Is there something I'm missing? Value 120GB PNY

MDIGN · Apr 22, 2014

Alright, so far I've heard no mention of the quality and stability of PNY's SSDs. The only things that I have to go off of are dated reviews and often unreliable Newegg ratings.
It's $59.99 for an 120GB SSD that's rated to have 500MBs Read / 490MBs Write. I'm hoping that I'm missing something and someone can point it out for me. Because right now this is a steal.

Is there a really large gap in performance/quality in the KLR8 and the Samsung EVO that would warrant me passing this up?

I can't find the review for the 120Gb version, but here is the 240GB one, http://www.hardwareheaven.com/reviews/1650/pg8/pny-xlr8-pro-ssd-review-file-copy-tests.html also you can compare the tom's haadware Best SSDs For The Money http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-recommendation-benchmark,3269-6.html
From the reivew, the xlr8 pro can match-up the plexior M5 pro or samsung 840 pro. It is good one, but it is not the popular one that is why it is $60.

I thought so, it's just more of an obscurity thing. I'll be getting both the Samsung 840 and this KLR8 and test them out. One will be in my desktop the other will be in my laptop.
I just found out that I can get the Samsung for only $63 thanks to an associate/partnership discount I get from the company I work for.
