Seems to be a new deal only for the 1TB Silver T7 Touch product. Has been on sale this month, but another $30 drop V's the Black 1TB Touch which is @ $329. RRP for the T7 Touch 1TB is $439 so huge introduction for the new products.
Got 5% pricebeat but the confirmation arrived quite late. Seems they need additional approval as price difference is above 25%
Could you inbox me a photo of your receipt so I can encourage pricematching at my store?
for about the same price it is better to get a M.2 970 EVO 1tb + separate 10Gbps enclosure (circa $250+$50); three times the speed of this samsung SSD.
Show us where you can get a 970 EVO 1TB for $250?
I'm sure you are aware, these are a plug and play device so people dont need a hard drive….. I get these 'solutions' always pop up, buy the 'normal' consumer, will see the comment and have no idea……
Might be 3 times, but for a PC thats needed….. for a Storage device, its not. Plus most 'host' devices wont computer an external device that fast THUMBS UP
Thanks Aussie, math checks out
And thanks Icedog, all good points
I could be wrong, the 970 EVO 1TB is only max 3,400MB/s Seq. Read. So would be similar to this T7 drive. No?
Edit: scratch that. I was wrong. Looked at wrong spec sheet.
actually, at second look, 10Gbps is only equivalent to ~1250MB/s. So you would actually cripple the 970 evo to 1/3 of its potential by doing that.
A good deal but man that's still pricey! Bring back the T5 500gb for $99 deal :(
5% price beat @ OW
