It is the lowest price on CamelCamelCamel even with $15.49 delivery charge from Amazon UK. I have ordered 3 with $16.18 delivery fee.

It is the same drive as Western Digital Black SN750. They are the same drives with different sticker ONLY. Western Digital owns SanDisk.

This is a PCIE Gen3x4 M.2 SSD. It is good for old PCs, laptops and tablets without PCIE 4.0

Get in quick, coz I don't know when the sale will expire.

    What's so special about this SSD?

    • Released in 2018
    • TLC NAND (so not a 970 Pro competitor)
    • PCIe Gen 3
    • Industry-standard TBW and year warranty

    Is it the Extreme Pro brand name? I don't get it.

      It is a competitor to the regular 970/970 plus, not the pro, just Sandisk crap naming. For what it actually is it is fine

      TLC NAND (so not a 970 Pro competitor) ===> Yeah, what about half the price compare to MLC NAND Samsung PRO 970 1TB. By the way, MLC is better for reliability ONLY, not speed my friend.

      Is it the Extreme Pro brand name? I don't get it. ===> Unless, you are a Samsung fanboy.

      • Relax mate, I only asked because your post seemed to make this SSD sound like a killer deal so I was wondering whether there was a secret it was hiding.

        Bought a brand new 970 Pro for less than $200 in 2020 but I agree it's currently overpriced for what you get. MLC is better for reliability and sustained write speeds, once that SLC cache fills up on this drive, write speeds will tank.

        • +1

          Once issue is is that the 970 Pro seems to have been MLCs last hurrah on the consumer side. And since it's not 2018 or even 2020 I would say it's complicated. MLC may still be better for reliability although unless you're Chia farming or something, with a decent TLC device even for a fairly demanding consumers it's unlikely you have worry about warrantied TBW let alone practical TBW. But when it comes to sustained write speeds it's no longer so simple.

          Newer flash and controllers, with the associated speed and channels means that TLC devices are starting to get closer to and sometimes even beat the 970 Pro. I don't think there's any 1TB device that can beat the (1TB) 970 Pro in sustained writes but the E18+176L 2TB devices do seem to https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/corsair-mp600-pro-xt-ss… and https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/seagate-firecuda-530-m2… Given the vagaries of SLC cache + direct-to-TLC + folding, it's not the entire time but the average sustained writes seems to beat the 970 Pro's 2700MB/s https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/samsung-980-pro-m-2-nvm… (I suspect if the dynamic SLC cache was eliminated it probably wouldn't have the drop to 1.6 GB/s but of course people will then complain about how quickly the SLC cache is filled.)

          These are tests on PCIe 4.0 systems, on PCIe 3.0 I suspect you won't get that much better performance than the 970 Pro at any time. Possibly this will be enough to mean the average will be lower than 2.7GB/s but I wouldn't be sure of that. And true a E18+176L 2TB drive will cost a fair bit more than a 1TB 970 Pro. OTOH 1TB is the maximum for the 970 Pro and if you're only after sustained writes perhaps it's not that you want a 1TB but you think you have no other options plus I think if you wait for a decent sale for each you'll probably get a fair amount better $/TB for the 2TB E18+176L. (I also think for most people who need very high sustained writes, they probably shouldn't still be using a PCIe 3.0 system.)

          • @Nil Einne: Yeah I agree, PCIe 4.0 SSDs are the way to go these days with support by all current mobile platforms (ADL, Zen 3) and most recent desktop mobos (? - not sure, not a desktop owner). I only bought a 970 Pro because it was too good of a deal at the time factoring in cashback from both ShopBack and Samsung themselves. I suspect that supply drying up has caused prices to stay high and even go up, making them poor purchases nowadays.

            The SK hynix Gold P31 is probably the PCIe 3.0 drive to beat on the laptop side, no other drive to date comes close in efficiency.

      True, its not really top tier in 2022 anymore.
      However, It's a decent buy at this price.

      • It is a good drive, and very good price for old PCs, laptops and tablets without PCIE 4.0

        • would not use the word old if people don’t have pcie4 , it’s fairly recent from when people upgrade their PCs …..my gen 11 i5 11500 has pcie4 doubt my gen 8 that runs windows 11 or my lap top that runs windows 11 is pcie4 ….

          • @garage sale: true , even if cpu supports pcie4 , the motherboard may not , as pcie4 was premium feature reserved for top range chipset back then

      • and at least its TLC not QLC.

  • +4

    It is the same drive as Western Digital Black SN750

    It's the same as Western Digital Black (2018), not Western Digital Black SN750 (2019)

  • Can someone tell me what the difference between this and something like this: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B07VXC9QMH/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_d…

      Kingston A2000 1TB is an entry level PCIE3x4 SSD with 2,200 MB/s sequential read, and 2,000 MB/s sequential write.

      SanDisk Extreme Pro 1TB is a top tier PCIE3x4 SSD with 3,400 MB/s sequential read, and 2,800 MB/s sequential write.

  • Despite all the arguments about performance we can all agree this will be better than any 2.5" hard drive.

  • which is better ? umart's p1 deal , or this

  • http://www.johnnylucky.org/data-storage/ssd-database.html
