Someone please explain to me why people are buying these SSDs. There are reputable companies with great warranty policies selling SSDs for more gigabytes per dollar spent.

>they just werk
>cheap enough to buy another if it fails
>cheap enough to resell or revive an old computer
Keep in mind that these things have free worldwide shipping from China too for countries where you need to pay thrice the value of the item in shipping fees alone.

They just werk. Currently using a 128GB one in my T420.
>>
>>55116398
Cheap and a good backup plan means no shits given i guess. Thinking about getting one for my wandgos laptop because the hdd is dying.
>>
>>55116398
Some countries heavily tax electronic imports.
So in Chile a comparable SSD costs $300 , meanwhile on aliexpress it costs $150

More like $100 + free shipping from AliExpress, $300 in local currency and $350 from ebay/amazon + paid shipping.

Free shipping is a godsend for plebs like us.

>>55116398
Last I checked chink SSDs were cheaper/GB, is this really not the case anymore?

Are you all so fucking poor you can't afford an extra $6?

Are you so fucking retarded that you can't read?

No, I genuinely don't understand. 850 Pro's are some of the best SSDs you can get today. And Amazon has them for $96 with free shipping. Versus $89 from Aliexpress for some rando chink shit.
>>
>>55116983
How about you read the fucking thread

>>55116983
Eat shit and die.

>>55117013
I'm sorry that you're so fucking poor that you can't part with $6. How are you not homeless if you're penny-pinching that much?

>>55117008
I don't give a fuck what Rico from some Beaner country thinks; I want to know why >>55116570
and >>55116614 have them.

>>55117033
I have one, it was the cheapest ssd at the time.

Thank you anon for your response. I appreciate it.
>>
>>55117052
>>
>>55117057
Might I remind you there are. Also discounts ontop of that base price on aliexpress. (same anon you thanked)

I got an extra 5 bucks off the base price for a 240gb which was a good 50 to 70 dollars cheaper than namebrand
>>
>>55116398
No thank you, I'll stick with the $43 120gb or $65 240gb Sandisk ssd.
>>
>>55117076
>not using RPN mode
Plebeian
>>
>>55117076
Why would you buy it for $90 when it's at $32 on gearbest.
>>
Just looked at the prices OP, are you retarded? Might as well use an SSD that is good from an actual brand.

>>55116950
Not him but your an idiot, you can get a Sandisk for that price, and there SSDs are actually good.

Price increased, but I got mines for like 35, there are different vendors so it can drop again soon.
