This previously popular SSD is back on sale and this time it's cheaper than before. Given the low price this is perfectly fine for use a game storage drive or inserted in a 2.5" enclosure for use as a portable SSD.

This one is offering sequential write speeds up to 500MB/s, sequential read speeds up to 480MB/s with a 300TBW and pSLC cache instead of DRAM cache.

As for the technical aspects I checked out a heap of Japanese/Russian reviews and even asked Orico directly to verify. The 1TB capacity SSDs are using Intel QLC flash memory with either SMI or Yeestor controllers depending on the batch. QLC + DRAMless is why it's so cheap compared to ones with TLC and/or DRAM.

  Have had a decent run with Orico equipment; did not know they were in the SSD market.

  If they could produce a 4tb for around $250 or a 5tb for around $315, could be the end of portable hard disc drives.

    Slowly slowly getting there. Seeing $1000 8TB SSDs is scary.

  Even though this offer has expired, the old price shows momentarily when clicking on the item. (It shows $63.99, not 62.99 for about half a second, and then updates to $102.95) - from this link: https://oricotechs.com/products/orico-y-20-sata-ssd?variant=…

  The interesting thing is that when clicking on the 4TB variant, it shows $199.99 before correcting. Was there a previous special at $199.99 or is there an upcoming special at this price?

  Next to determine if Orico SSD quality is good enough. There was a post of reddit (which has since been retracted), stating "Avoid this brand, ORICO (奥睿科) storage is trash tier even in Chinese local market".
