
Seema odd to exclude Brisbane from delivery but it is what it is.
Hey mate, got all the way up to the PayPal payment screen to test this. At which point did you get the pop up?
