    Yep! Perfectly cromulent SSD. The ones people tell you to avoid are the weird "brand you've never heard of with a weird name DRAMless cheapo specials"

    The real issue there isn't actually the lack of dram, but the low quality components used, because it's a super sketchy low end product. Once you get into recognizable brands and mainstream product lines, you pretty much can't go wrong other than getting a bad deal which this isn't at that price.

    Go for it!
