        Hi Rep, as one of my shoppingexpress parcel got lost early last year, I was told to be granted 70 store credit (1/2 of total lost value) from your mate over the phone and been waiting for the store credit code sending to my email. But it never showed up.

        So during the last year, twice I was about to shop from shoppingexpress after seeing great deal on OzBargain, and then contacted with your college James T about waiting for the store credit and wishing to use them for purchase. but every time after days emails conversition asking me to order first, waiting for marketing department to issue the store credit code,but it never ends up a solution. So I missed two deals.

        And this is the last email I received from your college back in June 2014.

        Hi, Faye

        Thanks for the details will sort it out asap for you.
        ill email you tomorrow.

        cheers.

        Kind Regards,
        James.

        Could you please let someone look into this. For your reference, the two tickets I issued are #17760 and #20474.

        Please help me solve this so I will not miss this deal again and start to shop with shoppingexpress again.

        Thanks!

    • Store RepShoppingExpress @ Shopping Express on 24/09/2014 - 14:26

      at the 500GB - most people are happy to stay with 840 Evo.

      If you want faster and more durable ssd 840 pro (5 years warranty) or 850 pro (10 years warranty).
      So far the 840 Pro is one of the more durable consumer ssd being tested (850 pro is just newly launched so there is no result yet but it is expected to do better than 840 pro).

    • laser on 24/09/2014 - 16:13
      +1

      Get the SATA one as your laptop most probably wont support mSATA, the difference between your 5400 rpm disk and even the crappiest SSD you can buy will be night and day.

      • CyberMurning on 24/09/2014 - 16:15

        ok got it mSATA is just smaller version and goes to PCI slot something like that.
        all future notebooks laptops will be compatible with SATA ssd i think as long they have 2.5" hdd

        how about my motherboard? its old so wont deliver maximum benefit by using ssd, but still better than hdd, is this correct? when i upgrade my laptop, it should have newer MB so the benefit would increase?

        • laser on 24/09/2014 - 16:56

          The SATA version of your motherboard is most likely to be the bottleneck, hence I wouldnt care too much about buying the fastest SSD. Simply put, any SSD is going to make your laptop run faster than when you first got it - the slowest part of a PC in the past has been the hard disk, the other parts of the system typically wait for data to be retrieved from or written to magnetic media.
          If you do upgrade your motherboard, you should get a z97 motherboard which will give you a M.2 or Ultra M.2 port in which case you should get a M.2 SSD, as both SATA and MSata SSDs are sunset technologies. M.2 has direct PCI-E channels to the CPU bypassing the motherboard chips and have been demonstrated to acheive > 1GB/s throughput via Ultra M.2 and >800 MB/s with M.2 i.e same as MacBook Air (which uses a different connector)using currently available M.2 SSD Samsung xp941
          However in all likelihood, you will forget about motherboard upgrades when you put even a vanilla SATA SSD into your notebook.

      • Jabba the Hutt on 24/09/2014 - 19:47

        Chances are Samsung will fix it satisfactorily. But industry experience will teach one to avoid buying into the promise of a flaw or shortcoming in a product being fixed by a future software or firmware update - you wait to see that the promise is fulfilled, then buy.

    • leetec on 24/09/2014 - 18:48

      Based on your link, if you use for system drive, EVO is much quicker drive, but the difference is about second or couple more, doesn't feel much different. But Samsung's SSD has long track record of top quality, that's where you should choose from, as long as Samsung don't swap the factory to new place.

    • jackau on 25/09/2014 - 00:06
      +1

      They are about the same in performance, if you are looking to put any of the drive in that Spec Notebook mentioned above you wont find any differences because your notebooks mainboard is restricted to dated SATA-2 speed that is 300mb/s max, both drives is capable of 600mb/s. so only Sata 3 level machines can sort of feel some differences, mostly only in benchmarks.

      I have tested a eight different brands of SSDs, I fail to notice real life performance difference in between EVO / MX-100 and Ultra 2! (both tested with 5xx level drives)

  • Manh on 24/09/2014 - 18:16

    Keep an eye out for a performance firmware update in the near future for these SSD. Basically, these SSD suffers performance degredation when there is data on the SSD that's over 30 days old.

    The link to the article detailing the current problem with Samsung 840 EVO:
    http://www.extremetech.com/computing/190746-samsung-840-evo-…

    According to a thread at Overclock.net, the problem only occurs in drives with old data on them, where old is defined as more than 30 days.

    • TheFrunj on 25/09/2014 - 10:31

      You should get SATA, that motherboard is a value model and the platform is a bit old so it doesn't come with a mSATA socket. It also doesn't support SATA 3.0 speeds, only SATA 2.0. However the SATA 3.0 devices are backwards compatible and will be much faster than a mechanical drive.

      You can always re-use the SSD when you upgrade your motherboard later :)
