No it isn't.

The overblown marketing hype about their power saving feature isn't even on the drive the OP posted about so it has no relevance to the product installed in his Mac.

We're discussing the MX100, which from my experience (and that of most reviews online) is a rock solid drive. You said it sucks and criticized its warranty, which is the same as the alternative you presented.

Bottom line; the MX100 is a fine drive, excellent value for money and the OP has nothing to worry about.
