Good deal if you have the $30 coupon from Amazon AU from the 10TB WD drives.
I actually just bought it because the chance that I'd otherwise use the $30 coupon is minimal…

Not exactly a great alternative for $10 cheaper.
Which review are you looking at? The ADATA only seemed to excel in non-fragmented random read or sequential writes, and the performance falls off a cliff when the drive is full. I think the SP is quite a good alternative.
I agree with your assessment on those factors, but I would consider the standard use cases to be low queue-depth reads, then mixed workloads.
The 8200 Pro's performance at everything other than 98% full seems to be great, making it the superior buy for home users.
