Deal from https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/880458 is back for Boxing Day.

Looks like a decent price for 1TB of TLC storage, despite no DRAM.

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

This is part of Boxing Day Sales for 2024

    a word of warning

    these have a bright green led, that i think is an activity light..

    Tossed one of these in an old prebuilt that had a slow HDD. Been pretty good so far in terms of speed.

    Looks like a decent price for 1TB of TLC storage, despite no DRAM.

    Controller: Maxio MAP1202
    Memory: YMTC 128L TLC

    Unless you like randomly losing data, hard avoid

    The entire Verbatim NVMe range is garbage and on par with Silicon Power, FanXiang and Fikwot

      1. Lexar NM790, which people seem to like on OzB and Whirlpool, is using YMTC (232L) TLC NAND.
        Would you say that's garbage too?

      2. According to this: https://www.hardware-corner.net/ssd-database/Verbatim-Vi3000…
        It uses Phison controller and Kioxia NAND, not Maxio/YMTC.
        Where's your source that the Vi3000 uses Maxio/YMTC?

      • netsurfer on 25/12/2024 - 20:03

        The YMTC 128L TLC refers to an earlier gen of YMTC NAND chips (Xtacking 3.0) and those have the infamous old data read issue. YMTC 232L is a newer gen of YMTC NAND (Xtacking 4.0). The current assumption is YMTC would have addressed the old data read / data retention issue in the latest gen.

        SSD-Tester: Verbatim Vi3000 1TB M.2 SSD Maxio MAP1202 reported. So, there is component lottery. Given Vi7000 also uses Maxon controller, it is unsafe to assume Vi3000 you get will be Phison E13 with Kioxia NAND.

          Thanks, now I'm worried. Hope I get the good ones (Phison/Kioxia).

          • netsurfer on 25/12/2024 - 21:40

            @jkim: Let us know which controller and NAND. Hopefully, Phison + Kioxia combo. I have too many SSDs already so need to stop buying more.

    Thank you for this.

    Verbatim 1tb or Lexar NM620 1tb?

    https://www.jw.com.au/product/lexar-nm620-1tb-m-2-2280-pcie-…

    • jkim on 26/12/2024 - 00:05

      If you can pick up locally, I'd probably go the nm620 as it's guaranteed not to use YMTC flash (2 variants of Micron TLC flash in use). But being outside Sydney, there's $10 shipping which kills the deal for me.
