Entire first page of comments is 1 star reviews about drive failures in less than a year and being asked to ship it back to China. Let's look at the review titles..



They Want me to send it to China
Failed after 2 weeks
worked for a year
cheap yet over priced
You get what you pay for
failed after only about a year
Died
SSD Bricked After 6 months
Unfortunate
Already dead
Junk
Drive Died After 8 Months
Failed in 4.5 months
Great Price but Terrible Proformance ("It lasted for about a month and completely died")
Failed in 6 months
Cheap, on all aspect
Works good until it doesn't
Files became corrupted over a few weeks
Wont let me install windows os
Waste of money
Unreliable, died after a few months
Junk
Failed after 3 months
Died after a week of service

Why would you recommend this like it's a reasonable alternative? It isn't just slower, it's a piece of crap.
Another 10% off with education discount through Samsung. Brings it to $225
The HP FX900 has the atrocious InnoGrit IG5236 controller which is known to brick SSDs.

If for no other reason, tempted to bite because of tariffs. What do you think? SSD prices on the rise for a while?

For a similar price I got the HP fx900 pro which has dram cache and I found it better max sustained writes as a web developer. This was my #2 option though

It could be junk. I dont have experience with with that specific ssd. To be fair though a lot of people leaving bad reviews for 4tb drive failure of all brands have no understanding that most laptops dont have even close to proper cooling capabilities to handle 4tb m2 drives.
Imo only way to keep temps down permanently with 4tb ssd is if factory designed laptops have memory cooled same way the cpu is cooled.
I had immediate overheat shutoff problems as soon as I installed my 4tb Crucial. Temps averaged 27° with 2tb but had temps at 90° immdiately with 4tb. I added case fan holes, copper cooling plate, and got a new fan stand with stronger fans than my old stand. Temps average 50° after mods. Havent used it a lot off fan stand but it hasnt shut off once since adding the case holes and cooling plate. After experience with laptop concluded adding 4tb to my PS5 a bad idea. Temps under the ssd on my laptop when not on fan stand are far hotter than anywhere else.
Anyone adding 4tb to laptop should at minimum add a copper cooling plate. I guarantee that 99% of 4tb failures of all brands are from overheating.

I'm close to maxing out my 1TB. I hope this 4TB will last me through the lunacy that we're seeing.

Slower, probably less reliable. But that price! Nice find.

the 4TB WD SN850X goes on sale for $235-$250 regularly. it makes no sense getting this crap over the 850X

if you think the worst thing about that drive is speed, then you are horribly misinformed
