Note the super-quick M.2 PCIe SSDs are on backorder and will be dispatched in 1 week. These both come with a store credit of $20 which will be emailed to you within 14 days, and will be valid until 11:59pm on Dec 24th for use on anything storewide. Apply coupon ARSECREDIT at checkout and select preferred delivery method, which will be deducted from the final price. All stock is shipped from Australia, and should be delivered within 1-2 business days. Deal expires midnight tomorrow. All the best :)

      In which ways? Boot up time? Starting apps? The 950 Pro M.2 SSD is like twice the price of the equivalent capacity SATA 850 EVO.

      • GreatWhiteHunter on 19/10/2015 - 18:22

        It is just noticeably faster at loading everything vs a traditional SSD.

        A traditional SSD is fast, but this thing is just WOW

    I just received email http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au/19102015/Samsung_SSD_Sale?… stating their EVO500 today and their price is 250GB $129, and 500GB $235. So ARSECREDIT removes $2, and note it also applies to the 1TB ($447 total)

      AFAIK all retina model MBP's have all internals soldered to the mainboard meaning storage/memory etc cannot be upgraded.

    Prices on the Samsung 850 PRO (with $2 discount) …

    128GB is $133 - http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au/buy/samsung-850-pro-128gb-…
    256GB is $177 - http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au/buy/samsung-850-pro-256gb-…
    512GB is $342 - http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au/buy/samsung-850-pro-512gb-…

    Update: Appears that they've removed the $2 discount from the PRO hard drives :(

      Anyone have any real world experience with the Pro vs Standard EVOs? Obviously a bit dearer, but is it worth it?

      • hellrazorone on 19/10/2015 - 13:26

        My work 500GB 840 EVO seemed to slow down considerably after using it for a little while (perhaps 6 months)
        Samsung created a "Performance Restoration" application which I used, but didn't seem to make much difference.
        Currently using an older 256GB Crucial M4 SSD on my home machine which uses MLC instead of TLC, and I haven't had the same issues (although it may be completely unrelated and more to do with firmware or controller), but haven't read about this issue with the PRO drives (which also uses MLC).

        • The Araldited Wallet on 19/10/2015 - 14:13

          Thanks mate… much appreciated.

        • quarrymaster on 19/10/2015 - 19:49

          How full is your SSD? Just wondering if it's TRIM/Garbage Collection related.

        • jkim on 19/10/2015 - 20:44
          +2

          I've heard that the 840 EVO has a bug which causes slowdowns. Apparently 830 and 850 aren't affected by said bug.

        • jaypick on 19/10/2015 - 23:47
          +3

          @jkim:

          Firmware update resolves this issue.

      • jaypick on 19/10/2015 - 23:49
        +1

        Go with this EVO. I have 840 PRO and 850 PRO. They are theoretically faster and are more reliable in regards to warranty but in time you'll be looking at buying 2TB+ SSD's in a few years for similar price so don't waste the extra money just for reliability. 850 EVO will be fine, just keep backups like normal.

  • asianbargain on 19/10/2015 - 12:37

    Is it ssd work similar to external hard drive ? Is that a usb connector for ssd? I always one buy one but not sure how it work. Can anyone explain ? Please

      what's with the neg vote on this legit question???

      AFAIK There's a connector that you can hook up into one of these ssd and you can use it as an external hard drive but the main purpose of ssd's are to replace the old school hard drives which runs on spindles.

      Good Question, these are internal drives, people wanting to upgrade computer or build their own. You can buy a 2.5" external hdd enclosure to use as a portable drive.(best get usb 3.0 ver)

    A couple of dollars cheaper than everywhere else for the new M2 PCI-E range and free delivery, plus the $20 store credit. Deserves a thumbs up from me.

        Unfortunately I doubt I'd ever use the voucher, not sure on the shipping cost couldn't imagine it being much.

        Might have to wait for the price to fall

      All the standard 2.5" SATA drives should fit physically.

  • bbourizk on 19/10/2015 - 16:29

    Is the PCIe 950 pro an upgrade for the sm951. been thinking about grabbing one for a while and using it for OS.
    I recently purchased a 500gb evo from a previous deal and would use that one to store photos (this is a photo editing machine) that i'm working on at the time before moving them to a standard drive once finished.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    • jkim on 19/10/2015 - 16:33

      It's supposed to be but no one knows.
      There's a known heating issue for sm951 that is "supposedly" resolved in the 950 but they haven't said how it was resolved so it might just be marketing fluff and not real.

      • bbourizk on 19/10/2015 - 21:21

        Thanks mate.
        After some further research I don't think my MB will support it. It's an Asus p8p68 pro and it doesn't have pci3.
        Have been putting off an upgrade but the itch is getting to me and might end up going for the Hatwell E 5820k.
        Thanks again

    Hi Guys

    Great deal.

    Question…

    If I buy the 256 SSD and stick it in one of those SSD USB enclousure casing thingies will it work with my Surface Pro 3?

    Will it work as a external hard drive once I do the above.

    Thanks

    • rabbit71 on 19/10/2015 - 17:56

      Yes it will. Just make sure it is a USB 3 enclosure for maximum speed.

    I was tempted to buy but when I looked at their review online at www.productreview.com.au, their service is terrible according to the reviews.

    Are they trustable guys?

    • thefunkygibbon on 20/10/2015 - 00:37

      I'd take most of the stuff on there with a pinch of salt, sometimes they are accurate but the number of review are generally to few to get a good feel. If you take Amazon's customers reviews the product rates very well (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-A…) and that's 5500 reviews so I think you're pretty safe.

      Samsung's SSDs are a solid brand and have been fairly highly rated for the past few years so if you want one I'd say go for it.

  • Economical on 20/10/2015 - 06:28
