Amazon usually delivers earlier than their estimate so I wouldn't worry too much about the delivery date.

    I think this is a very good deal, just some info for those unaware this is basically the SN770 with a PCIE3.0 interface.Same controller, same flash NAND chips.

    The newer SN580 was launched a few weeks back that is pretty much this with the PCIE4.0 interface. However I'd suspect it will be more expensive for a number of months. The provisioning of the SLC "cache" looks to have changed also.

    From reviews online (SN570 2TB) you'll find this to be a very decent drive for the price. If you also read them for the SN770 then cut the max sequential read and write to around 3500/3000 then you won't be far off.

    Even that drive is slow for PCIE4.0 so you really aren't missing much unless you want it for a PS5. However for daily use I expect outside of benchmarks you wouldn't really see any difference between them.

    Remember if purchasing for a gaming drive that activity is mainly reading of data. You can see numerous example videos on YouTube where PCIE 3/4/5 are compared and the loading times are within seconds of each other. Direct Storage is also compatible with PCIE3.0 so I think you'll be just fine with a drive like this for a number of years to come. (edited)

    This is a SATA SSD not PCIe.
    thelagmonster's avatar
    It's PCIe, has it in the title and all over the listing.

    Will this work in a PS5?
    CAL23's avatar
    No, it has to be Gen 4.
  4. ought's avatar
    Does it have DRAM or other fancy parts?
  5. thelagmonster's avatar
    The P3 is QLC NAND, this is TLC.

    I'd stick to this one, personally.
  6. MasterAK's avatar
    I bet if I order and wait 3-6 months for delivery 2tb SSDs will be £50 by then.
    rageruffle's avatar
    then you can cancel though...

    Literally every time I see these on HUKD, I automatically think they are pregnancy tests.
  8. littlecoupe's avatar
    I'm scared to order after the last ordeal. Seal package came with an empty ssd box!
    Smm0's avatar
    Yeah yeah that old chest nut. Times are hard but come on man.. that's stealing.

    Wow
  10. Kinio's avatar
    Thanks ordered 8 for storage pool
    Pete_Washer's avatar
    What are you putting them into? I am quite tempted by one of these asustor flash things - might save on electric vs my old spinning disk arrays!

    People banging on about DRAM as though they are working in Hollywood editing blockbuster movies
    simonwhiteuk's avatar
    I thought the H in HUKD stood for Hollywood.

    Decent deal, unless you get an empty box
  13. noiren's avatar
    I need more M.2 slots, to the point now that I'm running my graphics card to x8 lanes because I've populated every PCI slot with M.2 drives
  14. dumplingwrestler's avatar
    Is there any easy way/cheap enclosure that can be used to raid 2 or 3 of these together (on a Mac)?
    sirkenyard's avatar
    Cost of an enclosure prob not the difference in 2 of these vs 1x 4tb. But I would like to know also for future and if doing the same with 4tb ones. (edited)

    Is this compatible with the below. And is it the same speed. Anybody have any advice to upgrade the stock nvme in the below SFF PC?
    Is there a similar sold by Amazon?

    SFF PC Link
    I believ this SFF PC uses a 512 Crucial PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe SSD Drive. The drive on this post shows as a gen 3 x4. I wonder will it make a difference between the gen 4 in the pc and this gen 3?

    This one looks to be interesting too Link Here (edited)
    James_Harking's avatar
    Yes, I was looking at that one too, but unlike the A80 it doesn't have any DRAM. So you are looking at something like this but using a PCIE 4.0 interface for £10 more and arguably a less known/reliable brand as Western Digital. But saying that I think it is a decent enough drive.

    Delivery between September and January!!!
  17. Scotty.Boy's avatar
    Tempted to buy as a cheap upgrade for a Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 5 ThinkPad - unfortunately money is tight, so it might just do the trick.
  18. gabesdad's avatar
    Can never remember if this is a case where Amazon would charge in advance or on dispatch? Have a stack of SSD's I've bought recently for various things, but one can never have enough storage
  19. MrBeginner's avatar
    Is this Dramless?
  20. Godspeed's avatar
    Just out of interest what would be the recommendation/personal experience for a heavy writing drive? (video editing etc)
  21. timz's avatar
    Has this sold out?
  22. a4pacific's avatar
    This is used, not brand new.
  23. dudtwo's avatar
    Anybody got a good deal on a 2TB SATA M.2 drive? My motherboard won't support NVME but only SATA drives in it's second slot. (edited)

    Just managed to buy one at £64.71, from Amazon UK as the seller, but it's showing a delivery ETA for September through to January - hopefully it will be faster than that. (edited)
