I see your point. However, if the hardware was an unknown quantity, I’d agree with you fully. But at a heavily discounted price and with the the fact that BiWin is also using the same product/hardware in other trusted more known/expensive brands via Sabrent etc, I’d be comfortable taking a punt...

Meh. I happens all the time. Power Supplies for example made by Superflower/FSP/Seasonic for EVGA, Corsair etc/ AIO coolers made by Asetek/CoolIT for Corsair, NZXT, Fractal etc. There are only a few original manufacturers, yet the quality/value can still be great if made by a good company. If...

Pretty much. At least, I think anyway.

Specs

Yeah, it seems to be better for the price now. Against the WD SN850X and Samsung drives at $250, its value seemed off to me given the competition in that price bracket. I think it'd make a good drive for a lower price, not the best, but very practical.

As the title says. Looks good for the capacity. Specs seem ok too.

Not upgrading the my 4090 for the foreseeable future. I tend to upgrade when I feel an actual need. For instance, I was happily running things on my old Dell 1600p @ 60hz with my 3080 FE. Then bought a 4k 120hz LG OLED TV as a monitor. GPU needed a bump, hence a 4090. I tend to find that an...

Hopefully! It was the lowest its been in a while, at least on amazon.

Looks like they are sold out most places.

Makes sense. I was getting tired of having to delete games from the drive all the time. An annoyance more than anything. I stopped myself from picking up the 990 Pro 4TB simply because of the price of this WD again. Other than that, nothing much in it. The only thing I can think of is that...

Same deal as last year I believe. Bought another one and going to move the 2TB 990 Pro Sammy I have to the PS5. Nooice.

First "GPU" I ever bought, the GeForce 256. Around the time of my first personal build. Jammed it in a ready built Gateway 2000 PC with a AMD Athlon K7. Loved it. Wish I'd kept it. Next would definitely be the ATI 9700 Pro. The mad box-art needs to come back!!

I wouldn't want satan behind me =p

yup that's the one. It's going for 345 right now. I prefer to buy storage brand new, but thanks for the reddit offer though. Appreciate it.

Yup, that was a very good deal also. Can't go wrong with either drives. Good stuff. Now I just need the 8TB Samsung sata ssd to go lower =)
