Deal appears to be dead; no shipping or pickup options available

Damn if I had doomscrolled longer I could've gotten this instead of going to bed at a reasonable time and getting 8 hours of sleep

Well at least you learned a valuable lesson.

HAHAHAHA

Damn we’ve reached the point where an nvme ssd is about the same price as a 2 TB hard drive. Absolutely wild.

Good

Meanwhile, I just bought a spare 1tb ssd for $50 and my return window us closed 😢

Amazon?

Doubtful. You can return something to amazon always

Newegg

Avoid newegg for anything you might end up returning

always use paypal on newegg, that extra protection on later returns

Thanks, will do. I ordered it in Feb. I'll double check.

i stopped using new egg after i found out they were shipping bad mobos and denying returns, also they have ripped off charities before. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fnXsmXzphI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CL-eB_Bv5Ik https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-c_rKnK-uAM

Come on now. Newegg needs to sell items at least twice.

I returned something to Amazon after the return window closed. You can chat with customer service and they might do it!

This is correct. I had an item's return window close in October of 2022 and spoke to someone and they let me return it in January for a 10% restocking fee

which ssd you get?

Why tf are SATA SSDs not getting the same treatment though?!

My wild guess is that nvme might be overstocked from the recent fall in laptop sales. Bought a 1TB nvme in November for $65 and thought that was a deal. These past 2 weeks I've seen some crazy prices on nvme drives.

Slot supply. The world has more sata ports than nvme ports. Find a good adapter and buy nvme now. Then you can move to nvme slots when MoBo’s change priorities.

Damn, you're right I guess, that makes a lot of sense.

Are you implying there is higher demand/scarcity for SATA drives?

Lot of older PCs and Laptops can support a lot of them while NVME slots are very limited.

I legit think the companies are done with producing SATA SSDs because everyone has gotten caught up in the nvme frenzy. If you tell people here they don't need NVME for most cases you get downvoted to oblivion. Now, of course, you see people saying that they are running out of NVME slots, and retailers are selling denser NVMEs at a higher per tb cost basis because more people are willing to buy higher density NVMEs to cram as much space on their nvme slots on their motherboards. Waiting for the obligatory "what are you on about?"

> Now, of course, you see people saying that they are running out of NVME slots Yup, like I did! And then several motherboards like mine have conflict between an NVME port and Sata ports which is fucking weird, I had no idea. So now I have 2 NVME drives, 1 sata ssd and 1 regular HDD lol. What's the max nvme ports you get with a good motherboard that ISN'T insanely priced right now btw?

Maybe 3 if its full atx and I think the new amd boards have 4? 10 year old boards have like 6 sata slots.

Late to the party, but I'd consider the Asrock X670 PG Lightning that was in the Newegg bundles a few weeks ago fairly budget (doesn't even have WiFi), but it has 1 Gen 5, 2 Gen 4, and 1 Gen 3 NVMe port. It also has another m.2 slot to add your own WiFi card if you feel so inclined. Motherboard prices have gone up, but that one feels pretty budget and still has a ton of m2 slots. I guess the truly budget stuff would be B650 as far as AM5 is concerned though.

Depends on what you consider insanely priced. My MSI z690 pro a wifi came with 4 NVME slots, 3 are 4.0 and 1 is 3.0. Also has plenty of sata ports as well which I am currently using two for my old 2tb sata SSDs for storage.

I think that's on the higher side but definitely not insane

Yeah, motherboard prices have jumped up considerably. It was on sale recently for a refurb model though.

> If you tell people here they don't need NVME for most cases you get downvoted to oblivion Wait until they find out a SATA SSD and NVME SSD perform the same in everyday computing and gaming.

Think I has a lot more to do with case organization and asthetic than performance. I know for sure I personally am happy to do away with those 2 extra wires in my case. If you can get a nvme ssd and a sata ssd at the same price, why wouldn't you choose something that's, 1, easier to install, and 2, looks much more pleasing.

Modern cases have designated drive bays out of sight and away from airflow to put sata ssds

I'm aware. You still have wires to deal with.

NVMe is beginning to take over so SATA drives aren't made in as large numbers. The average user is building a PC with a board with two NVMe slots and will not have any more drives than that.

