Great !
Now it needs to drop to 150 euro or less.
At that 240 eur price it's even more expensive than some 2TB NVMe drives
... what a joke !

Good to see more 2tb drives but on 12 cents a gb is highly priced to fit anywhere really.

My first ever SSD was a Sandisk X400 1TB. Bought it nearly 3 years ago to put into my i7980. I have since repurposed as a "portable" game drive in a USB 3.1 enclosure and it only lost a small amount of speed in the sequential write. I'd buy one of these when the price comes down.

Sandisk 2TB = 307£
Crucial 2TB = 224£
That is a big enough difference for me to ask "Is it worth the extra money?" And, I think the answer is going to be "no".

I don't use Amazon, I just go straight to the official store every-time. I might pay more (not that I would ever know) BUT I am a very firm believer that the official store is the best place, as, Amazon does not need to exist.

Who the bloody hell buys from the "official shop" ???
I never heard anyone in my circle ever ordering something from the "official", unless that is the ONLY location where a product exists.
And that "official" price is always (much) bigger than what retailers offer.
One needs to be seriously deranged in their mind to pay 300 pounds for something that can be had otherwise for 40% less.
But hey, it's not my money. Waste it to your heart's desire.

Problem is, when I bought from corsair, postage was from Taiwan, and 1 week+ was in way after 2 days from order....Amazon sends it in 2 days, 2 days after I have item. And price was the same as from Amazon...

I'm buying stuff where it's the cheapest, has the best/easiest return policies and all things being equal, from where it comes the quickest. Samsung, Sandisk, amazon (etc)... ...none of these companies are your friends. We are their consumers, nothing more.
As to this drive, I'm done buying expensive, premium 2.5" SSDs when the average NVME drives annihilate them in nearly every metric and for less money. Bought 3 so far and I'm not looking back. :P
