74% praised for its rugged durability, while 26% experienced hardware failure
I have had previous experience with SP drives and they always work well.
One of our drives failed at arrival due to a CRC error. It's possible that it made it past QA, but more likely it was damaged during shipping.
I noticed that the internal solid-state drive lost 1% of its life right out of the box. This is unacceptable and it may not last long in normal use.
76% praised for its lightning-fast read and write speeds, but 24% experienced slower performance
I want a 128gb SSD for my linux machine, but I am not sure about the read/write speed.
I tested the internal solid-state drives in two different mobos (B550 chipset) and found that they never reached the advertised speed.
69% appreciated the silent operation
If you try the drive as an external, different enclosures might be worth trying. The drive should work for you unless your use case is similar.
