almost at that $400 barrier! good find OP
Double check the Free shipping bit, only applies to the US. But a good indicator that prices are going the direction we'd like.
The $431 includes skipping to Australia :)
But yeah, prices are starring to get orrery decent finally
Skippy, Skippy, Skippy the bush kangaroo
I'm standing here correct…freakin awesome. Went through the checkout process and sure enough the price doesn't change once shipping is applied.
It is the same price as mine bought 2 months ago in the ebay 15% sale. Definite a good price.
Any deals on the 250 GB model? I don't need 1 TB.
Scorptec's still selling the Sandisk Extreme II 240gb for $129:

If you don't want to wait 2 weeks for postage, and you prefer the idea convenient returns (if needed), same item is at MSY for ~ $30 more:
http://www.msy.com.au/pc-components/12408-samsung-840bw-evo-…Yeah I just saw that. Probably less hassle for an extra $30.
I've got a 240GB Sandisk at the moment. I'll wait a few more months before getting a 1TB. They can only get cheaper :)
Well if our dollar drops they can get a lot more expensive
personally the shipping time is a real put-off for me for two reasons:
1) I'm impatient
2) with SSDs at the moment - by the time it arrives, the local prices will have dropped below or equal to the lower price that Amazon US offered in the first place ;)
Prefer the 1TB Crucial M550. I believe it is more reliable on account of having better power-failure behaviour. They were ~$440 shipped to Oz, just recently on Amazon, listed on Ozbargain. I think I will wait for the price of those to drop back down.
Possibly cheapest if you need one today! I got mine during 15% off ebay purchase last time for $425, 2 months ago.
Same
If I buy an SSD like this, how can I mount it as an external drive? I assume there is an enclosure, but not sure about USB 3 or Thunderbolt and not sure at what product that are out there.
I tried searching but it seem Thunderbolt ones a either very expensive or there is a lack of the simple singe drive ones.
get one of the dearer (~$30) 2.5" usb 3 enclosures from MSY.
Google this… ebay 3.0 2.5 external hard drive enclosure. Heaps there.
Not sure I see the benefits of running an SSD thru a non-sata cable though.Definitely would run faster than a standard HDD and in theory would be a bit more reliable if you're carrying it around a lot.
More than my whole desktop built new last year.
Straight into my $399 PS4 :)
Not bad but Ill pass for better pricing
Thank you very much OP! According to the three camels, it is the cheapest price by USD20. I have been waiting for this!
