GOODRAM

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

Is this RAM actually produced in Europe?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 hours ago

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.

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

is it Good RAM, or Goo DRAM?

Or maybe go o' a dram?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 15 hours ago

I require my DRAM to be gelatinous.

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
