It should be noted that the SanDisk Ultra II series is less stable then the SSD PLUS, because of the MLC and TLC technology. (They use Multi Layer Cells - so they are cheaper to produce, and less stable) I'm not saying that they will crash, but it may be worth spending a couple of extra bucks on the SSD Plus for the same drive capacity.
EDIT: After doing a bit of research, SanDisk has implemented caching technology in the Ultra II to make up for this (partially)

What's the scoop on these OCZ SSDs?

I believe they were bought off by Toshiba, should be beneficial for their ssd chips

I did some research, they use TLC

It seems if I want a safe SLC its either going to be very expensive or very small capacity.

Samsung Evo doesn't cut it for you?

It uses MLC, doesn't that bother you.

Not that much, I find their drives pretty reliable. Either way I don't use SSD for data that isn't backed up anywhere else, SSD is for speed and portability on laptops that would otherwise fail on every slight impact.

This thread should be changed to SSD Master Thread, if there are any mods available.

@dh data recovery. Have you seen any good deals on mid size SSDs?

pixi · « **Reply #17 on:** November 29, 2015, 02:25:27 AM »

I actually bought this sandisk sdd, isn't a good one? What's the problem with it? Should I return it? What should I buy instead?
