Actually, not sure if I bought cheap. I paid 90€ 2 years ago. But not sure about the brand SanDisk for SSDs.
Any SSD recommendations?
A lot of SSDs have 3-5 year warranties, you might want to look at using it, although they might say your warranty is void if you ran a bitcoin node on it. I'd be curious to see what happens if you try to use the warranty though.

Oh, you are right! I have 3 year warranty and I bought it at May 25 2021.
I will write the support, thanks!

Took me a while (and their support was kind of broken for a while lol; their own form did censor my phone number which they said they need so I had to sent my phone number to them by uploading a picture lmao) but I sent my SSD yesterday to them! They said they will ship me a new SSD.
So thanks a lot for reminding me about the warranty. I totally forgot!

You're welcome. Good to know they will RMA the device even if you were running a BTC node.

I didn't tell them about the BTC node since they didn't ask

SanDisk is a solid brand. I got a Standisk 250gb SSD installed in my Dell latitude two years ago that I've had since 2011, got it brand new. Hasn't failed me yet and still runs super freaking fast, as fast as when I first got it put in. Nothing but positive for me but then again all I do on my laptop is play games in my web browser, casino slots and what not, stream live sports, and browse the web/social media. Don't know how it'd do running a BTC node.
