Wow, that came here a lot quicker than expected. Looks to be a good step in between Mechanical and SSD storage. From the benchies I've seen it seems to be a winner. If I had a laptop I'd be getting one, but alack and alas I are poor (and see no reason to get one).

OK, nevermind, apparently it's a piece of junk. It's a seagate to boot, so I really woudln't trust ti as far as I could throw it.

Here I am trying to drum up sales and whatnot.
