That's good to see. :) What's a good and reliable brand/model to look out for? I don't trust many of those unknown (to me at least) manufacturers with the cheapest prices.
Samsung has always seemed like the reliable (albeit expensive) option to me. I personally went with a 2TB Sabrent NVMe because it was on sale and it hasn't failed me yet.
Samsung is starting to have major issues. There are lists online telling you which batches are bad. A bunch of my SSDs from them died, and if you're outside the US, they won't warranty them. They tell you to go to the store you bought them from, and the store you bought them from tells you to go to Samsung.
I'm no longer buying Samsung. They can burn in hell.
