This one's a QLC drive, but it looks like a good price for a 1tb second steam/content drive - anything you want reasonably fast read speeds from.

Delivery to Melbourne is $10.95, but local pick up is free

  Why do people go these over nvme m2 equivalent? When sometimes they aren’t that much cheaper? Is it purely due to lack of m2 space available?/older boards don’t have m2? I’ve just built my pc and i still don’t understand

    lack of m2 space available?/older boards don’t have m2

    Yes. The latter is why I'm in the market. I have two M.2s installed already and want to replace an older 2.5" I have.

      Thanks all great to know, I should probably figure out my PCIE lane total on my z490 gaming edge wifi then because I’m running two m2s.

        It's not always the lane total but how they're split. The manual will indicate which PCIe or SATA slot is unusable when the M.2 slot is occupied.

    Might get some for NAS. I guess you could use M2 adapters.

    M2 takes a PCI slot, thats why I'm using 2.5" drives vs M.2 as i have other devices in the PCI slots,

  • 

    Trance N Dance on 03/02/2021 - 18:45

    When the second M.2 slot occupies a PCIe lane that's needed elsewhere.
    When the PCIe lanes are occupied by 2 HBA cards and a 10GBE NIC, it's just easier and cheaper to cop a SATA drive instead of an NVME drive.

  Are these good or average?

  • 

    brent3000 on 03/02/2021 - 18:30

    These arnt the best on the market vs a Pro series SSD, but much better than a spinning hdd

    Good bang for buck price, but you can get faster for more, these normally also come with less warranty vs the higher end ones
