I bought this one instead, for it was faster, and used/mint condition for $10 more.
Thanks for the heads up again though, I was looking that one up when I came across this one. FWI Amazon has that same one you posted for the same price there as well.
OH, and this "can" be $10 less if you put $100 of that money on a gift card (Amazon, not sure about the egg), for load $100 get a $10 credit.

Mushkin Enhanced Gamma M.2 2280 4TB PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe 1.4 3D QLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MKNSSDGA4TB-D8 $799.99

Maybe not especially cheap, but for those of you that wanted a 4TB NVMe with PCI-E 4.0 x4, well, here you are. Sadly, it's QLC for this price, which is kind of "meh", but that's the way the industry is going. Plus, there's not a lot of 4TB NVMe choices right now, less so 4th-gen PCI-E.

That Western Digital 2TB drive is M.2 2280 with a SATA interface, 560MB read / 550MB write, 500TBW, 5 year limited warranty, kinda slow but an awesome deal if you need a M.2 SATA drive!

SanDisk SSD PLUS 2TB Internal SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, 2.5"/7mm, Up to 545 MB/s - SDSSDA-2T00-G26
$160 + tax with free / Prime shipping
Looks like the deal ends at Midnight tonight (Wednesday night / Thursday morning) Pacific time .
Read / Write 545MB / 450MB, SLC caching, 3 year warranty, SanDisk (Western Digital) doesn't list TBW for the SSD Plus, pretty sure that it is TLC and not QLC. Not sure how accurate this is:
54-99-27114-2T00 -> China TLC
54-99-27115-2T00 -> Malaysia TLC
54-99-26533-2T00 -> China QLC

Someone give me a good reason why I shouldn't buy max qty. (3) of these? They seem OK, spec-wise. Are they QLC?

Kingbank (Anyone ever heard of or used them???) 120GB SATA 2.5" SSD $19.99
One of the cheapest 120GB SATA SSDs that I've seen lately, although prices seem to be on a downward trend (except for Samsung's own SSDs, which seem on an upward trend).
This may be false economy, though. It it cheaper in absolute dollars, but a few days ago, I picked up a Team Group SSD 240GB SATA 2.5" for $26.99, which is a much better deal in terms of GB/$$$, and is of a larger, more usable size. 120GB is mostly just for craptops these days.
Oh, these were selling direct, and it said when I posted this, that they were shipping from USA, not China.
Looks Chinese to me.Are you a human?

and Kingbank.com . Scroll down near the bottom under Overview and you'll see a picture of the back where it says Made in China.
Because they will be a lot cheaper and faster next year.

TeamGroup CX2 SATA 2.5" SSD 512GB for $46.99. Not too bad, although the fact that you can get a 500GB NVMe (Kingston NV1 above), for $42.99, speaks volumes. Looks like SATA is mostly sort-of obsolete these days. The only thing holding NVMe back, is overall lack of slots on a modern mobo, whilst they contain usually 6 SATA ports, and SATA ports on a board take up very little floor-plan.

They need to create a SATA IV spec, I wonder if it's coming at all though...
Actually, since the USB standard has been evolving, where are the USB 3.2 SSDs?
Or maybe something like eNvMe ?

a design that allows a cheap pci-e riser to host two or more nvme drives would be killer. (i think some of the AMD 500 series allows this, though you still need a big pcie slot which aren't common on matx boards)Are you a human?

I've never seen the brand before, so I know nothing about the quality or how good (or bad) the warranty support would be if ever needed, but at $136 for close to 2TB, some here might be tempted to live dangerously.

I bought some Leven 128GB SATA "PRO 600" (with DRAM cache) SSDs for like $21.99 or so, they actually performed quite well for that size of drive, all things considered.
I don't know about durability or warranty, I've had fairly mediocre to bad luck with "China brand" SSDs. They probably buy "B grade" or worse NAND dies on the spot market, and assemble their drives with them, ala OCZ back in the "bad old days" with Spektek and whatnot.
While I don't have any first-hand experience with Leven JS-300 drives, the mere fact that they are the lowest model number of their lineup, makes me think that they are similar to Adata SU635 SSDs... their bottom-of-the-barrel DRAM-less drives.
