Just to follow up on this, today I took delivery of the drive and flash drive from Colorful Technology. First of all, they've immensely impressed me with their correspondence, I think we have all shared an experience with a manufacturer or supplier based in China that has led to confusing conversations and misunderstandings, the social media representitive that got in touch with me was clear and pleasant and made an effort to be pleasant, which lets be honest, these days is a nice touch considering how you can often get funneled through customer service reps. Furthermore, this was shipped from Shenzen, they covered the cost of express shipping to Northern Ireland with DHL and checked back with me (without prompt) to see if it had arrived safely.

These aren't the best SSDs on the market but for size/price I would be quite happy had I actually bought the drive. I wasn't so keen on the blue colour but now that I've seen it in the light of day it actually looks pretty cool!
The flash drive came very nicely presented in their little plastic case, little things like that please me

Thanks again
@moabiouz for sharing this in the first place!
