Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

Not always. Their prime day and Black Friday deals are usually pretty solid. I've gotten drives the last 2 prime days, and a black Friday 4 years ago, and they've lasted the couple years I've had them, and last years 2tb is fine in my PS5 so far.

I'd be wary of any sk hynix ones though. I can almost guarantee those are always ripped out of old builds, because that's where all of mine have come from.
