Review on Silicon Power 256GB Gen3X4 SP256GBP34A60M28 by Eric Garron

Good specs, good price BUT poor performance. When I used the free Crystal Disk Info utility to check the actual specs and health of this NVMe SSD, I found that right out of the box it had already lost 1% when I first used it after cloning a 40GB drive onto this new SSD. Of his life. ! This is unacceptable. On the second day, after several restarts, he used ANOTHER 1% of his life. These drives die slowly at 1% per day and only last about 3-4 months with normal use! It's outrageous. If you want a budget SSD that will last a while, avoid this brand. In comparison, I've been using a Western Digital Blue NVMe with 6 re-clones for almost 2 months and it's still showing 100% life remaining. This is how these SSDs should work - not lose 1% per day.
