Samsung SSD Deals & Offers

Faulty cards are almost always through 3rd part sellers, Make sure the order is fulfilled by Amazon and the likelihood you will have a dodgy card will be very low.

Agreed you have to be careful with 3rd party sellers on Amazon. However I've never had a problem with any SD cards sold by Amazon direct and I've bought 13 cards over the years, SD cards have always been legit when fulfilled by Amazon direct. I test the cards using the H2testw windows software and its easy to return if the card is fake.

There is an idea if it is also sold by 3rd parties their stock gets mixed with amazon stock. So if the 3rd party has counterfeit... Ah never thought to check serial numbers.

I never buy from Amazon anymore, unless it's SOLD BY and DISPATCHED by Amazon. Their customer service for Amazon Marketplace order problems is even weaker than eBay's (who also widely sell counterfeit items and do little/nothing to about it even with supplied with the evidence/report from the manufacturer as it hits their bottom line ultimately).

How does this reach 500 degrees of heat with quite a few of the reviews advising these are fake or faulty cards ?

It's a waste of money. Every latest nvme provides up to 3k mbps data transfer. That speed is itself insane and beyond use. You. An buy a 2TB drive for £30 extra.

Would spend the extra 5 quid to get the SN850 if you want the maximum SSD performance available currently. Source: thepcenthusiast.com/review-samsung-980-pro-2tb-vs-wd-black-sn850-2tb/ (expect a larger performance gap as SN850 1TB advertises a 300MBps additional Seq Write, whereas 2TB versions have no difference) For a PS5, both drives would are overkill (but there's no significantly cheaper 1TB PS5-compatible SSD apart from the SN750 SE, which is a risky buy) Note: A heatsink is required for the SN850, the 980 Pro has great thermals without one

this work with nvidia shield 2019?

So please I asked. Mum is really ill and I mask her when health carers visit. The masks I use are currently £10 each at Screwfix but were around £3 on Amazon under the same arrangement there as above. Definitely now not buying them from Amazon now, direct from them or not.

Not personal but came across several discussions like this in the past: https://www.reddit.com/r/YouShouldKnow/comments/ifytxk/ysk_that_amazon_has_a_serious_problem_with/

You have personal/insider knowledge?

As far as I know the physical separation isn't sufficient so occasional mixing of stocks on the conveyor belt and buckets do happen, there are cases of people buying Sold and Dispatched by Amazon and still getting counterfeit items, i.e. just this (though I would hope they're quite rare)
