GOODRAM

If you try to stick this SSD in your RAM slot, I guarantee it would not be good. ๐Ÿคฃ

why polish navy flag and not a normal one?

Integral uses Taiwanese controllers on some of their drives, American on others. Check specific models' spec sheets if that's something you care about.

edit: same with Goodram, saw a model with a silicon motion controller

Is this RAM actually produced in Europe?

GOODRAM Industrial is a brand of industrial memory manufactured by the Polish manufacturer of computer memories and flash memories, Wilk Elektronik SA, whose factory is located in Poland.

Kinda depends on what you mean by produced. From what I can see, the modules are assembled in Europe, which makes them more European than other RAM, I guess.

Oh yea lol, but I do know they make RAM though :D

[โ€“] JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I would highly doubt it. They are all made in India and China. It wouldn't be price competitive otherwise.

It's actually possible to pay living wages and charge reasonable prices if you empower your people to work to their limits instead of trying to beat them into doing it.

The company I work for is starting to discover this, and I'm trying really hard to prove it to them as thoroughly as possible

[โ€“] zymagoras777@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

None of these are made in Europe

Do they make chips themselves?

[โ€“] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago

Hope they're available in my country. If so, I'll gladly upgrade my pc with them

Goodram ssd's like to die, I've seen multiple cases of this myself. Especially the CX400
