Everyone is reviewing their drives, so I'll do something original and review the included accessories !
ACCESSORIES REVIEW
1) Complementary USB C to C cable
Cable is very sturdy, appears to have very good build quality.
Bends as it should, enough but not too much.
Holds the connection tight even when moved around, seems excellent for data transfer.
One of the better cables I've seen on my rudimentary testing.
It's surprisingly good considering my very bad first impressions, as there are two obvious issues when looking at the packaging.
The smaller one is the complete lack of a brand name. No clue who made that cable.
The larger problem, that some keen eyed readers may have noticed on the picture, is that all the "compliance" logos are counterfeit.
They are meant to ressemble actual compliance certifications to trick you, but are ever so slightly different as to be legally distinct.
I get that getting those certifications are expensive and stuff, but faking it is some next level shady.
Still, considering the cable seems to be not just functional but actually good, I don't mind that too much. And at worst, a faulty cable would just mess up the data transfer, it won't blow up your drive.
The power supply does not have this luxury.
2) Power Supply
First impressions are significantly better here.
We get actual brand names here, two in fact : the manufacturer and the european importer. That European importer, from a google search, specializes in helping foreign companies get their CE certification, and so here we have an actual CE logo for an actual CE certification.
That RoHS logo is still bullshit but that's a good start.
The good news sadly end here, because this power supply has the opposite problem to the cable : instead of good product/worrying packaging, we get good packaging/worrying product.
It's light.
Really light.
We get a really cheap plastic housing, a cheap led with a hole pierced in it (???) and be careful not to get too close to the little holes on the underside, or you'll get to experience that very disctinc petroleum smell of cheap plastics.
The power supply is assmbled with one simple screw, removing it reveals the internals.
I don't see anything that would look like overcurrent/overvoltage/overtermperature protection, besides fuses.
I don't know what the company advertises either because I couldn't find anything about it online.
Many companies with similar names, but nothing on this one.
I am not trusting my Pioneer drive with this.
3) Haribos
They were a bit dry and probably have been sitting somewhere for a while, but they were tasty as ever and the flavors were delicious, very fruity and the right amount of acidic.
It was very yummy c:
Edit : As a precision, although this may seem pretty negative, frankly i'm not bothered by it. I don't even recall the listing advertising any of those accessories. So I see all this stuff as just free bonus on top of the stuff i actually paid for.
