    You can also get WD Green M.2 480GB ssd's for pretty cheap, just $102.40 after PODCAST however it's almost sold out, 8 units left.

      This is a better deal - same price per gb (~$0.21/GB) but faster

        • jd3shaw on 19/10/2018 - 14:00

          You should be able to find Cheaper SATA drives with the same speed

          This is a SATA M.2 not an nvme M.2. There is a difference in speed.
          SATA maxes out at around 540MB/s while nvme goes around 1500 upwards.

            @Taleria: My point is that no one should buy SATA M.2 if they can avoid it. and NVMe M.2. goes much higher than 1500. I was just stating that as minimum speed I would want from M.2. drive

            • Bigboomboom on 19/10/2018 - 14:29

              @jd3shaw: Because there are laptops that only has 1 M2 drive along with 1 traditional 2.5" drive. You would be using 2.5" for cheap HDD storage and you don't need NVMe which does nothing for 99% of users in term of speed. So a cheap SATA M.2 to speed up that 2 cores ages old laptop while being sensible in terms of $ spent.

              @jd3shaw: What happens if the end user does not have an nvme M.2 socket on their motherboard?
              SATA m.2 is a good compatible small form factor storage medium for this price.

              @jd3shaw: Not all M.2 slots are NVMe, some are only SATA.

                @dheywood: I know this. I'm just not sure why people are commenting this is faster than the WD Option if speed doesn't matter, just buy the cheapest if you're going for SATA.

            @Taleria: Yeah but if you don't need the speed, this is better for cable management.

            • Taleria on 20/10/2018 - 09:07

              @idonotknowwhy: I fully agree with you which is why I voted positively for this deal!
              I bought 1 to free up an HDD bay while utilising my spare M.2 (SATA only) slot.

          There's a difference between a M.2 SSD and a M.2 NVMe…

          Don't listen to me I only have a couple of 970 Evo's and 2x1080Ti I clearly don't know anything about cheap average hardware for laptops

            @jd3shaw:

            970 Evo

            Yep, I can tell. You didn't go for the pro version like I did, because you're cheap, and now you have a sluggish joke of a computer ;)

  • allenrong88 on 19/10/2018 - 12:20

    It seems SanDisk one is around 40% faster than WD Green based on userbenchmark. 8 bucks more will be totally worthy I believe.

  • jabroni on 19/10/2018 - 12:29

    are there any nvme ones at this price? why is msata always so cheap

    • [Deactivated] on 19/10/2018 - 12:36

      Faster = more expensive. Not hard to understand

    • Matt P on 19/10/2018 - 12:41

      Also looking for a NVMe drive. Keen on a paticular lenovo laptop but the hdd lets it down. Would quite happily buy a ~500gb replacement and swap out myself

    • HighAndDry on 19/10/2018 - 12:56

      Honestly the speed difference from a SATA to an NVMe drive will be fairly negligible in 99% of real world applications. Literally split second differences in loading times for most people. Having said that, I did personally opt to pay more of an NVMe drive over a SATA one when putting together my build earlier this year, but that was before SATA M.2 drives were this cheap.

      • Bigboomboom on 19/10/2018 - 14:31
        +2

        I opted for SATA so I can have ALL my stuff on SSD for very fast access. 2.5TB and counting.

        It would be a fortune to get that much on EVO 960/970.

        • HighAndDry on 19/10/2018 - 14:32
          +1

          Yeah. I have 1.5TB of SSDs and a 4TB HDD. With these kinds of prices…. I can see myself replacing my 4TB with SSDs very very soon.

        • sageownz on 19/10/2018 - 16:32

          I have a sff build with 2x m.2 & just enough room for 3x 2.5". I decided it would be best to have one high performance m.2 for boot & a large secondary m.2 for data so these sata ssds in a m.2 form factor are extremely helpful. still waiting for a larger performance m.2 to go cheap as I only have a 256gb 960. 3.2TB so far!

        A load of honest garbage that you can disprove by simply booting Windows.

          how many times do you load windows a day? I do it once a week maybe?

          Maybe use another example?

  • bestbarginever on 19/10/2018 - 12:40

    This is a really good deal for m.2 SATA. pity they don't do 1TB

  • [Deactivated] on 19/10/2018 - 13:44

    Stupid question. Does it fit into a 2.5" hdd bay?

    • Richardc on 19/10/2018 - 13:48

      Then go for 860 Evo would be easier.

    • HighAndDry on 19/10/2018 - 14:33
      +2

      No - this is an M.2 which is usually directly on your motherboard, if your motherboard supports it. You can get adapters for it, but 2.5" form factor SSDs are readily available so there's little reason to not just get one of those directly.

    • Wonderfool on 19/10/2018 - 17:14

      2.5" are commonly discounted. Just give it a few days.

  • adamp on 19/10/2018 - 16:32

    Ozbargainers…I need a 2242 M.2….any good deals out there for them?

  • DonWilson on 19/10/2018 - 22:45

    You can get a Samsung 860 Evo 500GB for $119 at MSY, regular every day price. I'd probably go with that.
