just wondering if verbatim are a reliable brand as i dont want to buy a s*** ssd and for it to die :/

 

[ruthless_villain]

i dont know anything about their SSDs but their USB sticks are decent, i have one that is 4 years old and still works fine

verbatim are a world class company, they are the ONLY manfuacturer of dvd's i will use.
as for ssd's they use the industry standard format for building ssd's but add their usual "expertise" in reliability apparantly

 

[SavageCupcake]

so it sounds a pretty good brand shall be getting one of these tomorrow maybe

They are a pretty old brand but a good one with a good track record.

Well, they are discontinued now. It's strange because I saw RawZ post a topic about the Verbatim SSD's as well.

Discontinued just means they are out of sock or have reached the max amount of pre orders.

I have some Verbatim external HDD enclosures and they've been working fine for the last couple of years

Oh right. Normally 'discontinued' is used when something is no longer sold.

they also tend to use discontinued when they have no idea as to when stock will be replenished so they don't have masses of "back orders",
kinda makes sense when you look at it this way lol
