More and more USB sticks and microSD cards are being made with dubious components — data recovery firm uncovers no-name, low-quality NAND inside many devicesLee Duna@lemmy.nz to Technology@lemmy.world – 474 points – 5 months agotomshardware.com88Post a CommentPreviewYou are viewing a single commentView all comments Data recovery firm CBL reports that memory chips in the most recent microSD cards and USB sticks are perhaps the most unreliable. Homer: "the most unreliable so far" USB charging cables and the adapter is getting up there. Followed by hard drives.the hard drive portion feels more expected because there's moving parts in there. with SSDs and USB sticks it's more chanced because we can't see the insides before buying. maybe it's time for a clear/neon- plastic comeback but this time with usb sticks?
