    is it foolish to use this as a main drive, whats the feedback from those who grabbed one from one of the past deals?

    or do you think best bet is just to use this as a games drive?

    • altomic on 05/02/2019 - 09:44

      feedback on aliexpress is very positive.
      mostly 5 star reviews stating good speed.
      the 4 star reviews don't really give any details feedback.

        Earliest review was Nov 2018, not long enough to prove the reliability. Some feedback comments mentioned very average packaging (and was a reason a guy give it a 3 stars). Even some 5 stars comments had photos showing average packaging. To be fair though, the packaging I got from local sellers here for Samsung, Micron SSDs are average too (though the cardboard boxes for the SSD did arrive okay for ones from local sellers). I guess you can get with sub-par packaging for SSDs.

        $110 delivered is attractive for 960GB. Though the $154 deal (after cashback) for the recent Samsung 1TB SSD deal made it a bit hard to get very excited about this one.

          $95AUD (including GST) after 20% cashback which makes this 960GB SSD a very good buy.

          And if you manage to get this item delivered to another country which doesn't charge any GST and purchase it via Aliexpress App and 28degreescard, you will only need to pay this 960GB SSD around $83 AUD after cashback! That's what I have done :)

              @HappyXD: Possible that they have shipped it to a place where it will be forwarded on. There are services which do this - but probably not worth it for such a small amount. But the forwarder could also be a foreign office, family member, or friend - who was already going to forward parcels on and will just add this them.

              • HappyXD on 05/02/2019 - 16:40

                @macrocephalic: oh, thats true. I was thinking a forwarder, which in this case didnt sound like it was worth.

                @fchis: Okay guys… Here is a very critical review of one of their SSDs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLMCWdrL5pI

                Below is the summary:

                • Despite claiming it has Nanya DRAM chip, when the guy opened it, there wasn't one.
                • Silicon motion SM2258XT found inside the one he reviewed - that's a DRAMless controller.
                • Spec Tek NAND chips used, but that's not the worst part.
                • All NAND chips have 3 bars marked (defaced). According to Spec Tek Support, those chips had mechanical failures but often tested electronically good (?). They are sold at a discount BUT cannot be RMA'd (i.e. no warranty from Spec Tek).
                • Spec Tek advise using them for USB type application as they may not meet the performance requirements.

                Sorry that I am doing this, partly because last time I trusted what they wrote and misinformed OZBers that it has DRAM. I feel the need to let people know that you cannot trust what's written on their product specs page. I don't own any Reeinno products and that was NOT my review though it makes sense.

                Have realistic expectation before you purchase.

                  @netsurfer: As is typical for $15 drives in their lower end models. Even the low level HP/Lenovo ones in China are the same, though made by 3rd parties.

                  When my 960GB arrives I'll disclose the speeds and if they're shithouse I'll even crack the case 😉

                  • netsurfer on 06/02/2019 - 11:29

                    @Clear: Thanks, clear. Photos would be nice. Would like to know the NAND chip, the controller and whether there is any DRAM chip (doubtful).
                    Quite interested to know what's actually inside, but not willing to spend ~$100 (lots of bills to pay, don't have spare cash at the moment).

                    • Clear on 06/02/2019 - 11:31

                      @netsurfer: My 120GB Reeinno reflects the YouTube video very well but as it's being used as an external drive the speed issues aren't important.

                • mrhugo on 06/02/2019 - 00:47
                  +2

                  @netsurfer: SpecTek is Micron Technology. I don't know if SpecTek are fabless or just taking whatever didn't meet MT's standards. According to the video these are AS grade (full spec) but usually with a physical fault (hence the strike outs). This basically means that they're sold cheap-as-chips because of the additional steps during manufacture, i.e re-ball any missing or damaged balls.

                  I personally wouldn't use it for anything critical. But if it was plugged into the TV for media then I'm sure it's fine. Nothing to really lose.

                  Don't expect it to be fast because that controller is limited the performance, but at least the NAND is full spec.

                  Be concerned when there are NO Lazer marketing on the package. It's very common for these packages not to be marked when they drop below a usable spec. BTW package is just another name for the chip.

