Yes, my first SSD so I don't have experience, but I'm happy

Pros: So it offers an SLC cache. I can't compare to other SSDs much, but it seems like pretty good quality. Considering various complaints about other low end brands and models, I'm happy with my choice.
Cons: It IS TLC NAND, if you don't know about the differences in types of NAND and the manufacturers of them and the controllers, do try and read a little. If you don't need cutting edge and are going from a MHDD, there is no question though, this is better.
Overall Review: It seems to me that there is STILL a bit of uncertainty about the technology of NAND and that some complain of various problems even with major brands (not this one exactly) and how good their warranty support is. I do not regret getting this Sandisk in light of the issues I've read. You cannot really depend on a performance review by itself to know the quality, because how well supported with warranty and long term support a product has is just as big a deal. I haven't heard bad stories about Sandisk, there may be some, but so far it's been several weeks and all is good.
Comfortable, Light, So so sound

Pros: I have a size 7 head, not too big. The fit is comfortable and light, much more comfortable than all my other phones, and it's not a heat trap. The sound? Well, it is OK. Very forward Middle Mids, somewhat weak highs that are very very recessed. Bass is just meh. I got the Android one and it works as advertised, make sure you get the right one for YOUR phone ecosystem. Comfort seems to be a strong suit for these.
Cons: I don't see markings for Right and Left, something a LOT of headsets do poorly, I don't understand why manufacturers refuse to mark sets well and easy to see in the dark. Sound is disappointing, but should be very good for voice calls. No 1/4" adapter came with the phones, and that is just cheapskating out, it should have come with them.
Overall Review: Disappointing, but in no major way. Sound is just meh.
Got this on sale, good value

Pros: I got this on sale, it's good value. It checks off a number of things on the list: 1. small profile 2. Will take a second drive, at least I think so. 3. Uses NVME drive and is upgradeable. 4. Auto on. 5. lit keyboard 6 fingerprint 7 Decent quality for so cheap 8. I was able to put Linux Mint on it without a headache, no more Windows, yay! 9. Keyboard feels good. 10 Will take a single slot memory upgrade. I waited a year for a deal like this because I'm on a fixed income.
Cons: The WIFI didn't work out of the box with the current kernel in Linux Mint, so I had to go to mainline 6.2 to get it working. I thank that developer for that driver!!! The fingerprint doesn't work in Linux Mint, except it might be possible to make it work, I don't know yet. Eventually it will. In Windows 11 it works, but not consistently. You have to touch it just right. But when it works it's great. However it is said that fingerprint is not a very secure method of locking a computer. Linux is all about security and foolproof-ness.
Overall Review: If you can get it on sale, it's a great device.
Arrived Defective, was compensated

Pros: Some parts are sturdy like the roller spider and the seat frame.
Cons: Seat is hard as a rock. Arm rests are hard as a rock. Screw holes for frame did not line up with seat nuts. Only able to force 3 screw in. Rollers won't roll or turn well, very hard moving around with chair while seated. Arm rests are cheap plastic and fragile. Head rest way too far back. I agreed to repair it and live with it, I was asked to not give a bad review, but on further thought, that would be dishonest.
Overall Review: Even with the adjusted price, I wouldn't buy this again.
Happy but some issues

Pros: Beautiful board with most of the ideal features like Intel LAN, why they stopped marketing it is beyond me.
Cons: BSODS. Turned out to be original ASUS 5way software, updated to win 10 and updated 5way software and only 1 BSOD since going to win10 this last summer.
Good value

Pros: Sound is relatively balanced, bass is punchy with the right fitting, Treble is just there, it isn't overwhelming. Fit with biflang tips is very good, one of the best I've tried. Cable is very sturdy and cable microphonics is minimal. Very attractive. Has in line universal volume control, mic, and control button, so will work with iPhone or other phones too. Cans angled nicely. Very sturdy, flat cable (I cannot emphasize how important a good cable is enough). Bass is not boomy, but rather nicely punchy.
Cons: upper mids, maybe some highs in some recordings borderline harsh/tinny. Cans protrude from ears a bit. In line volume control seems cheap and I expect it will fail before the cans or the cable does. Upper treble seems recessed a little, not quite sparkly enough compared to more expensive phones. Left and Right markings, as is the case on too many IEMs, is way too hard to read, but since there is an inline mic/control, you can go by that to know which ear is which.
Overall Review: These phones work well in recordings that aren't too complex, too busy. Bass is very pleasing and lower mids have nice fidelity. One again, the flat cable is a very nice cable and my feeling is the cable will last longer than other IEMs I've owned that developed breaks in them (after gentle use). with biflanges isolation is pretty darned good. Fit with biflanges is next to perfect.
