How did you break them? Doubt you’ll be able to claim warranty since it’s not a manufacturing fault
my b550 tomohawk did not recognized it so put it in encloser and it worked in encloser so it was very hot at that time because data transfer and when i tried taking out i ended up breaking the small pins. it still working though. I spent almost 2 hours now copying data in and out, don't see any problem, but am not talking out of encloser now.
If you do remove the drive again, take the clearest photo you can take of the damage and link it here or pm me or more ideally link it on an electronics specific forum like eevblog forum. It may be a non-issue but you might as well try to get some free advice from electronics engineering professionals on the net rather than just try your luck fiddling around with it (and depending on the state of damage, potentially cause more damage). Sounds like the b550 tomohawk issue is an unrelated compatibility issue, you may need to check if the specific m.2 slot you were trying to use on that motherboard has support for nvme/sata/neither and run through bios settings to see if there's any enable setting.
They all just keep getting cheaper…
Also 1TB for $140.25 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/251397111559
2TB 980 Pro for $432.65 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/254862498123
I got a 1tb last night for $148. I'm pretty happy that it's only gone down $8 and not $10+.
@CompulsiveOzB didn’t realise this. Does this only work on full priced (Non sale ) items? I had a read but couldn’t really get a hang of it.
Are you sure you can redeem Far cry? Not sure which participating store shallothead would fall under if at all.
Nothing apparent about it. They are KS Computer. The promo will work guaranteed as you get a KS invoice.
Can have multiple names under 1 ABN; look at ghost kitchens now on ubereats.
fkkkkkkk paid $349 like two weeks ago from this seller haha
Paid $285 last week LMAO
Paid $399 a month ago haha, rip me
just keep buying.. the overall cost will decrease…
keep buying only work on crypto. what do you do with so many 2TB? :D
Before anyone asks. No you can't use it for the PS5 as it's PCIe 3 and not PCIe 4.
What would you recommend?
WD SN850
Anyone know where I can find a 1tb 870 evo SATA 2.5" for a reasonable price ? Seems sold out or > 200 everywhere.
Unfortunately not, cheapest with discount ATM at a quick glance is around 8 less then a QVO 2tb 2.5 with code.
If you can wait, do that as when I bought it last year in Nov with code it was $148 and included Assassins' Creed Valhalla code.
Quick OZB search $140 appears to be low price point.
I am in this weird situation where I got a 970 nvme to replace my existing one but since it is a boot drive, I need another intermediary device to copy the partition over (and boot from). Now I am stuck till I can get another drive :)
You could go a QVO 1TB if all you need is a temp drive, they are 106 with code but worse performance then the EVO and doesn't include FC6 Promo.
So you've got two nvme ssd's and one slot on your mobo?
Could get a nvme to usb and transfer. Could always buy on amazon and return if you're feeling extra tight.
@Caped Baldy: Only 1 M2 which is my boot drive but plenty of spare SATA ports. I was hoping to get an 870 evo to act as a temporary storage initially and then eventually replace my various 256 GB drives with the new 1tb one.
@notfrodo: Just buy one of those PCIe to NVMe riser cards off ebay. I think the cheapest is $9. Then you can have both plugged in and be able to clone.
Good luck Redeeming Far Cry 6, I bought an SSD from FUTU (same mob) they wont accept the official tax invoice as proof of purchase, been trying for 3 weeks now.
What's the dodgy excuse Samsung promotion team provides?
The document you provided is not a valid Proof of Purchase.
We require the Proof of Purchase to have the following information:
•Date of Purchase (must be within the promotion period outlined in the Terms and Conditions)
•Purchased Product
•Retailer/Reseller/Name of the service provider where the product was purchased from
Even though I'm sending them the EXACT Tax invoice I'm receiving!
Make sure your serial number matches what is on the actual drive and not just the packaging. My serial number had an extra character on the actual disk sticker vs the one on the packaging.
I have bought mine for $285 last week. went to claim the game it came back SN invalid. I have send them (Samsung) email with both serial numbers (Packaging and actual SSD) yes they are diffrent. No reply for three days.
@imranauz: The S/N on my SSD also comes up invalid. :\
Is it possible this run of S/N's are for OEM install or mass installs like Government building etc etc where redemptions aren't available due to the discount, hence pricing ?
