Where it stands in the field

Two different questions, side by side. Performance compares what the hardware can do; Value compares what that capability costs at today’s price. A product can rank high on one and low on the other — that gap is the point.

Balanced has no letter: it is a weighting preset, not a capability rubric. A grade answers “how well does this handle that job?” — price is never part of it. Relative Value puts the current market price back in.

Trade-offs

Works well if

  • Game & File Storage is your main prioritygraded S for Game & File Storage on the same rubric as the tier list
  • Strong-value threshold: ~$329$329 is where Relative Value reaches 80 with Balanced priorities, in the 2026-09-30 offer frame

Consider other options if

  • Current price sits $171 above the strong-value threshold (~$329)cheapest tracked $500 against a $329 calculated threshold with Balanced priorities
  • Value for money matters more to you than this exact modelCrucial T705 2TB holds Relative Value 100 against its 60 with Balanced priorities, at $350

Every line states the fact it was derived from, for the scenario selected above. Thresholds are calculated points on our value curve — information about where the maths turns, not instructions about what to pay.

Summary

Computed conclusion

Silicon Power UD90 4TB offers a balanced view across an all-round mix of priorities. It ranks #122 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is drive capability 5000. Crucial T705 2TB currently clears the same practical bar with stronger Relative Value.

FAQ

Why does Relative Value change when I choose another scenario?

Each scenario changes the weights applied to capability, price and the other published factors. The hardware facts stay fixed, but the value question changes, so its score and rank can change too.

Why can Amazon appear without a tracked price?

Amazon is shown as a discovery link when we do not have a permitted verified price snapshot. It is excluded from price comparisons, rankings and Relative Value until a compliant tracked price exists.
