You should compare legit European/American ICs with their Chinese clones which they fakely label as the other ICs, for some things people don’t notice, but something a lot of people do notice is they’re extraordinarily shit

Must be all of them. I got a san disk SSD years ago (when sky lake was first release so 10 years ago?) and it completely died in less than 12 months, I was actually speechless. I had to fight the company I bought it from to get it returned but eventually they accepted it, and sent it bask to san disk for analysis… moral of the story: never buy a san disk SSD. They have OK SD cards, but that’s about it.

Ironically I still have a working OCZ drive with a Sand Force controller that’s long outlived that san disk POS and the sand force controller was well known for failure and being awful
