    This might give you an idea of prices. I tend to buy my SSD's from them.

    SSD, mSATA, 3D Scanners, Compact Flash, SDHC, SD, USB Drives and more | My Digital Discount

    I guess you are talking about a normal SATA 7mm 2.5 inch drive

    Buy Samsung 1TB 2.5" SSD 850 Evo Series (MZ-75E1T0BW) - invadeit.co.th

    I have used invadeit for multiple bits over the years - even a laptop - and have found it to be worth a small premium to get the service and device I wanted
    If you torture data for enough time , you can get it to say what you want.

    and the fornt page has adds for M.2 sata 6 Gbs SSDs ?

    what the fcuk is that supposed to mean

    M.2 is connected to the PCIe bus and has the bandwidth ( expecially if 8 path ) to way outperform SATA

    a proper SSD with a real M.2 correctly setup makes the CPU the bottleneck

    Yeah, I use them a lot. Fast service and the owner (Swedish I think) and staff are pretty knowledgeable. They can also get more unusual items (e.g. specialist graphics cards, etc) which aren't listed on the website

    I am also interested in a SSD hard disk, but
    whaw, expensive,...
    but do I need 1 TB?
    Can't I just put only my OS on a small SSD Hard disk,
    and all the rest on a normal Hard disk?

    no - a 250 gig is where the sweetspot is at the moment - though 500 gig is getting there

    just keep a portable USB3 2TB drive to keep most of your goat porn on

    And that is a bad thing how? This is why we overclock and take advantage of water cooling. I will not be building a new box until Broadwell-E is released and by then I highly doubt that my new 6-10 core beast will be bottlenecked at all.

    - I said "This might give you an idea of prices".
    - I don't live in Thailand so yes I can ship them to my front door here in the sandpit.
    - "Also seen as 12Gb/s, 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s. The Gb/s stands for Gigabits per second. This is the throughput speed the SAS 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0 specs have. 12G = 4800MB/s, 6G = 2400MB/s and 3G = 1200MB/s. These speeds are theoretical and real world results are often less depending on which controller card, sas expander, drives and raid level are used."

    Now stop trying to be a smartarse, there's a good boy.

    He was asking how much 1TB's cost.

    my dear cut and paste possum

    I was pointing out that deceptive advertising practices on the front page of the website did not instil in me much confidence

    and if you can see over your sneering upper lip you will notice that I did answer his question

    his SSD question has reminded me that I was looking at M.2 drives to go in a mini ATX build , so thus I was also starting conversation about them

    considering many of our members do not realise there are very fast SSD drives which have only been released in recent months and are not much more expensive than 2.5 inch drives I thought it would also be helpful to some to enlighten them on what was available

    in conclusion - get fcuked harry

    What's deceptive?

    They list all the specs in detail.

    Just because you can't be arsed to read them before you go off on one is not their problem, is it?

    in conclusion - get fcuked harry

    sweet spot got to be 500
    my 250 SSD is too small, always juggling stuff about on it
    but the short term solution:

    no more tightening my belt !

    PNY Turbo 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive Model P-FD256TBOP-GE




    £50
    for an extra 256 GB ( ok 238-- don't know what happened to the other 12 GB but still, its massive , last one i had was 32gb.
    only weighs 18 grams
    I run my torrents and SACD music of it
    leaving my main SSD free to house all my stolen software programs

    MAXIMUM USB 3.0 PERFORMANCE
    The PNY Turbo USB 3.0 Flash Drive (256GB model) features transfer speeds up to 10 times faster than standard USB 2.0 flash drives. It reads as fast as 185MBps and writes up to 135MBps for lighting-fast transfer of large files, such as movies and videos, in no time. This USB 3.0 interface is also backward compatible with older versions.

    I have a 128 half size mPCIe with my 2 OS's on and programs and a 2.5 inch 250 with the movies and docs and sh1t

    I just reasonable regularly move the big stuff off to a 2 TB USB3

    unless you want to spend the money a 250 is big enough - especially if you are on a desktop

    It's right next to Phra Ram 9 station on the MRT.

    Also, there is a specialist Ukulele shop in there for all your Ukulele needs.

    I've always found that fascinating. It must be the Ukulele epicentre of Bangkok.

    Four floors, too.
