abarbarian Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 The price of ssd/nvme's at the moment is insanely cheap. I am building a new pc for me sister and have donated my old nvme to the build as it is almost worthless and not worth the bother selling on. As I am donating my old single slot dock aswell I thought I would buy her a cheap ssd for backups or storage. I could have bought a 240 GB at EBuyer for £17 plus postage. Where I could have bought a 250 GB nvme for £19 plus postage. https://www.ebuyer.com/store/Storage/cat/Hard-Drive---SSD?sort=price+ascending Being from Yorkshire and careful with my loot I took a quick look at E-Bay here in the UK. I found a refurbished 120 GB for £7 inc postage so bought two for her as they were cheaper than the Ebuyer prices. Every penny counts as they say. Here for information are a selection from E-Bay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256184755503?hash=item3ba5cd252f:g:kHoAAOSwUitk~uzd&var=556211455937 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/314849817120?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110025%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.COMPOSITELISTINGS%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20220405142716%26meid%3Deb9f501176a846cc91dc9021d7902f88%26pid%3D101506%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D25%26sd%3D314849811845%26itm%3D314849817120%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D3458402%26algv%3DAlgoIndex5SimRanker%26brand%3DSamsung&_trksid=p3458402.c101506.m1851 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175928941022?epid=17039224762&hash=item28f62e99de:g:RbUAAOSwjjplFepq There was even a buy two get one free for 120 GB M2 cards. I recon the refurbished ones should be ok as ssd's have a very long life span. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
