    Soon, we will have 1TB SSD for $200

    • Jabba the Hutt on 30/07/2012 - 16:07

      Hopefully, though it's also possible for prices to stagnate or even increase, as sometimes happens with RAM. Flash memory production cuts could break the current price trend.

    • MATTDAMON on 30/07/2012 - 19:45

      Hopefully with the OEM HDD contracts up for renewal at the end of the year, will adopt a larger uptake of SSD's into prefab machines, which will cause the price to drop even further.

    • vid_ghost on 30/07/2012 - 16:12

      its the price + free shipping that did it for me!

      Samsung drives are still $275… i only need about 2 years life out of this thing ( comes with 3 Years Manufacture Warranty) and by that time SSD's would have become cheap as chips

    • netsurfer on 30/07/2012 - 17:54

      Based on the technology, and information from Toms hardware, Samsung 830 and Sandisk Extreme should be roughly on par with each other. Samsung 830 may win out in some of the benchmark tests. Though Sandforce chipset does not perform very well with data already compressed.

      I only have the Sandisk Extreme, the Windows 7 bootup time (after BIOS boot) on SATA3 is approximately 5 seconds (cannot complain, actually quite impressive).

  • orange123 on 30/07/2012 - 16:10

    How good are these Sandisk compared to the Crucial M4?

        lol unless you have a 2009 mac? ..

    • netsurfer on 30/07/2012 - 18:02

      If you use SATA3:

      m4 (on intel i7; with intel H77) - Windows 7 bootup - 7 seconds
      Sandisk Extreme (in intel i5; with intel H77) - Windows 7 bootup - 5 seconds

      m4 has a longer track record, and if you use SATA2, go m4. Pure speed on SATA3, Sandisk Extreme has the advantage.

  • ubor on 30/07/2012 - 16:27

    Has anyone tried using Sandisk Extreme's on a SATA2 laptop? I heard that it's SATA2 performance was subpar due to some firmware issue.

    • scud70 on 30/07/2012 - 16:49

      only if it was a particular chipsets, typical of what the macbooks came with in 2009 :)

      Please don't buy if you want to use it in a laptop. The drives are quiet thick. I know some one bought it on the last deal only to realize its too fat to fit in a laptop.

      • Mikinoz on 30/07/2012 - 18:10

        Your right about Ultra thin laptops, like the lenovo x1 or the x300 etc, these notebooks are thinner than general notebooks.

        This hdd will fit in most standard laptops, having said that its best to check before buying the physical size required.

        • shinichiduy on 30/07/2012 - 18:49

      • voter1 on 30/07/2012 - 18:11

        you can always either remove the casing or find some way of sanding it down, obviously your warranty isnt valid anymore though.

    • netsurfer on 30/07/2012 - 17:49

      Performance of Sandisk Extreme on SATA2 is sub-par. Performance of Sandisk Extreme on SATA3 (tested on intel H77) is fantastic. <5 second boot up to Windows 7 (clean Windows 7 install).

      The SATA2 performance issue is more a Sandforce chipset issue (not limited to Sandisk Extreme).

      SATA2 - Crucial (Micron) m4 is the most consistent one. For Sandisk Extreme, please make sure you use SATA3 (actually, for "decent" SSDs, use SATA3).

      • shinichiduy on 30/07/2012 - 18:50

        How to check which type of SATA you are having with your computer?

          good question, generally if it was built within the last year it may have sata3 before that unlikely

        • netsurfer on 30/07/2012 - 20:34

          1. Check motherboard manual.
          2. Use CrystalDiskInfo (and look for Transfer Mode) - but this only tells you the current transfer mode (so if you have the drive connected to SATA2 then it will report SATA2).
          3. Check your BIOS. Normally, it would report them.
          4. Go to device manager and look at the IDE or ATAPI controllers, find out the chipset series and google for more info.
          5. Visit the Web site which has spec. of your motherboard.

    Excuse my ignorance but what are these used for? Expanding HD space on desktop???

    • vid_ghost on 30/07/2012 - 18:56
      +2

      they replace your HDD in your pc or laptop…. but because of the smaller size of an SSD compared to a standard hard drive you may still want to use an extra Hard drive like 1 or 2TB disk for general storage like music, video's, large game install and run the operating system, applications, and normal sized game installs off the SSD to help boost loading times and cold start boot times…

      Hard drives can take about 2 minutes to load into windows where an SSD will take seconds and you can start using your pc right away!

      ( On laptops you would use an external USB 2.5" hard drive. )

    • shinichiduy on 30/07/2012 - 18:57
      +1

      They are to replace the HDD inside your computer, which is te one you store your operating system on (e.g: windows, linux…). As a result, your computer will boost significantly faster and generally perform faster than with traditional HDD. For massive storage such as movies, music… with hundreds of gigabytes, traditional HDD is still superior in terms of price and that you won't notice and probably won't need that much of speed increase. Using HDD with USB 3 is more suitable on this particular occasion.

      According to my humble knowledge, SSD is faster in some ways but not always faster than HDD.

          With MSY, when purchasing items, you don't get much service from them. However, when you need warranty repair or replace DOA items, their service is better than quite a few other computer shops. They are often willing to take your words when you said the RAM is faulty or the motherboard is faulty (esp. when you bought from them within 7 days), unlike some other computer shops where I must prove to them that the item is faulty.

          MSY uses single queue system (you pay and you get the item on the spot), unlike some other stores which use two queues system (queue to order / pay and a second queue to collect the item - whenever they feel like bringing the item out to you). There are worse stores than MSY.

        • [Deactivated] on 30/07/2012 - 21:58

          MSY is great. I do all my own research online, check store stock online, and then travel to my local store and pick up the items.

          Plus I love not being harassed by sales staff who know bugger all.

          MSY works well for me :)
