Or if you live close to a microcenter you can get a 1TB ssd (Microcenter / Inland brand) for $89.99.

The only good review I can find for a 1TB version of this was someone on Woot buying it on 9/11/18. Most other reviews I find are for smaller versions and most are not complementary stating early failures and inability to have warranties honored.
Unsure why they’ve not linked to the Amazon post that has reviews of the Centon brand. It’s the came C-380 series:

From what I’ve been able to find, many of their SSD’s do not last more than 6months to 1.5years. Some have reported a negative experience when trying to get them to honor their warranty as well.
Funny enough, many of the reviews I can find are about how horrible it is to work for them…

tl;dr: Crap, do not buy!
Hi there. We can’t link to those Amazon reviews because they’re not the same item (size). We link by Amazon ASINs (SKU). Each variation has a different ASIN. We have to link to an exact match.
We understand that Wooters are savvy shoppers and can find reviews on their own.
https://www.amazon.com/Centon-Electronics-Direct-2-5-Inch-480GB25S3VVS1/dp/B00U18UYSY/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Centon+ssd&qid=1551812956&s=pc&sr=1-1#customerReviews avoid these like the plague.
The link to the warranty indicates SSDs only have a 3 year warranty, NOT 5 as listed.
Strange because the Centon product page says 5yrs. We’re going with 5 years.
Centon is confused.
Of course they’re confused.
They can’t even spell their name correctly.
It’s really Nocent.
Is this internal or external?
Internal - place it directly inside the trash and avoid the frustration of data loss and a reinstall. As a side benefit, by placing directly in the trash there are no installation issues or cabling conundrums.
