Update: Sold out for delivery. Now C&C or in-store at Bendigo only.

Found the deal from Centre com today. Not really a bargain unless you do click and collect in store, or spend over $79 or higher for $5 delivery.

USB-C 3.2 Gen2 SSD (Formerly known as USB 3.1 before 2019)
Read:1000MB/s
Write: 950MB/s

Surcharges: 1.2% Card & PayPal, 2% AmEx.

Edit: I have added a little description above, hopefully not to be confused with the other USB specs.

    True actually, at this capacity it's a bit weird having a full sized drive

        I recently purchased a Samsung Fit 256GB USB 3.1 drive, it's quite small, compact and convenient and I was super impressed with the transfer speeds. If I was transferring large amounts of data I would get a drive similar to the one advertised here, but for 256GB this drive's size is overkill nowadays.

    USB 3.2 Gen2 flash drives are really expensive, but the USB 3.2 Gen1 flash drives are quite affordable these days. The Toshiba XC10 is a USB 3.2 Gen2 SSD drive.

    There are 3 different types of USB 3.2.
    USB 3.2 Gen1 is the old USB 3.0 and renamed as USB 3.2 Gen1 (5Gbps) after the launch of USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps)
    USB 3.2 Gen2 is the old USB 3.1 (10Gbps)

    Not to be confused with USB 4 (uses USB-C port connector) and so on… Also Thunderbolt 3 and 4 (both uses USB-C port connector) would another story.

      So Instead of naming them 3.0 and 3.1, they renamed it has 3.2 gen1 and 3.2 gen2. Makes completely sense - not.

    I thought you need an Xbox branded one? Or do you mean for xone games?

    • 

      spackbace on 18/02/2023 - 10:23

      Yeah just anything that doesn't need the full speed of the genuine expansion card. Goldeneye etc etc

      • 

        Dan83 on 18/02/2023 - 10:38

        Oh ok. Is there a way to know which would work? Or is it just xone games and no native xsx? Maybe goldeneye is a native xone release?

  Get the Sandisk 1tb e30 ssd for $99 at officeworks or Amazon.

    Over five times the cost and half the speed. Brilliant… NOT.

      The Value on 17/02/2023 - 20:55

      You should always account for shipping. So it's just 3 times.

      Speed? What are you? A speed demon?

  This looks like a great deal, however is only showing as available to buy 'in-store' for me (and that store is in Bendigo)

    It seems it got sold out really quickly. I posted it at the time when they got stock over at the majority of the Victorian stores and available to purchase online.
