Hi, I’ve been looking at ssds for cyber monday - I recognize a lot of the brands, but not fikwot. Their 2tb m.2 was on sale for $85, and it claims the read and write speeds are ~7000mb/sec. Is this safe and reliable? Can I go with this ssd, or should I go with a more reliable brand? The ssd in question is the fikwot fn955. Thank you.
Note: I noticed that this brand is newer, I can’t find any amazon reviews older than mid-2022.
Fikwot rhymes with bitrot.
Which rhymes with Shitrock 🤔🤔🤔
The name sounds SUSPICIOUSLY like one of the cheap garbage plaguing Amazon lately with the random names. Not sure I would touch it with a 10 foot pole.
Don’t buy noname memory products. It’s a lottery you never win.
Any SSD that’s not on this list https://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-specs/ is an automatic NOPE from me.
So, $85/2TB isn’t even that good of a price, I’ll raise this by one more level.
I was looking to populate a flash NAS with 4TB M.2s, and 2 non-brand SSDs came up during Amazon’s BF sale at around $138-$145. I ended up picking a set of Teamgroup MP34s at $151. Basically, for a few bucks more, I’m buying a peace of mind on a real company. The fact that you did some basic research and cannot find a history with this company should raise the red flag for you. Are you really willing to bet data security for possibly years, on saving less than $10?
