Back in stock if anyone missed out last time. Previously posted here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/134320
(had a look at the previous posting).. One user posted performance (wholistic on 22/02/2014 - 13:34) 95MB/s Write 105MB/s Read) … Anyone can substantiate?
Dont know about the 2T one, i have the 1T and has been working flawlessly for one year already. Very good unit.
I bought it from the last deal I get ~95-100MB/s write speed.
Might pop into Officeworks and get it for $132 ;)
standard 2.5" sata drive inside? or is it soldered to a pcb?
I'd like to know too.
It's about 50% thicker than a standard 2.5" drive. It's not soldered on to a PCB though, it has a SATA to USB adapter that comes off easily. So you could put this in a desktop, but it wouldn't fit in a laptop.
Holy crap… just realised you can price match with Officeworks over the phone… And free delivery! I might be a bit slow to figure this out, but my lazy factor just increased! Ordered $132.05
But you miss out on another 5% off with your ING Orange Ozbargain Everday Visa Debit card.
It's over $100 so you can't use paypass
of course u can… split your payment or buy gift cards
You can split your payment. $99.95 and $32.10. $32.10 in cash if you want to abide by ING's T&C.
$99.99 – 5% ING = $94.99 + $32.06 = $127.05
My nearest officeworks store is 11.9km.
Toyota Corolla approx. 9L/100km @ approx. $1.60/L (Premium 98) = $14.40/100km
= $1.71 for 11.9km
Total cost = $128.76
My buy price delivered $132.05
Total saving $3.29
17 mins each way = 34mins @ $38/hr (my current pay) = Total price $150.29
= $18.24 more expensive than the $132.05 I paid.
So you graduated with the Maths and Finance degree combined?
you didn't factor in the time it took to do those calculations
Visit OW store. Discover in-store clearance special, say https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/134747. Estimate original price: at least $10. Purchase 10. Subtract 5%. Add petrol and your pay $23.24. Total minimum saving $75.68.
… billed in 10 minute increments.
nah if he did he would account for vehicle depreciation for the 23.8km added to the odometer. Once drive your vehicle with the equivalent distance to reaching the moon from earth, its a write-off.
I think if you really wanted to account for every dollar and cent, you wouldn't put RON98 in a Corolla. Just saying!
performance corolla maybe :) 1.8L Engine of pure awesome needs 98 high octain lol
1.8L VVT-i. 0-100km/h in 15mins.
Did calculations at work, so no loss incurred. Was still getting paid. Just made me look busy in front of the boss.
Forgot to double the distance to Officeworks for two-way trip.
Currently back to $149, though using the SAVEMORE 10% off code ( Valid Saturday 8th March until 11:59PM AEDST) you can get it delivered for $134.10.
Can anybody who purchased one before comment on the performance? (read/write speeds).
I read an amazon review where the reviewer said the 2Tb was rather slow and prone to failures while the 1Tb version is faster and seems more stable/reliable..
