The silicon power drives all went read-only. Power cycling never brought them back, and they had various levels of lost. It was clear at least one chip failed and the drive was doing it's best to at least let me recover what I could off of it, but given how many went this way, I just gave up entirely on the brand.
I've only bought the pro level of the Samsung consumer drives (nvme m.2) and they've been stellar. I have no experience with their enterprise drives. I also wouldn't buy drives off of eBay. I don't think of eBay as cheaper than amazon/b&h/etc, and the risk of a fake is just so much higher on eBay.
