Why we don't use cheap SSD's

[Pri]

So a buddy of mine was telling me about his server and how it was acting funny, it turns out that the Sandisk SSD's he had bought, one went bad and started taking his server with it. He only owned that SSD 9 months!

People ask me, why the heck do I buy Samsung Pro SSD's when they cost almost twice as much as any other SSD on the market like the ones sold by Corsair, Crucial, Sandisk etc - And this is why.

In our server we use 256GB and 512GB Samsung 850 Pro's - The best SATA SSD money can buy right now from a reliability and performance standpoint and although they cost more, they last longer!
