buying SSD ? any advice?
Hello
My SSD, which is Trascend 128GB, bought only two years ago, but it just fails a few days ago. BIOS couldn't detect it. Plugging it to the external case of another computer, it doesn't read it too. Just like any computer doesn't find this drive.
I believe it's failed. 99%, right?
The warranty is 3 years, I think SSD is always better in quality than HDD, why it fails so fast? It was never dropped and handled with care. It's practically always mounted to the PC for the past two years.
Is Transcend a bad brand?
Which brand or model do you recommend?
I'm not very much into technologies. However, tomorrow is my holiday, I will want to shop for it.
Do I also need to check if the SDD is compatible with my motherboard or other hardware?
My motherboard is - ASUS H61M-K A cheap one I believe.
