Original Coupon Deal

Have been on the lookout for a Gen 4 2TB NVME. Saw a deal for the Gigabyte 7000s which reminded me to check recent pricing, from benchmarks the Samsung or the WD Black SN850 are faster and this is a decent discount over recent pricing. I think cheapest it's been is around $420

EDIT: From RichardL's comment, can also claim a free copy of Rainbow 6 Extraction as per this deal

From pcpartpicker history this is a recent dip below lowest standard pricing.

Enjoy
(smaller drives may be well priced too but I haven't been keeping track of their recent prices)

  I assume this does not have a heatsink so as to put into a ps5

    I don't believe any Samsung drives come with a heatsink.

        Thanks, that SKU is news to me. Always good to be corrected rather than ignorant :)

  depends on what you are using it for the PNY 2tb deal posted is only $209 delivered. its still in stock

    jmcc on 14/02/2022 - 18:42

    for other people's reference, PNY is a gen 3 drive, about 1/3rd the advertised speed of the 980 pro (gen 4). For most tasks, the perceptible difference is probably pretty negilible.

    I bought one of those and wished I hadn't.. Sustained writes are around 70mb/sec.. Quite appalling really..

    • 

      MaxHashrate on 14/02/2022 - 19:34

      Is it supposed to be that low? Specs says 430mb/s

        Copying 85gb from a Samsung 970 EVO to the PNY took 15 mins..

        Once the buffer fills, it's excruiatingly slow..

  I’m running the 970 Evo plus 2TB on the PC and it’s pretty warm. Sits around 70c on normal load.

  is 2Tb overkill for the PS5?

    No, it might feel like that right now, but it won't be.

    I still put PS4 games on my external HDD (4TB). Put it this way, I cannot transfer all of the PS4 games on the external HDD to my 2TB NVMe SSD (insufficient space). There are still quite a lot of games which I own or on PS Plus which I deleted or not yet installed.

    However, for now, I think 980 Pro is an overkill. I bought the cheap PNY CS3040 for $315 + a $10 heatsink. Still expensive though I reckon, but PS5 needs a gen4 SSD.

    Depends on how many games you play regularly. I personally don’t mind re-downloading in advance of sessions.

  Samsung 980 PRO 2TB with Heatsink now $500 with various vendors on ebay. Buy ebay giftcards via Shopback for a further 3% cashback- This seems the cheapest option right now with factory heatsink.
