Sandisk SDSA5JK 064G Module Laptop Netobook
Amazon's catalog no longer lists this product (checked 2026-11-02). The name comes from the link HN users posted.
It'd be nice to get some endurance testing on the sandisk internal solid state drives (eg. http://www.amazon.com/Sandisk-SDSA5JK-064G-Module-Laptop-Net...)
I've had one fail three days ago on a laptop that was barely a year old. I'm not even sure what actually failed - debugging a broken ssd is a pain, and when I mount it it just freezes for ages, making the matter worse.
Sandisk being the only real seller of those things there isn't exactly a lot of competition but I'd like to actually see how they hold up vs. regular SSDs. There is a bit of a false expectation when you buy a laptop with a ssd, expecting the endurance of a regular ssd and getting something potentially awfully bad.
