Hynix SSD M.2 (NVMe) 960gb $269.99 and 2TB 7200 RPM WD Blue HDD $59.95, 2TB HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 $52.95 [US]

Hey Guys,

 

Recently purchased some hard drives from a company I found on Slickdeals. Pretty happy with the purchase considering the cost per gig on the 3.5 drive. 


$269.99 - SK Hynix (NVMe) M.2 PE3110 960GB SSD

$59.95 - 2TB WD Blue 7200 RPM

 

I'm not sure how you guys feel about a used enterprise drive,  but they're also selling used

$52.95 - 2TB HGST Ultrastar 0F20620 7K4000

 

that apparently has less that 20h on it.  HGST 7K4000's I think are equivalent to WD Blacks I think, from what I understand they're built to withstand earthquakes lol.  ( don't quote me on that)

---------------

 

I also talked to chat and found that their drives come with a 30 day warranty -- so that's nice.

I forgot where I read that they only ship in the states,  but a friend from Canada said that he ordered one by talking to chat?  (I can't confirm) maybe they don't send out side of NA.

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Wow that SSD looks pretty good, it's even an enterprise drive. For that price it's a steal.

 

Too bad I'm not in the market for a new SSD :P

As far as I know, the ONLY WD Blue drives that are 7200rpm are 1TB or less.  The 2TB WD Blue and above are 5400rpm.

I thought the same as well,  but it looks like these drives came out before the recoloring happened.  They did make 2tb models,  this drive was suppose to be relabeled green, thus making it discontinued (and cheap!).  They discussed the whole thing in the comments section on slickdeals.
