                @nikon: Bank transfer offers no purchase protection so that is not ideal.

      • kungfuman on 09/10/2024 - 13:45

        yep you can get the 4tb version cheaper too than amazon at Umart. Australian warranty too

    This or the Crucial T500?

    • nitens on 09/10/2024 - 10:14

      T500 on most metrics except cost per GB.

      • Micsmit on 09/10/2024 - 10:46

        T500 is an absolute beast.

      • Micsmit on 09/10/2024 - 10:48

        I went from 1tb sn850x to t500 2tb. Love it. 12momths later I want 4tb though.

          Sorry just curious and I don’t quite get this.

          What difference did you even see that you “love it”? They are essentially fast enough that no other component can actually keep up with them. How did this high end to high end swap provide any meaningful change for you?

          • Micsmit on 09/10/2024 - 11:30

            @Larsson: I drop into hell let loose maps 2 seconds earlier 🤣

            Which gives me choice of vehicle or squad type

            And it's almost 10-15seconds earlier then when I had it originally on a sata ssd.

            Plus love it = everything loads fkn quick, and windows seems snappy as.

            • Larsson on 09/10/2024 - 12:20

              @Micsmit: I would be shocked if any of what you said was true and there were any measure able difference between those drives, especially for gaming…

              Data SSD, sure there will be a decent (albeit I’d say irrelevant) difference in “game load times”

              Sounds like you love it because you wanted something new and shiny and that’s totally fine. Just be honest with yourself though lol

                @Larsson: You can believe it or not. Why would I care? I play hell let loose seriously on PC and there is a counter as the map loads.

              @Micsmit: overtime these drives will be slower depending on trim condition. Get a new sn850 to replace the t500 and probably you find the new drive quicker.

              sn850 is better on specs while both Crucial and WD are good drives.

              • Larsson on 09/10/2024 - 13:48

                @ultraviolet: People downvoting me without even looking the specs up.

                • ultraviolet on 12/10/2024 - 21:26

                  @Larsson: People might have misread your comments. Not all people have deep technical knowledge. No one is totally right or wrong. My personal experience is that both are reliable storage brands.

    The 4TB one also has a $20 coupon to it, making it $313.95.

        It looks cheaper if you use per gobble!

    P3 plus is not actually usable.
    Owned this previously, and once the cache is full, it is more than slow to get data written into, and the speed would constantly dropped to 0, yes, 0, for seconds. Just like hundreds of MB/s for 5 seconds and 0 for another 5 seconds or even longer.
    Would never buy this model again.

    • dyziplen on 09/10/2024 - 12:08

      It's a qlc drive, write once read many times kind of thing. Had a P1 for a number of years. Initial copy over is slow as. But good enough day to day because you don't really fill up the cache.

    Noob question, so thanks in advance for your expert tips. I have been waiting for a good portable SSD deal for Plex media. I've never used/dealt with DIY enclosures before so I'm just wondering if the savings are worth it compared to getting a ready-to-use product? (I'm not the most tech-savvy but can perserve/be diligent for decent OZBargain savings lol)

    • chumpychops on 09/10/2024 - 13:56

      I was also a noob with this stuff, the enclosure/ byo hard drive just gives flexibility. It is a little cheaper in most circumstances excepting the occasional deal on a ready-to-go like a Samsung T7. Fitting them is easy - like fitting your own ram into a computer (something I don't do anymore because I use more modern macs)

    • GP-233 on 10/10/2024 - 10:45

      I got the deal few days ago on the 2TB Sandisk SSD for my plex server, work pretty well.

  • Jty05 on 09/10/2024 - 11:32

    Probably a good buy for the PS5 if we don't mind slightly longer wait times I suppose? Been on the market for a sub 200 2tb SSD for my PS5 for a few months now..

      You'd still need to add a heatsink no?

  • Roe Jogan on 09/10/2024 - 11:44

    this or samsung evo 990 $177

  • BigMoth on 10/10/2024 - 00:05

    This or the patriot?
    https://www.umart.com.au/product/patriot-memory-p300-m-2-228…

    Is Patriot "TLC" not QLC ?

  • HPdeskjet on 16/10/2024 - 21:46

    P3 / P3 plus is QLC, slows down to 100MBps past SLC.

    https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/eBxmScxrvVfA9kas6EWxe8.png

    Beyond abysmal performance, will freeze at load. Get a TLC + HMB drive minimum.

    (7200rpm hdd is ~260MBps.)

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/871619

    Get this instead @ $139 with 176L TLC, about 15x faster than P3 plus.
