Nowadays, whether it is graphics cards, memory, or SSD, the prices have dropped dramatically. Therefore, many people may want to take advantage of this time to grab a bargain, but if it is too cheap, there may be something wrong with it. A while ago, a Chinese netizen bought a 256GB SSD. The price was only 80 yuan (about NT$350). After receiving it, the capacity was indeed so large, but after taking it apart, he found that the 256GB was actually composed of 4 SD cards. I really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Chinese netizens only spent about NT$350 to buy a 256GB SSD. After taking it apart, it turned out that it consists of 4 SD cards.
According to Chinese media MyDrivers Fast TechnologyAccording to reports, a Chinese netizen purchased a 256GB SSD solid state drive (brand name: BERLARIBERBARIS) for more than 80 yuan on a certain platform. The price was so cheap that he could not believe it. Therefore, adhering to the spirit of blind box disassembly, he disassembled the SSD casing to see what it looked like inside. It was better not to disassemble it, but once it was dismantled, it made people laugh:

From the appearance, it looks like normal, nothing unusual can be seen:

After disassembling, the motherboard is only half, and the right side is completely empty. Moreover, the right side of the square box is quite strange. There are three compartments on the right side for unknown purposes. If there is no upper cover, it looks like some kind of storage box. It is completely unexpected that it is an SSD solid state drive shell:

What’s more interesting is that there are four iron pieces on top of the main board, which are used to place SD memory cards. That is, the 256GB is composed of four 64GB SD memory cards. Some netizens mentioned that similar products actually appeared in the past, but they only used one SD card. Now they can use four at a time. It’s really cool! However, this boss is also honest and did not lie. He really has 256GB, so he should give it a thumbs up.
But having said that, the current real 256GB SSD is actually not very expensive, about 600~800 yuan. As far as this Chinese netizen bought it for 80 yuan, it only saved 100~300 Taiwan dollars. In the end, buying an SSD composed of SD cards is not worth it! If the difference is more than 500 yuan, it will be okay.
Some netizens also joked, “It’s true that this person calls it SSD, it’s really SSD (Some SD).”
In addition, you can now buy this WCH SATA to Quad MicroSD product:
I also searched online, but I didn’t expect that the same product is also available in Taiwan, but the price is slightly more expensive, starting at NT$600, which makes me even less reason to buy it. And more specifically, the seller also provides the option of installing the Windows operating system and installation tools:
The read and write speeds are also quite good, with a maximum read speed of 550M/s and a write speed of 500M/S:
Kuai Technology also wrote in the article that it seems that some people have also said that they have seen the disassembly diagram of this product, which contains normal flash memory particles instead of four SD cards, but there is no picture attached, so I don’t know whether it is true or not. But the price is obviously not worth the risk, unless you just want to buy it for fun, not to get a bargain.
