    Gold or Plat for normal PC use?

    • ChairmanMeow on 22/12/2023 - 01:43

      Plat.

        Ty, waiting for my $10 amazon credit to come through so I can get it for $178, which is the price of the all time lowest as posted on Ozb

          I might be wrong but credit in amazon works differently. You won't see it in your balance. It gets applied automatically once you add item in cart. Try that and see if it reduces price by $10 in cart.

            @Sam816: Correct for promotional credits. However I’m fairly sure they only apply to sold and shipped by Amazon au products and so wouldn’t apply here anyway.

            • dabbberboi on 22/12/2023 - 09:21

              @Yekul: (profanity) me shoulda went with Prezzee. I'll just use the -10 on another transaction

    • reader64 on 22/12/2023 - 03:02

      20 dollar price diff mate

      Go the plat

      Way better IOPS,a much better controler,faster read writes

      The Gold makes sense as s 2nd game drive

      Put a p41 as boot and main drive,and just at that price get the gold as mass storage

      • tm32 on 22/12/2023 - 08:19

        Using P41 from last deal as main drive. Awesome speeds.

        Only issue was cloning OS over, either the sw or something I did or had prior messed up the UEFI boot. Took ages to kind of fix. I really should just of done a clean install after many years.

        • cdaddy on 25/12/2023 - 17:17

          I had issues cloning until I decided to just use the software on the Hynix website and it worked straight away

      Literally won’t even notice the difference, for ‘normal pc use’ (making some assumptions of course).

      Seriously the $20 extra is just a waste of money for average users.

      Edit: People get caught up in the ‘on paper’ stats of the gen4 drives but seriously in real world every day user usage most people would rarely do anything to notice a difference at all. I’m sure there will now be a flood of niche replies on how it’s an absolute game changer.

        +1 just gonna put it out there that I swapped my boot drive from an 860 Evo sata to a sn550 nvme (both 1tb) like 5-6 years ago and hardly noticed any difference in just general desktop use.

      • leetec on 22/12/2023 - 13:02

        Not true, double iops speed definitely can notice the different for daily usage. Although the difference is mostly less than a second, but it's more snappier, worths the extra money comparing cpu upgrade. And all OS will be slower after using a while.

        • Mintchip on 22/12/2023 - 14:52

          Less than a second's difference? Not sure if I'm sold.

          • lew380 on 24/12/2023 - 15:29

            @Mintchip: Like most things, go back to the old drives and you will see how those 1s make a difference. But your right, it won't change your life, ignorance is bliss for your wallet.

  • dfg555 on 22/12/2023 - 01:27

    one day we will see consumer grade SLC drives at this size/price

    • BROKENKEYBOARD on 22/12/2023 - 10:40

      I don't think we'll ever see consumer SLC drives again.

    Dam. kinda looking around for a decent Gen4 4TB.

  • bananabendera on 22/12/2023 - 07:21

    Very happy with the 1TB Gold in my Framework laptop.

  • pikeplacemkt on 22/12/2023 - 07:57

    just concerned why it is not compatible for use in a ps5. anyone aware if this would fit in a mele quieter3c mini pc? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/819352).

      The gold drives are too slow for a PS5.

  • chickenfac on 22/12/2023 - 08:42

    P41 was $178 last deal :(

    • dabbberboi on 22/12/2023 - 09:20

      Prezzee for extra $10 on gift card purchase for 178

    How are these drives ? Are they reliable ?

    • SevereComplaint on 22/12/2023 - 11:43

      I've had the P41 for around 6 months, no issues so far. Definitely recommend.

      • Ifndefx on 22/12/2023 - 11:46

        Thank you

    Thanks, was originally going to buy Crucial P3 as secondary game drive (crucial had sales on Black Friday) if it goes on sale.

    $3 extra for a better drive, I'll take that deal. Looks like this time around SK Hynix is going on boxing day sale and no sale for Crucial.

  • jerdp on 22/12/2023 - 23:09

    Would a Lexar NM790 for $90 be a better buy vs the gold p31 1tb? Sorry if this is a newbie question.

    • HaveANiceDay on 23/12/2023 - 00:34

      The P31 should be a better drive

    • Look Up on 23/12/2023 - 07:32

      PS5 - NM790
      Everything else - P31

      • jerdp on 23/12/2023 - 09:15

        Straight to the point - thank you both! xD

  • MrJJ on 23/12/2023 - 11:23

    Would the 2tb variants got into a ROG Ally?

    Awesome! Thanks Op, got a gold one.

  • Ryotarou on 26/12/2023 - 20:21

    Is Platinum p41 good for gaming and how does this compare to Kingston Fury Renegade? Is it worth paying an extra $10 for Kingston from MSY? https://www.msy.com.au/product/kingston-fury-renegade-2tb-pc…

    • HaveANiceDay on 28/12/2023 - 19:44

      They're quite comparable in some ways but the P41 is better, you don't really need the speed for either of them for games either way. Between those two, just go for the P41.
