Amazon Deals and Discounts - 2025

I am not blaming you buddy the comment was only to let him know that sometimes even big brands might not have a service center in your city then they become bad for you (your location), Big cities, even normal ones don’t face such issues most of the times.

Haven’t heard of it previously so no comment on the quality.

They aren’t the manufacturers. But the SSD itself manufactured YMTC (Chinese manufact) and their clients are **Lexar/HP **etc. The controller is MAP1602A Falcon Lite which is also used in Silicon Power, Lexar, Patriot, Adata, TeamGroup etc. SSDs. As the NAND is coming from Chinese brand not sure about it’s quality.

Their enclosures are always cheap but never reliable or performant. You gamble for the price.

They branched into SSDs and keep changing the controllers and NAND based on cost from local Chinese suppliers, so situation is the same here. They also seem to be operating through traders here who import the units from them, so doubt you will get any kind of functional warranty.

You are right, because I faced the same in Tenda router. Where I had to ship it to Ahmedabad and waited about a month to receive a replacement.

Amazon sale live (non referral link): www.amazon.in

Looks like a Referral link since it contains ref=peajanart25 in the URL.

Now I wonder, why do the Mods not have an affiliate program?
I’d have no issues buying from TE’s own affliate program if it means it’s the same price for me anyway, and TE gets some benefits out of it.

There isn’t a problem with sharing affiliate links but if affiliate links aren’t allowed then people will only post the links of genuinely good deals and if affiliate links are allowed then people will start posting links for their own benefit and would also post links which aren’t actually deals
I have been part of some Facebook and Telegram groups that initially started with just posting great deals, but now since they have gotten those affiliate commissions, they can’t resist but just post normal listings as deals.

I did not add it. I literally opened amazon.in and clicked the homepage banner and pasted link. Did everything in incognito window. I too saw that and hence changed it to just amazon.in (almost immediately after my first post) and nothing else.
Seems you quoted me immediately after my post but before the edit. Talk about timing :slight_smile:

Everything else is good performance wise but a con & a big con at that, post cache speeds are hdd level.

Edit: Ordered & then cancelled after looking deeply into the reviews which led to the conclusion that avg write speed of 167MB/s to fill the entire drive while having cache speeds of 4.5GB/s means post cache speeds drop to double digits meaning native qlc flash has very poor quality write speeds. I could live with even hdd level sequential speeds of 170-180MB/s but double digit sequential speeds on any ssd drive under any conditions in today’s time is simply unacceptable.

If I am not wrong then the referral link is for a specific products only so if we paste link of some promotions as in your case then its should be fine to add full url

I guess it works for others too. You just need to go through referral link to reach amazon and then anything you buy will result in referrer getting commission.

MX Mechanical Mini - 8.5k with SBI CC

ref by itself is just an internal reference within Amazon and is not a user referral. The latter has tag in the URL as well.
