The way to change parts of SSD to cheap after opening high evaluation review will be revealed



It is the evaluation of the review on the site etc. which greatly influences the subsequent sales of the new product, but after some manufacturers get a high evaluation and confirmed the superior sales, the parts of the hardware are replaced with the performance It has been pointed out that it adopts the technique of changing to inferior cheap.

Bait and Switch - The Sad State of SSDs

Inexpensive for performanceSolid state drive(SSD) known to provideKingstonExtremeTech has revealed that it takes the approach to change the parts of SSD to cheaper after winning a highly rated review.

The SSD in question was Kingston's "V300" series, which gained popularity in the SSD market as it gained the evaluation that it has a very high cost performance from the inexpedication compared with the high performance just after release It is a model. According to ExtremeTech, at the time of its debut, the V300 was a synchronous type capable of high-speed data transferNANDAlthough it adopted the memory (25 nm process), it changed to asynchronous type NAND memory (20 nm process) secretly inferior transfer rate after momentum gained momentum with high evaluation review.


Changing this NAND memory is a change to a finer-grained new part of the process rule, it seems that the change itself to a new part in order to reduce costs itself seems not to be blamed,NordichardwareIn the performance evaluation test by the part, it is clear that the performance of the V300 after the part change is inferior to that of the previous model V200, and the performance deterioration due to the NAND memory change is clear.


Also, after ExtremeTech notices Kingston's ingenious "strategy" and it is tracking for months,PNYIt also turned out that it adopted the same strategy. Although I announced that PNY SSD "Optima" has adopted SandForce controller, I noticed that different controllers are being usedUser asked PNYAs a result, he replied that "we are using multiple controllers to provide the best solution to our customers." However, the benchmark done by this user was lower performance than the SnadForce controller, which is far from the "best solution".

In the modern society where information diffuses instantly due to the spread of the Internet, it is necessary for manufacturers to use product reviews for sales strategies, and if they are used successfully it is possible to realize more successful sales . However, loss of user trust can cause huge loss, and the utilization of word of mouth is double-edged sword. The price cut cost for Kingston's part change may be higher than the reduced cost.
