KingSpec mSATA SSD
Introduction
I have been looking at mSATA SSDs at AliExpress. These may not be the same quality as the Samsung / Crucial counterparts, but for an average user, it might just fit the bill over, say a 3-4 year expected usage period.
Here’s one - serial XXXXXX 361094
smartctl output
Note: This test was performed with the mSATA SSD in an mSATA-USB adapter. I’ll post another update when I get a chance to fit this in a computer with an mSATA socket.
