In the photography world that I work in OWC has a pretty good name and is well respected. I noticed they make SSDs and RAM too. However, I don't see OWC pop up in the custom PC build community very much. I was wondering why/are they actually any good?
 


So probably a good pick for building a hackintosh? Or can I get same/better performance for cheaper elsewhere?
 
Stay away from OWC. Their products come with a warranty but OWC is terrible to deal with. After receiving MULTIPLE defective USB-C hard-drives, I asked for a USB-3 model as I couldn't be without a working backup hard drive any longer. The USB-3 drive cost less but I knew was reliable. I had to pay for this new model and then when they received the defective USB-C hard drive, I'd be issued a refund. Unfortunately they charged me a 15% restocking fee. They were unable to provide a working USB-C version of their hard drive but somehow that was my fault in their eyes and it cost me 15%. SCUM BAGS.
