UPDATED: In stock May 14th - free delivery with Prime.
Usually this is a VERY conservative estimate with shipments going out much sooner in my experience.

Not the cheapest ever but not bad!

Cheapest local is $356 + delivery
Performance very similar to Samsung 970 EVO PLUS according to reviews but not quite matching

    ~$30 more than the other day, but still seems like a great deal.

  • FREE Expedited International Delivery with Amazon Prime
    (averages 9-13 business days) : get it by Monday, May 25 - Wednesday, May 27

    WOW more then a month wait all the way from the US.
    Amazon US must be hammered with so many the US retail stores being closed.
    By that time the Aussie dollar should be much stronger and prices will be even lower.

    • Yeah… maybe. It’s so volatile who knows what will happen.

    • Ordered in the previous deal and email says delivery estimate of Monday, May 18 - Thursday, May 21.

      They haven't even received their stock yet. (arrives in May) Then there are delays in processing orders and then shipping delays due to less flights. Apparently Amazon are the busiest they have been are cant keep up so are encouraging people to not buy as much non essential things

      • I ordered from Amazon US via AU, recently, it arrived within a week.
        Estimated delivery date is end of this month.

        So i think they are just being very conservative with estimates.. it's arriving via UPS so it's significantly quicker than Auspost etc

      Not as good?

      • I've never heard of Silicon Power. Are their quality good?

        • I'm using one from an earlier deal, I'm really impressed by the transfer speeds.

          They are reputable, regardless that part is a reference Phison E12 SSD which is well known as a good value drive for those looking for a step up from the QLC NVME SSDs like the Crucial P1 or other DRAM-less SSDs. This Pioneer APS-SE20G is another reference Phison E12 at $219.99 currently, for example.

          • @ethan961: Only downside to Pioneer is 3yr warranty vs 5yr

          • @ethan961: Thanks might give it a go. Being a developer and living off 250GB is hell.

      • Looks good: https://www.anandtech.com/show/13955/the-silicon-power-p34a8…

        I ordered this SSD as well although a few days earlier at $249. Hopefully I can get a refund for the slight price drop.

        Anyway this one is shipped from Australia, so you'll likely get this one much quicker than the WD.

        If this is the A80 SP, than it's only 500TBW.

        https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/silicon-power-p34a80-pc…

        HOWEVER. All other NVME SSD with the same controller/chip are higher, many have speculated it's just conservative reporting figures for SP.

    Showing up at $362 for me

    • Price has changed.. it was $264.61 .. not anymore

    For reference Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB was $260-$270 a few months back, after factoring 20% sales on eBay and $31 cashback.

    excuse me what

  • Bit of a tangent, but how do people manage things like games on HDs these days? I have 2 500gb SSDs in my laptop and I'm constantly out of space, given every Steam download seems to be, on average, 30 or 40gb.

    • People probably judge or frown upon me but I have an external HDD for the 70% of games I don't play daily and then 500GB SSD for the 2-3 daily games. And yes that's because I'm on a laptop that's why it's external

      Personally using the Seagate backup plus 4TB that's been posted here $~99 many times sure load times aren't the best but really it's works just fine after the slightly longer boot up can't see the point spending hundreds on SSD for all my games (not gonna lie if I could I would but have other needs for that money)

      • I've thought about doing similar - does Steam constantly check if the games are present in the library, or does it happily ignore the games if the HD isn't connected (unless you try to start one)?

        I suppose going down that path I'd probably have to use a powered HD like the Backup Plus instead of a more portable one.

        • I haven't had any real issues with it. Sometimes steam has lost the directories but can still launch the games fine from shortcuts or in their files. Most the time I can just point it to where my libraries are again and be fine.

          I think when I bought mine the powered ones were ~10% faster from what I read. You could probably get by on a non powered one but decided when gaming I will be at my setup anyway so powering it wasn't a problem.

          Either way for $90 for 4TB it's a bargain if you need that much space and no impact on gameplay.

  • Does WD do global warranty? How would the RMA process work if this died on me, since this ships from the US?

  • ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB has the same or better performance (according to test), is in stock, and costs $288 including shipping (newegg.com). So, $260 for WD available in May is not that great value. If it was 220 like a week ago - it is another story.

    • The WD SN750 is second only to the Samsung 970 Pro in sustained writes (once SSDs overflow their SLC cache layer) - not important to most consumers, but there's a reason why it's priced this way.
