Cheap, but reliable SSDs? - eviltoast

I want to upgrade some of my older machines with some new, high(er) capacity SSDs (SATA and nvme). I don’t need super high speeds, just something in the TB range in terms of storage.

Problem is, there’s so much garbage out there, I can’t really tell, which SSD is inexpensive and reliable and which is just utter garbage.

I thought about buying new, but last gen Samsung/WD SSDs.

Intenso and Fanxiang both seem to have been around for a few years, but reviews seem to be mixed.

    I had one around 2012-2013 and it failed on me. I had issues with it throughout its life but I didn’t realise it was the drive until I upgraded to a Samsung.