                  • netsurfer on 06/02/2019 - 11:42

                    @mrhugo: Thanks for that. Spectek started as a component recovery arm of Micron. Apparently, the components they recovered / re-conditioned are not limited to just Micron ones. Now I know what happens to some of those SSDs which got RMA'ed.

                    Obviously, we don't always need super fast SSD in every usage. Even Micron released BX200 and BX500 (low cost SSDs with sub-par NAND). Though even those 2 had 3 year warranty. Spectek products normally have 1 year warranty only - with these defaced ones having no warranty.

                    These could still be a viable gaming SSD. Let's face it, games don't constantly do reads on the storage device (otherwise it will be way too slow and no matter how fast SSD is, there is no way it can replace video RAM).

                • fchis on 06/02/2019 - 11:30

                  @netsurfer: That's alright.

                  I only use it to replace my old laptop HDD (i'll put the old one in the dvd writer drive as a backup) and it's mainly for browsing Ozbargain and watch youtube videos so I suppose it's not a big loss if it happened to screw up in 3 years. But I do hope it'll last a long time tho given it has 960GB storage and it's their higher end model of SSD.

    • hambuger on 05/02/2019 - 22:28

      Reliability aside you'd really notice a difference in speed using it as an OS drive. These things seem pretty crap on random small r/w or whatever that important test is. Like going from a WD blue to a decent Samsung or whatever

      If you read reviews on Chinese SSDS at Amazon, you will see that just about all of them have a much higher failure rate than brand name SSDs. Most of my electronics are Chinese brands, but I wouldn't buy a Chinese SSD again. My first SSD was a Kingfast and it lasted for well of 40 terrabytes of writes, which is okay, but a lot less than advertised life.

          That's true. But they use better quality components, which is why on the whole they have a much lower failure rate.

      • RJK on 05/02/2019 - 22:40

        We've bought a lot of Kingspec devices from official stores on Aliexpress over the past 6 years with nil problems. They perform well and are still working.

        Overall we've purchased 2 internal SSDs (64gb, 1tb), 5 portable SSDs (256gb, 1tb), and 3 SSD flash drives.

        We used deals and favourable exchange rates, paying well below equivalent costs in Australia. We also have bought Crucial, Sandisk, Samsung, & Toshiba when it suited us too.

        • stephendt on 11/02/2019 - 11:38

          We also bought a lot of kingspecs (around 20 SSDs) failure rates have been very high - mostly due to bad sectors and silent corruption. I don't recommend them, and I don't trust them for anything anymore. Thankfully all the systems we use them in have daily incremental image backups.

      I bought one for my ps4 slim last year from taobao.
      No issues so far, and bootup + loading times are a lot faster despite the SATA 2 interface.
      In some cases, loading times have halved over the 1TB WD blue which it replaced.

      See the picture on the drive of the wolf howling? That's the same noise you'll make when you lose 960GB of data.

      Jokes aside, they might be fine, but it is a new product. If they have used flash chips that have many bad blocks, modern flash controllers are pretty good at detecting these and re-mapping them. If you fill it up, it might run out of blocks to remap to, as this has up to 64GB allocated for that. However some chip failure modes are catastrophic and will lead to lost blocks.

      There's a seller coupon you can claim for $2 USD on the item page as well as the pre checkout page for all orders above $49 USD.

      That brings it down to $81.35 which is the price i'm sitting on atm. My order went through successfully, hope that helps!

    These cheaper drives have no DRAM of any significance, so when you write more than a small amount of data the rate drops significantly. Some drives drop to below that of a HDD.

    I have been surprised how noticeable the difference was between slower SSD and a good, but not really fast SSD like a Samsung EVO 840 in every day use. Once you start moving many large files the difference is even greater. I am not even comparing to the super fast SSDs.

      I think it is best not to mention Samsung 840 EVO. The infamous old data read issue and the eventually second patched firmware fix (which is more of a workaround).
      I experienced the old data read issue on Samsung 840 and believe me, that was terrible. I was somewhat glad that my Samsung 840 died within 12 months and I got a decent warranty replacement for it. I did lose all the data on the drive (though I already lost faith in that SSD long before it did a sudden death on me).
