The fine-print is important here. Crucial (IIRC) advertises some of its low-end consumer series with power-loss protection… against internal data corruption of the Flash Translation Layer. AKA "We won't completely brick the entire device if you pull power!" Err… thank you? Why are you advertising this as feature?
- imtringued 10y agoBecause OCZ SSDs used to have a failure rate of more than 50% caused by powerloss.
- Something1234 10y agoReally,if this is true I don't think I will buy another OCZ SSD. Which brand is the best for reliability right now?
- creshal 10y agoOCZ already went bankrupt over that scandal and was bought up… in 2013.
