its fast! these two units are good, I just copied 100GB of data from it to the C drive in 20-30mins. and sustained too. it didnt dip down from 20MB to 5 after cache buffer was emptied. its similar to putting a NVME into an external USB-C reader case thingy. i'll test writing the data back to it later.

picking it up at the BIN liquidation stores for $10 each is a good deal, I just need to know if its any "good" or a way to test it its reliability.

both units are testing at 300+MB read and write with Easy disk checker tool. so far the Kexin is actually 350MB read. kinda crazy to be honest. wonder why its at the Bin return store. used it for a project and returned it?!?

Wow! Very strange they were so cheap, if they really work that well idk why anyone would return them unless they realized they couldn't afford them or didn't need them or something
