Adata SSD Good?

[ReefGoudswaard]

I recently build my own pc, which kept crashing :(. Some people said it was because of the bad PSU and others said that the RAM might had been defect. However we have tested all of these and i even sent my pc to the local pc store, where they would fix it. However after receiving it back after a week, the pc was even worse and i couldn't even boot up Windows. I thought it might have been a bad SSD, so i replaced it with a different old Harddrive i had laying around. After installing windows on it, everything worked totally fine! Later this week i will go to the pc store and ask for a new SSD. However i had a question. Is the brand ADATA (from which i have my SSD) a good brand? Might that be the reason for it to crash or did i just receive a defect one?

My main question is: Is ADATA a good reliable brand?

I have one and it works fine

They make decent SSDs if that's your question.

Adata are generally good, but like all brands, they're not immune to drive failure.

Yeah this exactly, no brand is immune to drive failure. However, I have used OCZ, Crucial, Adata, and Samsung SSD's and I must say none of them have ever failed or slowed down noticeably in over the year I have owned them.

They are quite good, performance might be a little below most ssd's but they are usually nicely priced

I have experience with a couple of sd cards and usb flash drives from them and i'm happy with it.

 

They work fine and perform to spec

Generally speaking, best SSD's come from Intel or Samsung nowadays :p. Adata is good mid tier brand, which have really competitive prices, especially on the high-density drives segment.

I have an Adata SP600 and have had no issues with it. You may have gotten the one that made it past QC.
