    I mean caveat emporium applies here and if you want cheap storage from Amazon sponsored cheap ass flash drive or when microcenter branded drivers by the checkout, those have always been the risks.

    And honestly, as long as you understand that cheap shit is cheap components, I really don’t have a problem with this since this saves these chips from being instant e-waste and puts it to use.

    Still got a handful of these no-name microcenter SD and USB drives going strong along with those that have up the ghost.

      Did you mean caveat emptor (buyer beware), or do you refer to Amazon as caveat emporium (the beware market)?
