    It’s showing me €585.99 / $1,019.28?

    • +8

      Don't let them charge you in AUD, also, I'm at the final checkout and the price right now is €564.89 for me.

      • CaN you remove heatsink? I'd like to put it into a USB4 enclosure like I did a WD SN850X 8TB

  • So much storage!

    • Perfect for my steam library!

      • Do you plan to keep all the games installed locally?

        • +2

          If you have a decent sized library, then 8TB is nowhere near enough to keep everything installed.

          • +2

            @Nom: But why would you want to keep your entire steam library installed on PC?

            • @azngamer: why do you want 20mb of storage

              why do you want 4gb of ram

              why do you want to own when you can pay a subscription

              why do you want photos, music or videos locally when you can stream

              why don't you work off virtual pcs

              why don't you use a dumb client and pay for cloud compute

              why do you want more than a handful of games installed, you can only play one thing at a time!

              why does your phone need more storage?

              These dumb questions have been asked since drives were under 1GB in size. Offer them a budget phone with little memory and barely any local storage and they refuse to buy it, people want and need faster, more efficient and larger storage. If they were in charge of the industry we would still be in the stone age hammering away at rocks to make 'tablets'.

        are you playing that many games? i cant even finish one modern game in a month

  • How many ai girlfriends can I fit into 8 TB

    • as many as ai shit videos.

    • 8 Trans Binary?

    • Which app is the best for creating ai grilfriends in 2026? I came across some tiktok videos made by a chinese app called 豆包 or something.

    • Only an AI girlfriend would say that

      • +1

        His AI gf wanted slow 5600 rpm.

        • 2.5 or 3.5" ?

          • +2

            @whyisave: Why not 5.25?

            • -1

              @Yummy: …because I thought the premise was about getting SSD, with a slow 5600 rpm spindle

              I wasn't aware of a 5.25" spindle drive.

              • +3

                @whyisave: The Quantum Bigfoot was one, such a comically big thing that was like 3500rpm

          This deal is in line with historical prices, likely ATL.

            @ozilicious: Your mistake was posting on a weekend. The serial whinges always come out in force.

  • Lol at putting 8tb into your ps5 for $1k.

    • +4

      Almost as funny as spending thousands on a GPU for a PC.

      • +1

        I'm not even a console guy and this was a great rebuttal. lol

  • +8

    I think the metric that should matter more is $/TB and not just the $ ATL.

    • +4

      Definitely, $125/TB beats anything I can see available for any 8TB Gen4 NVMe SSD. Let alone one with these specs.

    Stacks with Amex Bonus x3 Points for foreign currency spend

    • -2

      This. 👌

    • +4

      Don’t you pay a 3% fee for foreign currency on Amex? Points don’t offset that cost…

    • +3

      LOL, Amex foreign currency spend has fees attached, never use an Amex for a none-AUD transaction.

    Anyone want to go halves 4tb each?

    • +19

      just snap it like a kitkat

  • +17

    Back in 2016, I thought in 10 years time, we would be paying $299 for 100TB solid state storage. Here we are in 2026 paying $1000 for 8TB lol.

    • +2

      And in 4026 it will be $100 000 for one TB only the 1% can afford

      • +15

        That was exactly how it worked, for decades. It's only since Covid that prices have stopped dropping.

        • -8

          4 votes from 4 idiots.. let me explain.

          Storage increases year on year are NOT consistent. For eg. There are slowdowns for x years whilst for some y years will see an increase more dramatic. It's not a smooth increase. It's actually quite erratic.

          No, hard drive storage capacity has not consistently doubled every year. Historically, the areal density (bits stored per square inch) of hard drives used to double approximately every 18 months, a trend sometimes referred to as "Kryder's Law".

          Recent Years: The increase in areal density slowed during the 2010s due to physical limitations in magnetic recording technology. Manufacturers have largely increased total drive capacity by adding more platters (disks) inside the drive enclosure, rather than just increasing the density of a single platter.

          We also had a switch over from HDDs to Silicon, eg SSDs of various form factors. So 10 years ago you thought in 2026 you were gonna pay $300 for a 100TB solid state drive, that's crazy. You gotta understand what an SSD is made of, how the size scale affects those drives and the mechanics of solid state storage. Similar to how CPUs are fabbed, SSDs are also reliant on the process node - don't expect miracle leaps of storage capacities.

          • @cobknob: crazy to see all the downvotes..

          • @cobknob: those miracles of storage capacities were promised by the industry. At the time (around 2014-2015) there were 16TB drives about. It's not the consumers fault that a high capacity future hasn't eventuated for the consumer market. They switched to NVME drives and went after speed instead of capacity.
            There was also an expectation of large cost reductions with a focus on parity with HDDs
            https://www.computerworld.com/article/1638222/consumer-ssds-…

            (plenty of news reports from back then btw on the expected high capacity SSDs we'd all see).

        I’m guessing you don’t know Moore or Kryder’s Law(s)

        • -1

          Did you read my comment.. 😂

          "Kryder's Law".

          Guessing not!

          People tie Ambiguity to Moore's and Kryder's Laws. They're in fact a statement, and Moore's Law has been revised from 1 to 2 years in the 1970s I believe, and since ~2010s has drifted off. But according to the Nvidia CEO in 2022, Moore's Law is very much dead, and I agree.

          When I state something is gonna increase 2X, it doesn't mean 1.7x or 2.2x OR avg out across 5 years at 2X. Statements in maths and sciences generally have low error rates otherwise sh#$ wouldn't work in life.

    • How much it cost in 2016? But the SSD now is much faster than the SSD 10 years ago, right?

    • -2

      You expected back in 2016, in 10 years time, SSD storage would be 100 times cheaper?

