What do you think? Is that a normal price?

Cheaper doesn't always equals.... Good. Reliable. Or quality...

You could buy it just to test it out

And it reminds me of the recent Kingston DataTraveler HyperX Predator - 512 GB:

512GB are coming sooner than you believe. We have 256 GB already.

It's probably 512mb intentionally mislabeled. The good thing about Aliexpress tho is that you can screw the scammer by rejecting the item when it arrives, they dont get your money, and they have to pay return postage if they want the crummy product back.

Seems WAY too cheap. There are 512 GB drives out there, but they are expensive.

Realistically, there are a handful of 512 GB flash drives. USB ones are nowhere near affordable. A prime example.
