Xpg aka Adata were caught repeatedly downgrading their SSD'S after sending the fast initial release drives out to press.

I would not want to be the one taking the gamble.

So these are basically the same as those 730/740 from the other article. The prices should be same as well?
Don't really know what the prices on SSDs are currently but the 30 series ones seem reasonably priced.

Yep, this is the reason I have chosen to blacklist them from my purchasing programs.....

bait & switchers are right down there with scalpers on my lists, ~129.67 steps below doggypoo, commy dictators, lawyers, and other assorted waste byproducts

Add Samsung(though they did change p/n and results were mixed), WD(just as bad as Adata/XPG), Crucial, Kingston(OG), PNY, Asus(for their laptops caught swapping controllers). And since you want to blacklist bait & switchers add Seasonic to the list as well for PSUs.

Well fortunately for me, I made several large purchases of both Samsung and WD m.2's prior to the switching became a thing (verified by PN & SN lookups), as well as Seasonic, since I will definitely use them in ongoing & future builds for my clients, relatives etc...

This one and the Adata article are remarkably similar. It seems a common template was used. Considering the timing of them, I suggest changing the wording a bit.

They're press releases, both written by ADATA.
