It seems like it's only exclusive in SEA region; however it is cheap - only about $89. (240GB)
Is this SSD good?

The speeds aren't amazing, keep in mind that although it is m.2 it seems to be m.2 sata, so you wont get any speed increases over a traditional SSD

This is one of the cheapest 240-256GB SSD in my country.

The brand is fine, like I said, just be aware that you are getting normal SSD speeds not m.2. If you are happy with that its pretty decent price for a 240gb SSD - Out of interest, how much is crucial MX300? I know Malaysian prices will be different, but a 275gb MX300 can normally be had for around $88

The MX300 275GB (M.2) is about $106
