    Tempted to get one… Any cheap item to get the 2 for 11% discount?

  • Moistacular on 14/08/2023 - 12:21

    This also works with other selected products via Amazon US. I bought the P5 Plus 2tb and Corsair DDR5 32gb and saved $30.77 which I was happy with. Ordered on 5 Aug and est delivery 26 Aug.

  • FujinShu on 14/08/2023 - 13:41

    Wait… It's cheaper to get 2 1TBs over 1 2TB?!?!

      That's how drive scaling has always worked unfortunately. The higher storage actually becomes more expensive to manufacture as you are squeezing it into the same drive part size. You pay more to have it take up less drive slots.

      1TB (x2) $94.45 x 2 = $188.90

      2TB = $170.99

      unless im missing something.. it's cheaper to grab the single 2TB vs 2 x 1TB?
      if 2tb is your goal

        No it wouldn't not with the 11% discount when purchasing 2. 2 X 1tb = $168.12

    This or the Lexar deal?

      Lexar and Crucial were both owned by Micron at one point
      Crucial is the better brand because its still owned by Micron (American) and uses their memory chips exclusively

      Lexar nvme drives also use Micron nand chips but could also uses something else.

      Longsys
      On August 31, 2017, the Lexar brand and trademark rights were acquired by Longsys, a flash memory company based in Shenzhen, China.

      Depends on what you are after. In general P5 Plus is better as it has DRAM. However, it does get tricky:

      • Lexar NM790's read up to 7400MB/s, write up to 6500MB/s sequential result is good marketing. Hard for people to resist / ignore.
      • P5 Plus does better in random read/write latency. However, most people don't look at the latency and just look at MB/s. NM790 does fine on 4K random read/write bandwidth tests.
      • Mixed usage is something most people and reviewers don't check. It is another weak side of NM790.
      • P5 Plus has hardware accelerated encryption support.
      • NM790 is optimised in areas which matter to most benchmark tests. In general usage and gaming, it is not easy to beat NM790 (because game developers don't bother using SSD for tasks which really require random read/write, they use memory / RAM for those tasks normally).
      • Price (for 1TB), there is still a gap.

      For 2TB, P5 Plus is a more consistent performer. But if price is a key issue and your usage is mostly light weight (general browsing, gaming) and you are okay with YMTC NAND, NM790 SSDs are currently well priced. Obviously, if it is for heavy workload or server usage, P5 Plus is better.

    Anyone in Adelaide wish to split a purchase? Work in CBD or alternatively live around Golden Grove

    Just a heads up, I’ve heard that P5 plus runs rather hot and needs a heatsink, so not suitable for laptop use.

  • Krondorf on 16/08/2023 - 23:15

    I wonder when it's going to ship…..
    Anyone else got shipping notification yet?
