Hey guys Massdrop has a 500g 850 evo ssd going for $159.00; $176.00 including shipping and taxes.
Right now Amazon has the same ssd going for $176.00, $191.00 with taxes and shipping included.
This is a good deal right? I'm debating weather I pull the trigger on this, any thoughts?

you can get 2tb Harddisk for much cheaper.

I know, the whole point here is to by an SSD for superior/faster storage
>>61285649
God DAMN, and I'm so poor right now

Just buy a flash drive and install linux on it.

Yeah that's why I just replied with the obvious advantages of lower storage ssd vs. higher storage hdd.
I would think that ends that argument, what can he say? Longer boot times are better for time management?

Should I also throw out my PC and buy an Ipad?

Do you want to wait 6 weeks for your ssd?
>>61285649
The HD 6xx are a better deal desu.
But if you need an SSD and don't need it delivered in the next few days, you'll save ~$20.
If you need it today though you could order one from amazon and have it at your door tonight, or monday (depends where the closest amazon warehouse is to you)

It's only $5 more on newegg right now and you'll get it within the week instead of waiting 2-3 weeks from massdrop.
Do you want to deal with massdrop in case you get a faulty device? They probably can't send you a new one. I would spend a few more HKD and get the SSD from a different retailer. You probably won't miss those dollars in two months when the one from massdrop should be arriving.

FTFY
You're retarded if you're actually storing things on a SSD, they're meant to speed up your OS and software not data hoarding. Unless you're doing video editing/graphics and require a lot of "work space" you're literally wasting your money.
>>61288335
Oh shut up you troll.
SSDs are better. They are a million times faster and last a million times longer.

They'd have to pay me
>>61288335
That is what I meant. Are you the retard? Why would some one want fast storage if its just sitting there?
Its implied I'm using it to run apps/games and recording game footage and editing it on some budget video editor to get 20 views on youtube. I have a 4 terabyte hdd waiting to be installed when I run out on my active one.

Absolutely, anything you can do on a PC you can do better on an iPad Pro
