Title:

Switch-a-roo time again! SSD makers using slower pts in newer drives!

Text:

OK, is this the fall out of the chip shortage? Or are they trying to cut corners?

This is becoming too popular! Rev’ing a part and not noting it as a different P/N or other marking in my mind is deceptive marketing! It’s one thing to improve performance not lower it.
