    Thanks Op grabbed a Blue one $4.11 for me on paypal.

    • dcep on 28/11/2022 - 20:20

      As noted by Froot Loops , if you select AUD currency on Aliexpress, you get AUD$ 3.98

      • Froot Loops on 28/11/2022 - 20:34

        Yup. Set AUD on the AliExpress site (you can still pay with PayPal). PayPal's rates suck.

      • ssfps on 28/11/2022 - 21:22

        My currency is set to AUD, yet it comes up $4.11 for me too.

        • Froot Loops on 28/11/2022 - 22:22

          Weird. They might use a live FX convertor (Mastercard uses a daily rate).

        • megadeth on 28/11/2022 - 22:23

          Best to buy from overseas sellers in USD and pay using 28 degree type cards that use mastercard rates for conversion.

          • Datatemp on 29/11/2022 - 00:57

            @megadeth: yes, using 28degree paid in usd, ended up $3.90aud

    $3.98 for me via PayPal (for both transaction) using AUD on the AliExpress website. Cheers OP

    Just got one for $4ish AUD

    I almost gave up again but ended up getting one.

    I suspect these won't work with Raspberry Pi like there other models won't work.

    • Loopholio on 29/11/2022 - 10:40
      +2

      I assume this is because these enclosurs are USB powered. Raspberry Pi offers very little power via USB.

      • whats up skip on 29/11/2022 - 12:19

        No. Other enclosure chipsets were not compatible. It caused errors.

        • Loopholio on 29/11/2022 - 13:04

          Ah I see. Luckily for me I didn't run into that issue. I've successfully tried a few 2TB mechanical drives (the kind with the drive built into the case).

      • G-rig on 29/11/2022 - 13:01

        I was using one of these with a Pi4 revB 4G and it was totally fine:
        ORICO 2139U3 USB3 to 2.5" SATA Enclosure

        Obiously go for an SSD, you would need to supply additional power for bigger hard drives 3.5" etc

    • G-rig on 29/11/2022 - 11:54

      I've had an enclosure plugged into Rpi4 with no issues, just have to make sure it's ~<2TB SSD 2.5"
      Now have a similar M.2 caddy plugged in - neither draw too much power.

  • bdl on 28/11/2022 - 20:13

    this also worked for the black one for me (!?)

    But I purchased the Amazon deal last week for $11 :(

    • Froot Loops on 28/11/2022 - 22:23

      I paid $15.25 on the 18th, being super desperate. I feel your pain. I purchased 2, using 2 accounts to make sure it doesn't happen again

        I'll return the Amazon one lol

        • Froot Loops on 29/11/2022 - 00:22

          I must say, I'm considering it.

          • FeZZa21 on 29/11/2022 - 12:00

            @Froot Loops: should be free if you dont open the envelope it comes in, just remove the labels and take it back to auspost for a free return after requesting a return in amazon

    • reloxation on 29/11/2022 - 09:45

      Amazon one was USB 3.1 Gen 2 and USB-C, this one is micro-B and USB 3.0 if I'm not mistaken

  • [Deactivated] on 28/11/2022 - 20:50

    NVMe is better than 2.5" SSD right?

    • Clear on 28/11/2022 - 20:51
      +8

      Yep NVMe is faster. This is still a good option if you have any old 2.5" SATA HDDs or any of the countless cheap 2.5" SSDs going on sale.

    • bargaino on 28/11/2022 - 21:27

      NVMe is faster than SATA. m2 vs 2.5" is not the relevant point.
      But for an external drive, it is unlikely to matter at all.

  • Empharand on 28/11/2022 - 20:53

    Thank you OP - Got it for $3.98

        yeah just reread description. my bad

  • BigRiggs24 on 28/11/2022 - 21:13

    Got it for AU $1.37…? I think I had a new user type discount because I logged in with my 2nd Google account. Had to enter card details because Paypal would not work under a certain threshhold.

    Hopefully I am going to get what I selected (white enclosure) and not a rock or something.

    I did not apply any discount.

    • Clear on 28/11/2022 - 21:15

      Yep new user bonus. I spoke to my buddy at Orico after posting and this is certainly a legit deal from them.

  • Bangerbargain on 28/11/2022 - 21:15

    Cheap as chups but I dont have a use for it but not ozbargain style buy now think later…

    • smartazz104 on 28/11/2022 - 22:18

      Just wait for a cheap SSD deal.

  • Pchappy on 28/11/2022 - 21:20

    is there a speed difference between usb c and micro b

    • Froot Loops on 28/11/2022 - 22:32

      USB-C to USB-C is faster in general (your drive / case needs to keep up). For example USB-C to USB-C Gen 2 at 10Gbps, compared to above USB-MB to USB-A @ 5/6Gbps.

      I'm not suggesting USB-C example is a good deal, it's the first with TB3 speeds on amazon I found. For the price of above (USB-MB/A) is a very good deal @ $4 (I paid $15 for the same one last week on Amazon as the cheapest and I was very desperate).

      • Agret on 30/11/2022 - 13:32

        In this product page the top row are USB-C enclosures. The picture shows USB-C as 6gbps and USB3 as 5gbps so I can't imagine much difference between these particular ones. Look for a 10gbps USB-C enclosure if you want to run a fast SSD.

    • bargaino on 29/11/2022 - 10:11
      +1

      It is the extra-wide micro-B, not the standard one, so both are usb-3.0 speed.

  • Pchappy on 28/11/2022 - 21:42

    needs to say 1 per person/code only. wouldnt let me buy 10+ at that price

    • Clear on 28/11/2022 - 21:43

      All AliExpress codes are single use. You'd need 10 accounts :P

      • Pchappy on 28/11/2022 - 22:10

        ahhh thanks for the clarification. Much appreciated

  • JeremRrss on 28/11/2022 - 22:34

    USB B is a deal breaker, have to carry a special cable just for it. But I guess I gonna jump on the usb C despite the shipping fee

    • G-rig on 29/11/2022 - 05:05

      Easy enough if you have to carry around the drive anyway too. Those Proprietary connectors are a bit annoying though if you break or lose one, just get USB C.

  • altomic on 28/11/2022 - 22:54

    Is that express Post?

    received today. thanks OP

  • BigRiggs24 on 15/12/2022 - 18:36

    Got mine today! Way sooner than I was expecting.

    Fun tip: If you were like me and only bought this as a cheap way to use with 3.5 inch drives, looking at the connector face on, on the left side there is a little gap where you can get a small wedge under. If you pry the outer plastic off, it reveals a tiny PCB that you can use for larger drives :)

    edit lol not enough volts
