    Thank-you Mr Loops! Bought 3!
    Half expecting this to be an error and order to be cancelled, but you have to be in it to win it!

      Just got an email to say Amazon cancelled the order… :(

        Me too now.

        • Loracks on 18/11/2022 - 22:58

          Me three. Didn't think it was so cheap as to be cancelled.

    • Its4me on 19/11/2022 - 03:00

      Any orders not cancelled?

        I ordered 1 each in 2 separate orders and only 1 of my orders was cancelled.

    I did however order 3 of the 1tb m2s for 56ea lol

    Thanks, bought 2. Great price. I use them for data storage where I mirror one of them into the other. 4 TB seems to be the best value.

    • Modesty on 18/11/2022 - 21:21

      How do you mirror ? Manually copying or any software?

      • Musiclover on 18/11/2022 - 21:35
        +4

        I used to do total commander copying - it is not bad.
        But now I use SyncFolder - it is a free Windows app. And it is fantastic - just an ideal tool with plenty of settings, and it's free.

        • punk on 18/11/2022 - 21:44

          Good idea. Bought two to give this ago. Thanks

  • Josh213 on 18/11/2022 - 21:21

    Can you use these for storage and playing PS4 games off a PS5?

    • RedSky on 18/11/2022 - 21:22

      Would recommend an SSD instead for good load performance.

      • Josh213 on 18/11/2022 - 21:23

        Cheers! I think there was one recently that I’ll scourge back for.

    • Azro on 18/11/2022 - 21:40

      Yes. It will perform as a default PS4 disk in terms of loading times.

  • bfimmortal on 18/11/2022 - 21:24

    Got one, thanks OP!

    I wanted the 5tb, but at this price 4tb will do just fine 🤣

  • Charlie Dont Surf on 18/11/2022 - 21:26

    Cracking price. Paid over $100 for a 4TB Toshiba only a handful of months ago.

  • DevonBlaze on 18/11/2022 - 21:27

    Wow that's great price

  • DoctorCalculon on 18/11/2022 - 21:28

    Will these be any good for attaching to a NVR for security cameras (for additional storage)?
    Or, just stick with the lousy 500GB internal WD Purple HDD?

  • capslock janitor on 18/11/2022 - 21:29

    portable?

  • HairyChickens on 18/11/2022 - 21:30

    Got one I'll find a use for this later lol

    Thanks, OP

  • happyangus on 18/11/2022 - 21:33

    WD isn't shuckable is it?

    • Froot Loops on 18/11/2022 - 21:38

      I don't believe these are due to the built-in encryption system.

    • vash12 on 18/11/2022 - 21:38

      Yes cant shuck.

    The problem with this is if the enclosure dies say bye bye to your data, as there is no way to recover it.

    • fatice on 18/11/2022 - 21:41

      I use them as backup of the backups

    • ValouSydney on 18/11/2022 - 21:41
      +1

      True but mine have been used for more than 10years and still going strong. But yeah keep a copy of the important files just in case.

    • Azro on 18/11/2022 - 21:42

      Never use any portable disk for any important data.

    • Musiclover on 18/11/2022 - 21:48

      Use two in mirror. Or use them for crap you can download again quickly.
      One could shuck them and use in Raid 5 configuration but then you need a NAS… A bit pricey

      • garetz on 18/11/2022 - 21:53

        they are not shuckable

        • Musiclover on 18/11/2022 - 22:01

          Ok, I stand corrected. Did not have experience with these particular ones. Then go to options one and two.

  • cook99 on 18/11/2022 - 21:43

    Not sure I need this but ordered one anyway, what is wrong with me

    Bad reviews at Officeworks Website. I am not sure if it is exactly the same.

    Update: It was SE Elements. This seems good obviously looking at Amazon Ratings. You can't go wrong too much with that price. USB C would be nice though.

    • minicat on 18/11/2022 - 22:06

      It should be much better than Seagate. All my Seagate portable harddisks died.

      • GuestShopper on 18/11/2022 - 22:08

        I have been using a Samsung USB 3 - 1TB for almost 10 years. Seagate prices were always low maybe that's why.

      • Ben Kenobi on 19/11/2022 - 11:24

        Exactly the same experience…both 3.5" and portable…won't touch Seagate.

    Did anyone get a email confirmation? It shows on my amazon app order but no confirmation sent to my email even on junk.

    I had really bad experience with another uk order for wera tools. I hope this will not be the same problem :(

    • ueno on 18/11/2022 - 21:52

      same, was gonna ask the same thing

      • Bang1 on 18/11/2022 - 21:57

        Im hoping its just a delay. Usually I get confirmation within minutes of ordering. Worse case scenario at least I can see the order to cancel it unlike last wera order fulfilled by amazon uk.

        • ueno on 18/11/2022 - 22:06

          Check your card transaction. Didn’t even come up on my cc’s pending payment history. We’re all done for lol

          • Bang1 on 18/11/2022 - 22:11

            @ueno: Amazon doesnt charge until its shipped. I paid with gift card credit and it got deducted :(
            It took me some time to get it back last time. But I was offered a $25 credit at least 😄

    • Dvbargain on 18/11/2022 - 21:56

      Lol no emails either

      This is all gonna go bad hahaha

    • Grey 13 on 18/11/2022 - 22:21

      Either it will get canned or it might take sometime for Amazon UK to confirm the order via email. I guess we'll see.

  • phidj003 on 18/11/2022 - 21:51

    Amazing price - thanks OP!

  • DogeConomy on 18/11/2022 - 21:51

    Got a camels tracking notification on my email earlier today (5:50pm) telling me that the WD 12TB My Book hard drive's price had been lowered to $95.19. Unfortunately I missed that deal out (most likely a pricing error) ;(

  • BigTime on 18/11/2022 - 21:58

    Grabbed a couple but no confirmation email yet so I don't like our chances of getting these. Probably a price error. Best we can hope for is a $10 apology voucher I think lol.

    Is this SMR or CMR?

    • rainbowyen on 18/11/2022 - 22:13

      No CMR on 2.5 inch drives unless you find old stock

    None of mine have been cancelled (all mine purchased very early). I'd be more than happy in only a small amount go through. People can always try to whinge to amazon via chat and hope for a credit. Might work.

  • Froot Loops on 18/11/2022 - 22:56

    My order just got confirmed (via email) hopefully this means I have a chance (I don't know how Amazon works here). Not boosting, hoping some others that got in early have a shot (some is better than none)

      Good luck, OP! If they are cancelling orders because of no stock, then most likely you will get yours!

      • Froot Loops on 18/11/2022 - 22:59

        Finger crossed for as many members as possible then. I'm pretty sure we smashed them hard and maybe they did run OOS.

      • Froot Loops on 18/11/2022 - 23:01

        We will see. I haven't done this type of purchase before, but others have been honoured (from other posts) for much larger losses ($1k cameras for <$100). Still worth the chance
