    Both the title of this post and Linus’ title seem like mild clickbait. The “real world” performance benchmarks of the modified SSDs were actually slightly higher than that of the early review copies, and I think it’s reasonable to believe that the changes were made for supply chain reasons rather than to save a few bucks (at least in the Adata case; the PNY case he mentions briefly at the end seems much worse).
