I was checking some prices for the new (and first) SSD I'm going to buy, and there are two options:
1- PATRIOT P300 (256GB) (Gen3 m.2)
2- LEXAR NS100 (256GB) (SATA 2.5")
the prices are the exact same! [8,490,000IRR = 16.5USD] + it's on a reliable site so I'm pretty sure it's not a scam
So I was wondering if I should get the P300 or not
(please consider that I'm living in Iran and there's absolutely no official warranty for almost anything)
