Review on πŸ’» Zheino 120GB SSD A3 2.5 inch SATA III 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive (7mm) for Notebook Desktop PC - Boost Performance and Storage Capacity by Mike Newbill

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Ideal hard drive for OS updates in older PCs

Attached CrystalDiskMark - decent performance for the current price of $21. Doesn't outperform high-performance SSDs, but at a much lower price. Question to the vendor: I want to install one on an early SATA II PC (used daily) that does NOT have an AHCI (and therefore no native TRIM). Support). I understand it will be limited to <300MB/s but I'm concerned about further performance and reliability degradation over time due to lack of TRIM NCQ etc.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Some nuances
