If the electricity fails, it's gone
ssds can break physically too
If you open it up and wreck it that way, yes
"oops that solder point just came loose"
While there are no moving parts in an SSD, the semiconductor components can fail. For example, a NAND die, the SSD controller, capacitors, or other passive components can -- and do -- slowly wear out or fail entirely.
"If the electricity fails, it's gone"
No, its not. I unplugged my pc many times before.
"oops because of chinkshit engineering this solder point being loose just caused the whole ssd to wipe itself"
@trackky Referring to when it's interrupted hastily during an operation
"oops the ssd just shorted out between a data pin and a power pin"
It might corrupt an entire sector
SSDs require a capacitor and power supplies, which are vulnerable to malfunctions — especially in the case of a power surge or a power failure. In fact, in the case of a power failure, SSDs have been known to corrupt existing data too, even if the drive itself hasn’t failed completely.
Those sounds like issues you'd find out about right away, though
Just like with anything else
@Jignx that's the most common failure in the good SSDs you buy here, yes, but with chink ssds you never know if the soldering's shitty or something
We're talking about the possibility of it dying after a year of data storage
i mean HDD
In which the risk is significantly lower than an HDD, for instance
Even branded ones
Hell, Seagate had a 30% failure rate with their last batch
First year, that is
SSDs can and will fail
30% ?! that's retarded !
but has a lower failure rate than HDDs
My bad
It was ~43
remember when Seagate bought Maxtor and IBM Deskstar
so it's just the 3TB model, right ?
it's a sign of high quality HDDs!
Anyway, just like with most Chink shit
Don't go too cheap
I've had a Kingfast SSD for 6 years now, I think
Works fine still
ayy lmao, my seagate 3tb external hdd also suddenly failed after 2.5 years
it suddenly went POP
but muh papal 180 day warranty
never again seagate
it just clicked after that
click, click click click
