      Used to when I was in hardware service and sales, but that was back in 2008-9. We mostly dealt with their flash media at the time such as SD cards. The running joke was, customer asks why are the ADATA cards so cheap, someone answers - there’s 50/50 chance it’ll lose your data. That arose from really high return rates. They’d just die on people randomly. It wasn’t a single batch issue either. They’re probably different today. RAM is hard to screw up too. Just don’t scrape the bottom of the barrel for chips. Yes I know OCZ managed to screw RAM spectacularly, but in this case it sounds like Framework will choose the chips. They’ve mentioned they’ll be using SK Hynix.
