nice pics

is that a plastic case?

That is one tiny board haha. 

[chconline 1,337]

Yep a plastic case. Really compact board, DRAM-less though.

They shipped out a replacement but there's a customs bill on it Will need to get it sorted.

Great shots but too bad it's dead. I wonder how it will performance in the PCMark 8 test?

[chconline 1,337]

Thanks Well, traditionally DRAM-less SSDs don't perform well, but this is a budget SSD.

It's already a whole Week.

[chconline 1,337]

Yeah, it got sent back before they could clear it. We'll get another one.

when will this review be in lol

[chconline 1,337]

Next week. I got the replacement.

Did they send you 2 and 1 went back?

[chconline 1,337]

They originally sent one, which was declined when it got to me. I emailed them and before they could sort it out, it was already on the way back to Idaho, so they just sent another one haha.

Can't say I like the Performance lol. Wonder why Crucial made the Price so close to the MX500.
