    Nice one OP.

    My wallet is exhausted. It’s now Tuesday and I’m still buying unnecessary things.

      Ha ha.. I used to do that sometime ago :)

    How can it be portable?

    • PainToad on 27/11/2018 - 07:14

      With a USB enclosure.

      Well it had to get to you somehow - so it must be portable.

  • CyberMurning on 27/11/2018 - 07:06

    Why it says portable? Anyone carry this Around like USB stick?
    Or we supposed to put this in an enclosure?

    • Taegukgi on 27/11/2018 - 07:19

      Already in an enclosure.

        So do we just need a SATA -> USB cable or something ? (excuse ignorance here)

      • Shwayne on 27/11/2018 - 16:05

        But all SSD's are in an enclosure…

        • hollykryten on 28/11/2018 - 09:31

          Hey but in that case all hard drives are in an enclosure. I mean the platters are inside right. Gee.

          It's not in an enclosure unless it comes with a USB port on it.

  • issachar on 27/11/2018 - 07:09

    Do you ever sleep chibot?

      I am powered by energon cubes so minimal sleep required.

    Thanks chibot, perfect Time Machine backup disc for my MacAir.

    This appears to only have SATA power and data interface. Calling it portable is a bit misleading. It's no more 'portable' than any other bare drive.

    Hopefully it at least comes with a SATA to USB cable but I don't see any mention of this.

    • idonotknowwhy on 27/11/2018 - 09:51

      It's portable in that you can store it in your pocket while travelling?

      Seriously though, thanks, I was going to buy it, didn't realise it wasn't USB.

      • altomic on 27/11/2018 - 10:02

        i have to agree.
        this is just a regular internal SSD
        it's portable just the same as an internal 3.5" HDD is - i.e. you can fit it in your pocket - but it's not a "plugNplay" external device.

        unless you bought a SATA—USB cable as listed above.

  • micemeat on 27/11/2018 - 10:41

    Mine was $28.80 but thanks hell good price.

  • hambuger on 27/11/2018 - 11:04

    $28.82 for me but still a good price. Not expecting the fastest drive but it'll be in a fairly old laptop so eh

  • Borg on 27/11/2018 - 11:40

    What a strange Ad in saying it is "Portable" yet is just a standard (slow) SSD internal HDD with no method of direct external connection. Portable = being able to connect/disconnect to multiple devices on the fly via eg. USB port. OK so it doesn't say "External" but that's more a play on words! Hope nobody gets misled and buys thinking it is in fact a portable drive!

    As an SSD drive its rather slow at Read 212.72MB/s Write: 241.55MB/s. Would rather pay $7 more for an Intel one for say $35 locally at eg. mwave which has a Read:550MB/s, Write: 500MB/s. My opinion only though.

    • donnot on 27/11/2018 - 13:12

      My opinion only though

      Definitely not only yours - not sure why this deal is so popular… Also get a 5-year warranty with the Intel.

      • greenie4242 on 27/11/2018 - 15:28

        Those are sequential speeds too. Random R/W speeds are no doubt abysmal. It is a good deal for a 'disposable' SSD, but for a boot drive you're better to buy a Crucial or Samsung SSD locally for ~$39 using an eBay 20% off code. Then you also don't have to worry about overseas warranty issues.

        I was considering buying one for my mother's ageing 10 year old laptop, but have a feeling this EAGET wouldn't be much faster than the newer model 500GB hard disk I put in it recently which tops out about 150MB/s plus has a cache so random speeds aren't much slower for small files.

  • Bob81 on 27/11/2018 - 13:07

    I assume this is TLC memory. Can anybody confirm?

  • Shwayne on 27/11/2018 - 16:06

    This is a SSD, there is nothing "portable" about it that distinguishes it from a standard 2.5" SSD.

  • error619 on 27/11/2018 - 19:41

    I fail to see why this is a Bargain. I recently picked up a WD Green for $27.95 Delivered, and this it twice this speed..and a established brand. And Australian Warranty

    • slimpickings on 28/11/2018 - 01:00

      That was a good price. I've been keeping an eye on 120gb prices for the last 6 months and it's only dipped below $30/drive delivered a handful of times, mostly in the last few weeks.

      It wont get much lower than this. Bigger brands will stop 120gb production soon, we might get a few deals on clearance stock, and then 240gb drives will start to close in on the $30 price point.

  • Turneron on 27/11/2018 - 23:12

    This looks pretty good and cheap. Thanks

    EAGET, The well known brand?
    Who makes these things?
    Why are they so expensive? WD gets down to $19, and we have heard of them as a company.
    Why are they so slow? Are they loaded with microSD cards in parallel?

    If 500GB+ for another $10, and local warranty, there might be a reason to own one?

    Why so many + votes?
    Do they have a great proven record, why the praise?

  • hambuger on 28/11/2018 - 14:06

    I wasn't able to find too much about this brand but did find a YT review for a slightly different model.

    I think even a WD Green would beat that. What a waste of $28.82 - I feel dumb.
