Available again, just grabbed one for myself. Great price!
Third-party seller, unsure how many are in stock.
CamelCamelCamel.
Id love a 1TB. Running windows 10 in the SteamDeck off it. Installing MSFS2020 sits at 100% write speed but flawless so far
Not sure if trolling or serious.
If you can't understand sarcasm and scam products you should hand in your OZB licence.
@Mechz: With all the crap going on in the world currently, and all the dumb stuff people are doing…it's pretty hard to tell sometimes.
How's MSFS run on the deck?
How does anybody know if these are genuine, or Samsung Australia stock (vs grey import)
They were this price a few days ago shipped and sold by Amazon AU but didn't pull the trigger as I need quite a few and but not for a while… So waiting.
If it's being sold by Amazon AU, you could go price match/beat.
$49.95 @PCBYTE. Free C&C at NSW
100%, but I couldn't be f'ed driving there. I'm banking on Amazon matching this price.
Plus I need to bring my Amazon gift card balance down ;-)
They're basically matching the price now if you include the 10$ shipping. Not sure if they'll match a pre-shipping price.
Potentially can get Officeworks or The Good Guys or JB Hi-Fi to price match https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/765432 - $49.95
I have always had problems getting any of those companies to price match any kind of significant discount.
Officework will price beat + cost of shipping.
I bought one of these last night but canceled when I saw it was a third party seller. For most things I don't care but cards like these I'd rather not risk it.
While they do have good ratings for a 3rd party, I just wouldn't trust them (sorry Petter) for something like an SD card. A bit too easy to fake and can be a bit of a hassle testing and working out of it's legit.
Just remember that according to car dealers there is a chip shortage causing the massive car price hikes, so this sd card at this price cannot possibly exist !
It doesn't stop there, the chip shortage also extends to my local cafes and pubs.
It's possible that they aren't lying. Nand flash manufacturing is very different to micro controller chips manufacturing.
Nand flash manufacturing is very different to micro controller chips manufacturing
Not really. The definition of a microcontroller is "microprocessor with inbuilt nonvolatile memory" and in the vast majority of cases, that nonvolatile memory is NAND flash.
Only about half a dozen of the chip fabricators in the world know how to make NAND flash with long data storage life and a good number of erase/program cycles, and they're pretty much the same companies that make microcontrollers. There is only one that I can think of that doesn't make microcontrollers, and that is Micron.
Interestingly, how to make flash memory chips is a VERY tightly held trade secret. Which isn't so surprising, given how much money those companies make from flash memory.
3rd party and cheap memory card = bad news for me, pass.
to be fair, there are fakes of these micro sd cards (where they inflate the storage space)
Just price matched with JB Hifi for $49.95
Price beaten more like it?
Would this be suitable for a dash cam?
1tb $100 waiting room.
Can't be long before 1tb for ~$99.
