    Not sold by Amazon, third party seller with the "Just Launched" tag. You're better off buying it direct from Amazon or this deal to save yourself the hassle.

      They are not as good as they used to be but with no way of knowing if you will get a good or a bad one.

      Also saw there is a bunch of issues with these drives and firmware especially when used in NASs

      He's not wrong:

      (TBW)
      

      Capacity	MX500	BX500
      250/240 GB	100	80
      500/480 GB	180	120
      1 TB	360	360
      2 TB	700	720
      4 TB	1,000	N/A

      Also interesting if you look at endurance compared to capacity:

      (TBW per TB)
      

      Capacity	MX500	BX500
      250/240 GB	400	417
      500/480 GB	360	250
      1 TB	360	360
      2 TB	350	360
      4 TB	250	N/A

        I thought it was common knowledge that TB write numbers are irrelevant.
