Is it just me, or are the SSD deals this sale barely lukewarm compared to the Diwali offers?
I’ve been tracking the WD SN850X and Kingston KC3000 (2TB) for my build, hoping to snag one for under ₹16k to use as a dedicated AI model cache.
Amazon: Selling the SN850X for the same price as last month (₹16.5kish)
Flipkart: Has the usual ‘bank offer’ gimmicks but nothing flat-out aggressive.
Has anyone spotted a genuine price drop on any high-end TLC Gen4 drive (7000MB/s+)?
I’m seeing a lot of discounts on the Crucial P3 Plus, but that QLC drive is useless for my workload (sustained writes tank to HDD speeds once the cache fills).
If anyone sees a lightning deal on a 2TB S70 Blade or FireCuda 530, please tag me!"
Yep, recently purchased a 18TB HDD for 44k from computech. They didn’t ship it for 3 days, only to tell me the price is now 51k and the difference must be paid prior to shipping. I’m planning to email pcppricetracker.in support to remove them for predatory behaviour. It’s very unreliable.
That’s a pretty bad deal when the WD SN7100 2TB could have been bought at 20k after card discount. Similarly, for the brave, there was a silicon power US75 2TB for 17k.
Either your post has typo or you are looking at a wrong description, nobody is selling high end 2TB NVMe ssd with dram for less than 30k nowadays. You should have bought during last year BBD/GIS sale itself.
You won’t be getting even 2TB P3/P3 Plus (only difference between them is interface gen 3/gen 4 as their internal hardware is same) for less than 25k.
In india corsair mp600 elite was 16k , and KIOXIA 2tb gen 4 was 17k during this sale.
If you can import it from japan or US you can get sn850 or renegade , samsung 990 pro for 18k
Also if you are ok with 24 to 25k for 2 tb gen 4 with dram primeABGB has few model, also if dram is not necessary then amazon has one or two model in 25k range gen5 model.
But excise cautious, amazon is prone to counterfeit products because of product swap and primeabgb is selling USA imported product.
Install crystaldiskinfo free software & use it to monitor health & temps of that 5TB hdd all the time. If temp exceed 50-52 for extended durations (like more than an hour or so) then you need to lower the temps of hdd else its lifetime will reduce in the long term.
Thanks mate. Will try my luck. Didnt expect HDD prices would rise too lmao.
Time to dismantle the old desktop and reprupose all unused hdds and smaller ssds.
