Don’t forget to include the hacked controller software that reports the drive size as triple what it actually is.

My manager ordered four “4TB” external SSDs from AliExpress a few weeks back. He paid £60 total for them, delivered.
My Sus alarm started clanging, so I grabbed one off him and ran some tests on it.
After a couple of days of the tests chuntering along, I ended up reasonably convinced that they’re - at most - 40GB. And even at that capacity they’re useless, transferring at around 10MB/s

Yeah, in my last IT job I tried to get my manager to run the big purchases by me first. Eventually he started to see why.
(He was a good manager, just not a huge hardware nerd)

Triple? That’d rookie numbers.