      Unless work pays for it (or it is a work related expense), buying 8TB NVMe SSD is just for bragging.

  • Bought one of these for $918 from Amazon AU (shipped from Amazon UK) on the 2nd…still hasn't charged my card or shipped yet.

    • +1

      Interesting, thanks for sharing. Bought it yesterday and I posted right after my card was charged (pending) but it hasn't dispatched yet.

    • Mine was dispatched from Bavaria today, any word on yours?

  • +1

    any reason why it is so cheap?

    • +2

      I was suspicious at first but good specs, decent reviews, not cheap enough to likely be a pricing error and shipped/sold by Amazon DE.

  • Yes but it's more expensive than my laptop

  • +1

    I’ve been waiting for 8tb drives to come down around $600ish, seem like that’s still a long way off.

  • +1

    These were available for $931 on 1 Jan 2026. It included a $49 promo.

      "These"… One available. Also, why you not post it bro?

      • +1

        Low quantity, rajserp did the right thing not to give us false hope back then :)

        • Low quantity thread

  • -3

    I’d be paying $1000 for a mild inconvenience not necessity. Ps5 pro has 2 TB. I could eventually get another 2TB but I’m good for now.

  • ugh, I was thinking of getting an 8tb nvme and this is OOS, damn having a social life and going out last night lol

    • +1

      InnoGrit IG5236 doesn't exactly have a good reputation. For 8TB NVMe SSD, unless it is dirt cheap, it's best to choose a good one (since you are paying a fair bit for 8TB).

      2GB of DDR4L DRAM cache on a 8TB SSD is cost cutting (though most people probably don't know that or care). Personally, I wouldn't get this SSD, especially at this price. However, I did buy NM790 4TB when it was cheap $259 and another 4TB SSD last year for also around $259.

      • appreciate the info - will keep those things in mind :)

    • For now, back in stock.

  • Would recommend registry edit if you are on win11 and using such a drive. Was surprised to see an uplift on 3 different NVME SSDs.

  • +1

    damn…if you guys into this one I can bring it into Australia, make it to a dealer that charges low margin.

    sigh

    anyone still interested?

    • What'd be the ETA and the shipped price?

      • +8

        I will work on it on monday and bring small quantity in, they are still in shortage, but I can get distributors bring them in, that price is doable

        • Please let me know if this nvme goes back into stock!

        • Keen on an eta as well! Please and Thank you!

    • Can you bring Lexar RAM at good price? Havent seen one in amazon lately.

      • +1

        Lexar is doubling down on retail market, I will bring in lots of ram when others stop supplying.
        But price will be horrible unless it doesn't sell.
        During the upward price trend, every single order my distributor placed, the buy price will be higher than the exisiting market sell price.
        The only way to do a good price is to let distributors buy some stock and not selling for 2-3 months.
        That doesn't happen in this industry.
        I will try though, just can't promise on ozbargain.

        • You would bring more when others stop supplying?! Would they though? I don't quite get what you mean.

          I have a backorder with Amazon US (for slower Crucial kit) and am on lookout for 32GB 6000MTs CL30 kit.
          The Crucial kit is not the best but it is better than having nothing. My order hasn't been fulfilled though so it is not done deal.

          I also saw your other comment saying you may not have enough DRAM supply for this first half of 2026. Does this mean Lexar has no stock for Australia?
          I had seen Lexar Ares Gen 2 kits listed on Amazon AU previously but those were on backorder then and are no longer available. Would there be any Ares kits to be sold at Amazon AU in few weeks' time? Perhaps a deal for ozb users?

          • @racingmiku: There will be lots of brands stop supplying, for different reasons. If you didn't get what I mean now, wait for 6 months and you will understand.
            As for not have enough DRAM, that is true, no brand will have "enough" for this current market.
            Only small portion of the demand will be fulfilled, and it will keep getting worse.
            Lastly, about Amazon.

            So if you want to wait for Amazon stock, I am not sure it will get fulfilled very soon regardless the brand. Many businesses have been placing large orders to get cheap stock because Amazon reacted too slow on the price increase, currently they have thousands of backorders not fulfilled.

            We are supplying them, but they will be selling at a loss if they choose to fulfill all back order at old price, as time goes by it will only cost them all.
            But if you already have a backorder in, might as well keep your backorder and don't cancel it. if they fulfilled it that would be a major saving.

            • @Lexar ANZ Chris: Thank you for the response.

              Do you reckon it is best to buy one that is in stock or wait out? Will this upward trend persist?
              I am tempted to put another order (any brand) in Amazon to make sure I have one at least - since my order has been stuck in limbo for too long…
              Would Lexar be bringing Ares kits to Amazon AU? What is the "fair" going rate for 32GB 6000 CL30 kit now?
              Any chance there is special price for ozb mate? :)

              Yes, agree on your last point. I suspect this may be why Amazon cancelled my Corsair RAM order. I havent seen a single listing from Amazon AU for Corsair DDR5 RAM (any speed or any capacity).

              • @racingmiku: I would recommend to buy anything that is in stock, the price trend doesn't seem like stopping anytime soon, at least not this year.
                eventually retail market will be priced out significantly.
                price will be too crazy for individuals to consider.

                There will be some RAM kits coming to AU including amazon for sure, but again, it won't be enough and most likely will sell out very quickly

              • @racingmiku: How long have you been waiting for your Amazon order to come out of limbo?

                • +1

                  @ozilicious: I placed an order back on 21 Dec for Crucial 32GB kit. Only got charged today, so I am hoping it will be dispatched anytime today.

            • +1

              @Lexar ANZ Chris: Super helpful info, thanks.
              It explains why several people I know have had Amazon orders for storage stuck weeks on end with no dispatch.
