minus-squareclaymore@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 months agoSamsung SSDs seem fine, I actually use one of the cheap SATA ones as a boot drive, but they had a firmware bug a while ago that destroyed 990 and 980 pro NVMe SSDs. And I dislike Samsung in general so I’d rather not buy from them if I can avoid it.
