I feel really rich for having 3 of the same thing, even though this was only $90, and I’m only getting to keep one... also, amazon one day shipping on prime, I’m so lucky

    Ahhh the day has come when 240gb SSDs seem small for what's available. Glorious.

    theyre fine, I've had a lot of them survive a lot of things... They aren't the fastest, or the longest lasting, but they sure as hell are the cheapest, and they work fine.

    Yeah, I was *this* close to buying 500 gig drives, but I really don't need more space on the boot drive, and I need at least 750 gigs for it to be the only drive, so it didn't make sense to me.

    I'd have picked up a 1TB for sure. Or just a 500GB for the increased speeds, as well as lower wear over time.

    @dizmo I really don’t plan on keeping it all that long, plus I wrote like <20 TB on my last ssd in 3 years. I still sort of wish I got a better drive, but if I end up deciding to go that route soon it’s not big deal to swap out, after all there is always a use for another SSD

    That’s pretty good, these were $30 each on amazon. I also ordered a 120 gig for $16 for the lol

    @CUDAcores89 Yeah, the lower price is likely from bulk purchasing. I imagine 500GB drives are in much higher demand than the 1TB, so they get better pricing on them. I'd still take the larger single drive personally, as reducing the number of things to go wrong is usually a smarter course.

     

    @RGProductions Haha, yeah. I've written about that to my tiny Samsung drive on my laptop. Hasn't died yet, but I'm definitely replacing the laptop.
