Corsair and KingWin seem quite reasonable. I am planning to get one of these for use in camera with CF-X adapter.

DRAMless isn't the problem it used to be. A lot of progress has been made. And then there's the form-factor. Kinda spoiled for choice with such a compact/small size required.

I had one in my laptop, if I was trying to copy something from USB it would just become as slow as an HDD....

Maybe, but good luck getting a HDD into a SteamDeck, ROG Ally or anything similar. To be fair though, in the last two years DRAMless performance has become quite good.
