Pretty sure this is the cheapest ever for the 1TB by some margin. Still one of the fastest Gen 4 NVME drives available.

I think that price is for everyone not just Prime members and not just for Prime day. I'm not sure how to tell but usually someone is quick to point out any errors!

NB Price dropped but now Prime only deal - Price is still $158.32 for non-Prime folk

2TB is ̶$̶3̶7̶7̶.̶3̶2̶
Now $314.48 (Thanks Tilania)

    Same SSD with Heatsink for 182 aud https://www.amazon.com.au/WD_Black-Internal-Gaming-Technolog…

    • Spawn Peak on 12/07/2022 - 18:40

      Anyone have experience with Amazon UK and warranty?

      • dontbeatightarse on 12/07/2022 - 18:42

        I bought the Crucial P5 Plus 164 from Amazon UK no issues. Returns are same as AU.

        • BusMan247 on 12/07/2022 - 22:14

          Hey I see this on Amazon now. Is it good for ps5? Any major difference with SN850 or 980pro? I have no idea about the stuff people mention on nand types etc

            @BusMan247: I watched a review for ps5 Crucial P5 Plus is fastest for gaming then this and Samsung 980 pro second.

            @BusMan247: Yes, Samsung drive firmware is always been a little unreliable, I've always had some sort of issue with Samsung drives whether it be HDD or SSD over many years. All my WD drives have been flawless, you don't need to update the firmware out of the box for the SN850. I have the SN850 in my PS5 for nearly a year now and it has run like a dream. There were cases of some 980's needing firmware update as they were not reading and writing at correct speeds out of the box in the PS5. I don't trust Samsung drives anymore.

      • kungfuman on 13/07/2022 - 10:20

        amazon are good with any sale as long as its handled by Amazon as the seller. So it doesn't matter if its UK US or AU they will handle warrenty and customer service the same way from my experience the only time you have troubles is if its a third party seller.

    • JL1 on 12/07/2022 - 23:08

      It's what we need for ps5 yeah? Is it worth getting if not playing that many games on ps5?

      • jassono on 13/07/2022 - 09:23
        +1

        Yes but you'll need to grab a heatsink to add onto it.
        I bought a Sabrent heatsink designed for the PS5 (link below) - very easy to install and it is made to replace the SSD slot cover , which in theory helps dissipate heat better than if you got any other heatsink and the SSD+heatsink had to fit back under the SSD cover/lid thing that you have to otherwise replace if using a SSD.

        I got this SSD (for $249 in February - glad to see prices are dropping but burning a little. But i got good usage out of it in these past months so not complaining too much).
        No problems so far using this SSD. It's lightning fast to load, same speed as loading off the internal storage

        https://www.amazon.com.au/SABRENT-Heatsink-PS5-Console-SB-PS…

        And worth? depends on your usage ofc - i found my internal storage got quickly used up by just a select handful of PS4 games i brought over from my old console, plus a few new games I really wanted to play.
        Helps ease the headache of having to otherwise constantly delete old games i play casually for new ones. eventually all games got relegated down to 'casual' and got deleted, and completely forgotten

        • JL1 on 13/07/2022 - 17:59

          I have more ps4 games than ps5 and just wondering if it is something I must need and to buy it now at a good price or something I don't need!

        This one has a heatsink already

        Deal of the day for Prime Members: WD_Black SN850 1TB NVMe Gaming SSD with Heatsink - Works with Playstation 5; M.2 2280; PCIe Gen4 Technology, up to 7000 MB/s Read speeds https://amzn.asia/d/h0yvvAu

        yes you juust need to buy a heat sync so it doesn't over heat.

    • TozBargain on 13/07/2022 - 14:29

      Are motherboard M.2 heatsinks good enough as a substitute?

  • dealsforlife on 12/07/2022 - 18:31

    Just bought this for $231.92 on 27 June. Does anyone know if they'll refund the difference?

    Edit - mine was with the Heatsink. Still curious. Might email/chat their CS team

    • SammyK300 on 12/07/2022 - 18:33

      They'll make you re-buy and return original

    • Hrjd on 12/07/2022 - 18:34

      Nope, return it and order the discounted price.

    • MisterTree on 12/07/2022 - 18:34
      +3

      Last time I tried something like that they told me buy the new one and send the old one back. Others have reported success so maybe I'm just not charming enough.

    • Sebring on 12/07/2022 - 19:01
      +1

      They will advise you to make a new order and return the old one.

    • dealsforlife on 12/07/2022 - 22:41

      Just got off the chat and you all were right. I've already got a bunch of PS5 games on there so might give it a miss on the $58 difference. Am I not a true ozbargainer? 🤣

    • mackdiddy on 13/07/2022 - 11:13

      Heatsink version is like $175 so they should let you refund old one for new one.