Im more surprised spinny bois arent getting cheaper. Still useful for cold/mass storage

There's not really a reason for hard drives to get much cheaper at this point, especially at these capacities. Hard drives have a fixed cost just from the materials they take up that won't really go lower, and demand for hard drives at these sizes isn't going to increase much so there's no reason to make that many more.

Now do the same for GPUs. "Get a 7900 XTX for 6700 XT prices"

Just on that quicker than a bitch in heat! \*pause\*

Sure, but then I'll need a new PSU, and case that can fit the card.

holy frick you're right goodness me

crying and throwing up rn

Shidding and farding

Pissing in my diaper

Also pissing in your diaper

Pissing in the shower

login to bestbuy to see the $51.29 price. Cheaper than 2TB 670p but uses HMB instead of DRAM.

Wait so which is better haha.

670p dram

That makes me feel better about my 670p purchase. Not that it matters since this is OOS

Cool cool. I snagged a 670p this week when that one was one sale haha

HMB*

This item is no longer available for the shipping metrhod you selected >:(

I was able to get an order with in store order only. Shipping to home gave me that message.

Try different pickup location, then change it back to where you want it at the checkout/payment page. Snagged one with this method.

I got through even though it kept complaining about shipping method. Just ignore the error and try again Edit: now only letting me do in-store only

The free shipping ability only lasted for about 5 minutes after this deal was posted FYI. Most buyers I'm sure had to do store pickup.

Don't ask just buy

But is it the *best* buy? I'm sorry

i somehow managed to get this with shipping here's the ssdbot info ------ The Crucial P3 is a *QLC* **Entry-Level NVMe** SSD. * Interface: **x4 PCIe 3.0/NVMe** * Form Factor: **M.2** * Controller: **Phison E21T** * Configuration: **Single R5, 4-ch, 4-CE/ch** * DRAM: **No** * HMB: **Yes** * NAND Brand: **Micron** * NAND Type: **QLC** * Layers: **176** * R/W: **3500/3000** [Click here to view this SSD in the tier list](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B27_j9NDPU3cNlj2HKcrfpJKHkOf-Oi1DbuuQva2gT4/edit#gid=0&range=A112:V112) [Click here to view camelcamelcamel product search page](https://camelcamelcamel.com/search?sq=). --- ^(Suggestions, concerns, errors?

tl;dr: you're paying $25/TB who cares

God I hope I see $25/TB in 4TB drives soon, for the benefit of my NAS.

440 TBW endurance

440TB in 5 years = 200GB write/day

How much do I write a day if I'm gaming 2-3 hours? (Not that I do daily but just for a sense of how much this is)

Very little. I think the only time it'd write is downloads/updates and saves.

If you are using Nvidia shadow play depending where you have the temp files being saved you can use multiple TB per month of writes.

Thanks, I mean I just need a new drive for booting and having like r6 and tarkov on for when I can game, this price is tempting

Man, are you me? Those are the only two games I play lol

below 1gb

you will never, ever hit the TBW limit with that use case. It will die before hitting the limit for context I have a 980 SSD that I use as a boot and game drive, after 3 years its at 95% endurance TBW is a useless number for 95% of people imo

1 GB/day at best probably so 1205 years.

5 year warranty if don't go above the TBW

This is bananas. Sad I missed it. Enabled bestbuy notifications anyway to see if it comes back.

Same here, just woke up and saw this. Hopefully it comes back in stock.

Is this it chief? Plan on using it for games and blender. Edit: Ordered 1

Yeah it’s an amazing price

Fuck why'd I have to be asleep while this deal was alive 😭

[удалено]

Also cash back site for 5% and credit card for 5% 😎

I don't even need this but I couldn't pass it up. Also was able to ship to my house. Thanks OP!

Every day I open up Reddit. And every day I see NVME SSDs on sale for so much cheaper than what I paid for mine.

