    Literally never heard of them. With all the random bullshit companies dumping crap into the market, if you don’t have good name recognition these days, it’s just assumed you are some random Chinese product clone with dubious quality.

    This is fine when I purchased my knockoff Dyson vacuum that still works great, but I wouldn’t trust all my data to a company I dont recognize.

    Plus I’d imagine they have no brand awareness in the consumer space vs. the giants like WD, Seagate, Kingston, Crucial, Samsung, etc.

    I didn’t even realize Intel’s SSD business still survived as a separate company. Apparently they’re owned by SK Hynix.

      Buying their 1 tb drives has been my prefered way to to do backup sync and distro hopping for a while now, with a $20 cradle, and a wallet of these things, you never have to leave anything behind.

    Ah man, that’s a shame. The P41 was one I remembered for being a surprisingly good value despite being a drive with good performance. I never had the chance of buying one, since I don’t have a free slot, and it wasn’t worth replacing my existing drive.