      • dealsforlife on 13/07/2022 - 11:40

        Yeah they said they don't price match. I've decided not to return it because there are some PS5 games on the SSD already and I realised this morning that I chucked out the packaging already.

  • Snoop on 12/07/2022 - 18:39

    I think that price is for everyone not just Prime members and not just for Prime day. I'm not sure how to tell but usually someone is quick to point out any errors!

    Sign out, add to cart, check price. 😉

    Is there any reason to upgrade to a PCIe 4 Nvme from a PCIe 3x4? I remember last time I checked there wasn't any real advantage for gaming and general use (unless your every nanosecond matters when loading into windows or whatever).

    • shabaka on 12/07/2022 - 19:10

      on a PC? not really.

    • OssieA on 12/07/2022 - 19:22

  • Lofty248 on 12/07/2022 - 18:53

    Ughh, Literally just ordered a sabrant rocket q 1tb this morning for the same price… Should I return the sabrant and get this instead?

    Not fussed about the gen 4, just wondering if the WD is the better drive.

    • agk2020 on 12/07/2022 - 19:05

      Yes, either this or the Samsung 980 Pro with Heatsink, just on their long service in the industry and reputation for reliability alone. I don't think Sabrent is a bad choice either but I would generally opt for those two above any other brand for storage, cheers.

    • WhyAmICommenting on 12/07/2022 - 19:46

      I’ve done some research on Sabrent - I’m going to return my 2TB to Amazon. Their warranty sounds like a nightmare - return to the US at your own cost.

  • mikokik5 on 12/07/2022 - 19:03

    Hows the temps on these?

  • RI4V4N on 12/07/2022 - 19:04

    Will this work in a gen 3 slot? I'd rather just buy 2 of the same

    • Candeal on 12/07/2022 - 19:07

      Pretty sure it will but don't see any benefit, might as well get a cheaper gen 3

  • spacenoodle on 12/07/2022 - 19:13

    • scud70 on 12/07/2022 - 19:17

      Yes but a heatsink is recommended/required

  • reacher on 12/07/2022 - 19:17

    is this good for laptop upgrade, a bit concern about the heat

  • Yotronics on 12/07/2022 - 19:29

    2tb with heatsink for $298, only 2 left !!

    • bigtom_999 on 12/07/2022 - 19:31

    Got the heat sink version for $173.47.
    Thanks OP!

  • Mdn on 12/07/2022 - 20:46

    I see these drives get hot I have the b550 msi Meg is the heat sync good enough that comes with the motherboard cheers

    • DiceySlicey on 12/07/2022 - 20:48

      you don't really need a heat sink if your using it for PC and doing gaming and just general work. Watch some YouTube videos for explanation.

  • Mdn on 12/07/2022 - 20:49

    yup just using for OS and Gaming was a toss up with this and the sn770

    • reacher on 12/07/2022 - 23:24

      me too, end up buying this one, hopefully the heat is not too bad inside my laptop

      • Meowmix on 13/07/2022 - 11:18

        Just note if you don't reach anywhere near the advertised speeds in your laptop its because most laptops have gen 3 connections

  • grackfight420 on 13/07/2022 - 00:24

    To buy this 1TB drive or a 2TB from a mid-tier range now, or wait until I actually build a PC later in the year when the next generation of SFF cases finally come out

    • Mistredo on 13/07/2022 - 00:57

      What SFF cases are expected to release later this year?

        Not sure if Q4 2022 or later, but I believe the Ncase M1 successors are in development, as are the next iterations of the Meshilicious (one from streacom x ncase, one? from ssupd), Dan Case C4, Dan x Lian Li A3 (mATX) and others I've forgotten based off the SFF Gurus discord. Apparently some of them are waiting on final Nvidia card size specs to finalise case size lol

        There's also the recently released FormD T1 v2, but that's a bit too small for me.

  • productred on 13/07/2022 - 09:47

    for a 1TB 7000mbps drive, this is a very good deal.
    for a 2TB one, the samsung 980 pro ($343.56) in the other prime deal is the better buy

    my2cents

    • bargainsniper on 13/07/2022 - 11:01

      Justification?

      • kungfuman on 13/07/2022 - 11:23

        more storage and speed is always better.

    • kungfuman on 13/07/2022 - 11:23

      100% the 2tb 980 pro is a better buy a 9 months ago it costed me about 450 on sale for that so your getting a seal for that price. very good for a PS5.

      WD nvme I don't know alot about but I heard they are also good.

  • kungfuman on 13/07/2022 - 12:04

  • mackdiddy on 13/07/2022 - 14:27

    Was gonna get another 980 Pro simply so that I can manage all my SSDs via Magician but went with this since it's cheaper and apparently faster.

    • abjsdhasehasee on 13/07/2022 - 19:21

      Literally identical speed. Make sure to install wd software tho
