Went to Officeworks planning to get the SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD V2 for $349. Shelf tag showing $399 for the other color. https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/sandisk-2t…

Checked on Amazon hoping it is cheaper and Officeworks will reduce it further with their price guarantee.

I stumbled upon the PRO version with faster transfer speed and $50 cheaper than the one I was planning to buy.

When I bought the item this afternoon, it was selling for $308.57 in Amazon so Officeworks sold the Sandisk Expansion Pro SSD for $293.14 (5% discount - price beat guarantee).

Checking online now, Amazon reduced it further to $304.78. You may get this 5% cheaper if Officeworks keeps their $499 selling price.

  Are these the ones that suddenly die?

    Yes they are the ones. The Slower ones are the ones that dont suddenly die.

  Not cheap enough to risk it.

  I'm no tech expert so I had to ask my brother who has a computer shop to choose for me and only from Officeworks (I'm using my flybuys points to purchase). I was in a hurry to get one quick to back up 2 mobile phones I need to send for repair as uploading years of photos online takes forever.

  I could have gotten 60,000 Flybuys points (equal to $30) had I used my Flybuys rewards to buy 3 x $100 Officeworks gift card —- then buy the SSD!

  In case anyone needs the info: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/08/sandisk-extreme-ssds…

  Here are the drives Western Digital has said are affected:
  * SanDisk Extreme Portable 4TB (SDSSDE61-4T00)
  * SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable 4TB (SDSSDE81-4T00)
  * SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable 2TB (SDSSDE81-2T00)
  * SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable 1TB (SDSSDE81-1T00)

  Personally I've been using SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD 2TB (Model #: SDSSDE61-2T00
  ) since 2022 and I'm very happy with it. I've upgraded to the Samsung T7 Shield lately as I need more storage space (4TB T7 shield for $449 at JB Hi-Fi).

    Looks like it's the same price again. I'm going to get it today.

      The T7 Shield is a great buy at that price!

  Still no. I do my best not to be brand loyal nor hold grudges, but when it comes to data, big nope on SanDisk SSD and Seagate HDD. Not worth.

    Seagate HDD are great, what are you on about. The Iron Wolf Nas drives are the best around.

  As with other comments, please do your research before trusting your valuable data on these particular drives (the ones in this outer shape). People are disgusted SanDisk know the issues but keep reducing prices to keep making money on them from unwitting buyers I love a bargain but wouldn't touch these.

  Still nowhere near the value of just slotting a drive into a usb caddy sadly.

  Getting closer.

  But still about 1/3 needlessly more expensive.
