topic Re: I have question about the usage of "INTEL NAND FLASH". in Solid State Drives (NAND)

I have question about the usage of "INTEL NAND FLASH".

skim71 — Fri, 15 Aug 2014 14:41:01 GMT

Hello.

I am the user who is highly interested in SSD(Solid State Drive), living in Korea.

I request because I have question about the usage of "INTEL NAND FLASH".

I am aware that "INTEL NAND FLASH" must have mark i

like the picture below.(25nm SLC NAND FLASH)

However, not so long ago, I bought the product that used similar "NAND FLASH like the image above and pull-apart it and observed an internal part.

The "NAND FLASH" used in that product is as follows.

This awkward NAND FLASH hasn't got mark i.

what I want to know is whether you produce and sell this NAND FLASH without i mark in INTEL or not.

if it's the NAND FLASH that INTEL guarantees and produce?

I'll be waiting for answers

Thank you~

Hi dio,

I am sorry you are having problems but let me help you.

I would like to know some more information about the SSDs. What is the model of the SSD? Where was the SSD purchased?

If you can provide another picture of both SSD;s I would appreciate it.

Thank you Kevin for your support and information for SSD is as follows:

It is not INTEL SSD but I deseparately need your help Kevin.

I purchased in Korea and Controller is "sm2246".

The used "nand flsh" is identical to the picture you show earlier.

The Model number saling in korea is "RevuAhn 850X1 Ultra"

Product link : http://prod.danawa.com/info/?pcode=2726740&cate1=861&cate2=32617&cate3=32623&cate4=0 http://prod.danawa.com/info/?pcode=2726740&cate1=861&cate2=32617&cate3=32623&cate4=0

I am predicting, this product was manufactured by richmax(supersspeed), china and is selling in korea.

Same "nand flash" was used as the product in the "LINK"

whole internal aspect of the product.

Taken from different angle.

Detailed picture of "nand Flash"

I disagree with the product like above are use genuine "INTEL NAND FLASH INSIDE" as an advertisements

Are these awkward "nand flash" the same as original "genuine nand flash" manufatured by intel?

I'll be waiting for answers.

Thank you.

I understand your point and I thank you for the information provided.

Note that we as Intel® provide the hardware to manufactures and they design their products. So at this point the information you are requesting can be provided by the SSD manufacture only.

hi kevin.

can't you at the answer about the genuine or non-genuine?

Has Intel ever sold nand flash without "i" marks to authorized dealers in China?

I'm sorry to bother you.

All Intel® components are trademark but honestly we have received reports of counterfeit products from Asia.

Thank you Kevin.

Above picture is a cerificate of authenticity from "Intel China authorized dealer", provided by the Korean online shops selling the products.

Basically what it says is that the "Intel China authorized dealer" is manufacturing the nand flash not bearing "i" marks.

I wish you can tell me this certificate is actually authentic and what they are claiming is true at all.

i don't want that value of Intel®brand falls due to this case.

i hope Intel® would reveal the presence of fake ones like this and announce the consumers the deep warning..

Have a Nice Day Kevin...

It is my last question.

Is the all information in the certificate is true? Is false?

It is hard for me to tell you at this point if the information on the certificate is correct and valid therefore I recommend you contacting Intel Corporate for them to help you with this.
