Checked my email from Shopping Express.
Today's Epic Hour that attracted my attention:
Samsung 850 EVO 1TB SSD SATA MZ-75E1T0BW, $419.00 (RRP $699.00). Starting at 10PM(22:00)for one hour only. They say 20 units are only available.
So: Ready, Steady … and wait for 10PM - http://www.shoppingexpress.com.au/buy/samsung-850-evo-1tb-ss…
Yes, it is 419. Fixed. Thank you.
Body of post still says $449
Also, minimum shipping fee seems to be $8.95 (they don't offer pickup).
It's $419 which is only about a $35 saving from many other places. Far from the $280 they are suggesting.

jeez…. I should have brodened these last year when they were selling for $350ish in eBay sales
Yeah. Unfortunately the nand shortage is starting to bite! In 12/18 months when the new factories ramp up (Toshibas, Samsungs, and SanDisk's) hopefully should see prices come down again -wouldn't surprise me if there was some deliberate shortages however, I'm sure these companies are enjoying the high prices!
Shoulda woulda coulda.. nobody really knew at the time most likely. It's just like trading shares - hindsight is great.
buy two 500gb SDDs and put them in RAID 0, cheaper and faster
And less reliable :)
It's more expensive than the single 1TB 850 EVO.
Faster, more expensive and less reliable.
isn't it $419?
