      If you aren't yet running SSD only in your main rig you don't have enough SSDs :)

      • pennypincher98 on 02/11/2018 - 09:26

        The thing is I am already, just got another 16 or so in case one dies :P

        The day I can afford 24TB of solid state storage I'll be happy. Until then it's HDD all the way.

        • MarketingCair22 @ Scorptec Computers on 02/11/2018 - 09:49

          Got a few TB in the main rig of solid SSD then 36TB of HDD in the server :)

      SSD become another Xiaomi ….

      • tonyjzx on 02/11/2018 - 09:31

        It becomes a depreciating asset. 256gb ssds used to be close to $100.

        Now they are like $60 or so.

        120Gb ssds are becoming almost… eh, why bother with this?

        • dcep on 02/11/2018 - 11:58

          but 29 bux is the lowest entry pricepoint to ssd world for old laptops/pc

            @superforever: Didn't you see the 3D Printer bargains? Make your own drawers!

            Ender 3 is $270 on eBay, use discounted codes along with discounted eBay gift cards to bring it down even further. A bit more expensive than the Aldi one but has a heated bed, better build quality and is open source, so you can easily mod it to add features.

    Using an eneloop powered chinese torch to look in a cupboard for Bargain SSD drives would probably be single most OzB thing to do ever!

  • lostn on 02/11/2018 - 09:53

    it's cheap but I'm not sure who's still using 128GB these days.

    • Soothsayer on 02/11/2018 - 14:43

      2 use cases for me - speed up the old PC used by parents for web browsing (and more than enough room for their photos), and to revitalize an old laptop to keep spare / in the garage, in which case storage is not needed. Cheaper the better so I'm glad there's still a 128GB option.

      • lostn on 02/11/2018 - 19:40

        I don't have any old machines that don't already have SSDs but I guess that's one way to restore life to them.

        What I found is that old systems don't boot that much faster. They get stuck in some part of the boot process for a few seconds. Newer machines don't have those speed bumps.

    • Tacooo on 02/11/2018 - 18:39

      All the stores I manage. Windows is ~25-30GB. Programs are ~5GB. The rest is just gravy, baby.

  • GangGang on 02/11/2018 - 09:57

    Great price. Shipping kills it for me though as it brings it around $42 which is not worth it.

    No stock in Sydney store and the drive is to far for me anyway.

    A deal was published just over a month ago for this product at the same price but free shipping included. I would be all over it.

    • MarketingCair22 @ Scorptec Computers on 02/11/2018 - 10:00

      We can have it transferred to Sydney for you at no extra cost as long as you order before the deal expires.

      • TaurusHead on 02/11/2018 - 10:23

        If you could make the pick up around Sydney CBD would be really appreciated.

        • MarketingCair22 @ Scorptec Computers on 02/11/2018 - 10:27

          I mean transferred to our Sydney store in Macquarie Park, hah.

      • GangGang on 02/11/2018 - 10:30

        Yeah that's the one. I searched for it for about 10 minutes and couldn't find it.

  • iironhide on 02/11/2018 - 10:18

    The first ssd I bought was 240gb for $400, now looking at this.

  • alz on 02/11/2018 - 10:20

    If only DDR4 ram is that cheap!!!!!

  • skyva on 02/11/2018 - 10:38

    None in stock at stores I can see. I usually pick up from stores as I have 2 nearby.

    • MarketingCair22 @ Scorptec Computers on 02/11/2018 - 10:42

      We had a few units at Clayton specifically which have sold out, we do however, have PLENTY in stock at our distribution centre and will send to any of our stores for pick up at no extra cost.

  • adgnetworks on 02/11/2018 - 11:34

    You are better off grabbing a drive off ebay with free delivery, unless you live/work next door to Scorptec.

    $32 at futu after 20% off for the WD green
    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Western-Digital-WD-Green-120GB-2…?

    $35.05 for the Kingston from PCMeal with 5% off.
    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kingston-SSDNow-A400-120GB-240GB…?

    Lots of similar pricing from various sellers.

      But not Intel…

      They're not all made the same.

    • MarketingCair22 @ Scorptec Computers on 02/11/2018 - 14:44

      The actual real world performance of those two SSDs is barely above a decent HDD - the Intel is far superior.

      Kingston A400s and the like have their place but it's not comparable to an average Intel/Samsung.

  • Piranha2004 on 02/11/2018 - 14:46

    Hmm might buy two and stripe them to make 1x 256gb volume. Anyone done stripping in Windows 7? Any issues to consider?

      I've done stripping in my bedroom but never in Windows.

    • vash12 on 02/11/2018 - 20:45

      Yep, done software raid on win 7 before. Pretty straight forward.