@twjr: I've been trying to redeem mine for 3 days, its still coming up Invalid. I've got an email chain going with Samsung Promotions Australia support people, but I don't think they understand what the problem is, and they're not in a hurry to help.
They've just edited the listing images too so that it no longer shows Far Cry 6 advertised… hmm
I have a reply from the seller today that the game can still be claimed with this purchase during the promo period, so I bought one.
Seems like a pretty lame excuse. I've had 2 SSD's from FUTU redeemed for cashback earlier this year.
Paid the same price for 850evo 500Gb 3 years ago… Loving the decline in prices
I wish the same could be said for GPUs market 😔
Does it work with ps5 tho ?
No
@Clear lol
Even if it was in the OP they'd still ask.
Recently I had someone complain that I didn't share any reviews on a product. They were right there in the deal description :|
Thanks OP, was looking for this exact model, almost pulled the pin on the 285 deal yesterday!
Signed up to ebay plus free trial just for this. Cheers!Is it still MLC or TLC?
your a bit behind haha :)
TLC which is good - you dont want QLC (other than specific purposes)
It is 3 bit MLC
Can the 2Tb work on the acer nitro 5?
I read somewhere that only a 1tb works?
Can someone confirm please?What Controller is in this Drive ? thinking of getting a New boot Drive
Few queries on Samsung Offers
1) Just on the Far Cry 6 offer.. If someone bought 1TB a month back and got Steam code.. and again buys another one (1TB) now with Far Cry - they can't claim right? Looking at T&C
Individuals may make more than one Eligible Claim, provided that no more than one (1) claim is made per Participating Product.
2) How long does it take after "Approved" for Steam code (if anyone got that)
3) Wonder if they check simply serial number or check with the seller and match invoice name and everything else as well? Just curious how they verify simply on below
The Gift is not transferable, exchangeable or redeemable for cash and may be claimed only by the Eligible Claimant whose name is stated on the proof of purchase. All claims must be carried out by the actual purchaser of the Participating Product. Claims by any other person will not be accepted.
1 ) I believe this is the case yes, its a different product so you should be able to claim - then gift the code to a friend hypothetically.
2 ) I've had mine in 1.5 weeks previously but also ~3 weeks (had to wait for serials to be loaded onto their database)
3 ) They do check serial numbers and it has to match their database of Australian stock serials.
fml bought it last week with ebay plus for 314. thought ebay support would at least give voucher the difference, but tough luck. how hard is it to return and get a refund?
Nice price, bought one for 30 bucks more last week. Yikes, ozb buyers remorse lol
I have Lg Gram 16 (2021). How I can find out my laptop supports PCIe4 or not? I can't find any information on LG's website
Is the 1tb 970 Evo plus a good os drive?
My 120gb sata SSD is fullyes
Absolutely yes
I bought a 980 Pro a few weeks ago from 'Shopping Express' does anyone know if they trade under a different name that might be one of the Samsung participating stores for this redemption??
K.S computers
Awesome thankyou!
Wondering if I should buy this and return the one that still hasn't arrived by BudgetPC
Can confirm the invoice is from KS computers
To buy now or hold off for BF sales….
Just putting it out there if there's any friendly folks who have no use for the game redemption and wish to gift it.
Jack has return as usual.
arrived today (metro melb). bloody quick in this climate
I got mine delivered yesterday in around 22~23 hours after ordering (I'm also in Melb - SE Subs)… Impressed… I did order a heatsink for it the same day at 8 pm on Amazon and got that the next morning at around 11 am.
I ordered on Tuesday mid morning and received Wednesday afternoon (i am in Sydney) so super impressed with the service. Can also confirm that the 1TB is the newer version with part number MZVL21T0HBLU so has the Elpis Controller. I am using it for day to day stuff no large transfers so the performance will suit me just fine.
I got a 1TB from futu_online last week, part number is MZVLB1T0HBLR. Is that the old version?
BLR is the older version. Large file transfers is basically the difference in the performance of the versions. Relax and enjoy
Was very impressed with the short delivery times, especially when I live in WA.
Can also confirm that the redemption for Far Cry 6 through Samsung worked just fine. Took 6 days from submission to completion.
I got 1 from futu last week and just 1 hour ago I broke the small ssd pins on brand new 970 evo. (profanity) my luck. It still working in nvme enclouser but not sure how long will that last. does anybody know if I can pull warrenty on it? what are my option?