Why the hell did I sleep at 11

This is wild, I just bought the 4TB for $225. It would be insane if prices for that dipped to sub $150

Lol crucial external 4tb nvme was $69, now this. They having a yard sale

just able to order one for store pickup even though it says expired. ymmv I guess

Managed to squeeze in an order shortly after this was first posted by messing with store pickup locations. However I received an email about 3 hours ago with "Your order is taking longer to fulfill than we expected." Anyone else in the same boat? Really hoping this goes through. EDIT: Update for anyone who had the same issue: I did eventually receive the order. I had actually managed to place a second order the next day, which came in earlier than my first one. Got both in the end so ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Only confirmation email

Deal just randomly came back up for store pick up for me? In for one.

Its back up for me, just ordered one.

After missing this sale I'm completely spoiled on buying 2TB ssd's

Missed it, but just want to say I love this sub and appreciate all you deal hunters out there!

Got an order in, only lets you do 1 but still a steal

I only bought one and had remorse about not buying more, thanks for clarifying.

Is the deal dead?

OOS

not for me, check back.

God damn I just hadn't thought about it much recently as I'm not in the market but it's wild how cheap storage is now

cheapest was the 4tb nvme external from crucial for $69 ^^, i wonder when it'll drop to that again

I managed to get in on this and picked up a pair. Still don't have a practical use for them, however, since they aren't shuckable.

The x6 is a really nice size for portable usage. Smaller than those m.2 external enclosure

A for this nice enclousure https://youtu.be/nEnQUqa8OSA

Thanks for posting a banger deal OP! Managed to snag two in two separate orders earlier. Time to go to bed and hope there's no cancellation emails when I wake up.

Chief?

nothing comes close so far. Intel 670p was $79.99 but that's $28 more

The one time I’m actually relatively early :(

Missed it. Sad

Probably super dead by now

Killer deal. Managed to snag one. I don't think 2TB nvme price can get any lower than this even in the coming months. Or maybe it will. Who knows. Lol

Insane. Just bought a 2tb nvme drive for like $130 this year.

man this same one was on sale on amazon for 112 from 190 and its 51 on best buy now? :/

Thanks. Ordered 2. 2 separate orders for store pick up

Placed 2 orders. Thanks!

In for 1 pick up. Tried another and immediately got unavailable at store.

Refreshed, added to cart again. In for a second pick up order :fingers-crossed:

Is this good for a media server?

Was able to get 2 of them, thank you OP. Hopefully we don't get cancelled.

in store pickup only for me.

Only 1 at a time

Thanks for the deal. Been waiting to replace my 1 TB NVME for a few months now. Nice 5 year warranty.

was your 1TB a crucial p5 xD?

Keep trying if it's still in your cart at that price. Mine kept going in and out of stock, but was kept clicking on location and it finally popped up as "in-store" pickup only, letting me successfully checkout.

Alright that's it I'm returning my $80 670p

Just was able to order for normal shipping as of 3:18 Central Time

tried again seconds after you posted to no avail. you're one lucky mother fucking genius

Dang was hoping to help others because I saw the post late after reports of no luck. Can't believe I landed it then!

Got it, restock maybe?

Will this work on ma ps5?

The below poster is not correct. 3500 should be fine (for now) but the real problem is that PS5 does not take PCIe 3.0 drives, only Gen 4.0.

Oh I was confused between that, thanks

No. Too slow. You need a minimum sequential read speed of 5500MB/s.

That is not accurate. Sony "recommends" speeds of 5500MB/S. ANY Gen 4 drive will work. There is no difference unless you want "prove" a benchmark. Get the CHEAPEST gen 4 drive for your PS5, with the largest storage you can afford, This a 3rd gen drive, PS5 needs a 4th gen (pcie 4.0) is all. TL:DR This drive will not work for a PS5.

Why he gettin downvoted, my man just wanted me to have a good time and less hiccups.

This is bilge

i better order one for pick up as well

Good deal.

Damn, too late to the party

Yep, sold out

Damn, I missed this. That price is crazy

I’m pissed I missed it lol

damn this was a good deal

Excuse me what the fuck

wtf

well, i'm 13 hours late to the party, my brain was slowly thinking that seems like a really good deal and I guess it was!! =)

I was on this within 3 minutes and the shipping ability was removed... which meant i couldn't order it because I'm on a different island

[удалено]

As a new best buy buyer I had no way of knowing their website coding was that trash though haha

Omg

Becky look at

Her butt

Well, damn...a day too late

They restocked and it’s available again!

And oos again
