I'm hoping someone will be selling a Samsung 850 Evo 500GB with the CHEER20 code, but so far it's been all Crucial and Toshiba SSD's.
Is it worth getting one of those (with $50 off), or wait until an Evo sale comes on board? Does anyone know of Evo's for sale with the voucher?
The MX300 seems to do quite well in reviews, but still not as good as the 850 Evo.

Maybe Amazon will have some amazing Cyber Monday sales on 850 Evo.
Ouch!
Obviously confused myself on the offer. Forgot CHEER20 is 20% off (most of the items I was looking at saved about $50 with the code). I wasn't talking about stacking.
Thanks for the link. Not sure how you searched for only CHEER20 compatible items.
I'd bought the PC Byte 850 Evo a couple of months ago for $180, but it had a CRC error, so had to send it back, and they refunded instead of replacing.

The second line of the bloody post!
Y'know what? I'd not seen your post actually. Thanks for the link. I'd seen the code on other pages to specific items (like SSD's). Checking them again I see they have a link to your original post which I didn't see at the time.
Are you normally this rude?
@Storm: sorry, just so frustrating reading through the commmets of my deal and all the people who haven't even read the post and are asking for search links.
Hi Storm,
Thanks for asking the question, as I too am looking for a good discount on a good SSD.
Open to suggestions from the Ozb community.
Anything better than the Toshiba Dynastore 480 GB for similar price ??
I've been doing more research, and although the Samsung 850 EVO is the best (850 EVO Pro is better, but much more expensive), it's a fair bit more than a Crucial MX300, which has similar write speeds, but slower read. I think 850 EVO and MX300 are the best two to choose between at the moment, as they are the only ones with 3D tech.

I can't find any reviews on the Dynastore (HDTSP480TSBTLC), but other TLC NAND Toshiba products haven't been the best value.

Here's a comparison site for best value SSD's:

This CHEERS20 code runs out after 7th of November (end of Monday). I'm seeing if any great deals come out of Amazon for Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

Has been down as low as $175 for 500GB from memory.
Yeah, I got it from PC Byte for $180 a month ago (which failed… crc error). Returned it expecting a replacement and they just refunded me. Rude.
You can't stack $50 vouchers with coupons.
Best SSD with CHEER20 since you're too lazy to use the search link yourself.
