I have this and use it for work, the hell should I buy instead? It’s working fine but i guess it’s a ticking time bomb?

Lacie and OWC have good records. I work around media managers in film and I'll still see them on set.

That's a good sign imo

I just typed in Lacie SSD into Amazon and wouldn't you know it the second-top result is a sponsored listing for the SanDisk Extreme 2TB with a $5 coupon, 4.7 stars and 46,000 reviews. Now if those reviews aren't fake I don't know what is.

They're likely not fake; odds are there are loads of people who will buy this product and never have an issue. The problem is that some small percentage will experience catastrophic loss, and who wants to roll those dice?
