Should I be concerned about language differences on different packages of the same SSD model?

Hello.

There is a desire to buy a 512 GB Lexar NS100 SSD [LNS100-512RB]

On the websites of various stores, the packaging looks like this:

At the seller on Avito, the packaging is different in that it has Chinese characters on it:

Is this critical? What is the reason for the difference?

When buying, I will check with the CrystalDiskInfo utility via USB (on my laptop).
What to pay attention to?

Lexar is a Chinese company, different packaging is most likely produced for different markets,
on the other hand, there are all sorts of fakes, your box doesn’t have (tm) after the company name and instead of it you can see an asterisk, am I right?
be sure to test the recording on the full disk space (and not zeros, but some real file, for example, record the same video repeatedly), and not just burn a couple of gigabytes.
upd. carefully, I strongly do not recommend buying second-hand ssd disks,
remember that recently there was a boom hysteria on the chia cryptocurrency scam, mining on hard drives, where a lot of RAM was required for the initial filling of the disks or an ssd disk that was killed in a matter of months (the recording limit was spent )
of course, you can look at smart (or better with a utility from the manufacturer), but I won’t be surprised that there are ways to reset this information to deceive buyers

One and the other, both are made in China.
So why bother?

One question....does it work? is there a guarantee? If yes, what is the problem? what difference does it make who did it....
