I saw ppl posting that WD SSDs appearing Cold Data Storage problems when I was looking to shop for my game SSDs from reddit/buildapcsales.

Had anyone experienced this kind of problems?

Here is the link of review about the problems happened on 840 EVO

 

Samsung 840 EVO read speed drops on old-written data in the drive | Overclock.net

 

😅If this kind of issues happened on WD SSDs, hopefully they would fix them quickly.

 

Just ordered 1TB SN750 for my storage drive of PoRns and games, hope WD wouldn't let me down.

I use a Hynix 1tb ssd and it's great. My suggestion is, go for one of those. 

I would return my SN750 and get one from Samsung, Intel, Hynix or Micron.

 

I initially made this choice because of the 10% cashback from WD stores. But data is more important to me anyway.

There is a considerable amount of posts reporting this issue on the Chinese nga forum as well as Baidu tieba. I summarized the situation in this LTT forum post.

Glad I saw this, I was looking at getting an SSD as a part in a future PC and the WD was the best deal for a 500Gb SATA SSD.

Haha, glad to see that.

 

Honestly, I had doubted about this in my mind.

Which one is more important, data or price.

 

Then I compare the price of 970EVO and sn 750, as well the WD Blue and the 860EVO, find the 1 tb version price difference is roughly $15, which is about one Burger King meal price for myself.

 

So I do the math again, 1TB WD Blue + 1 burger king meal = 1TB Samsung 860EVO.

 

I would go Samsung then.
