imo a good timing depends on the answer to the question, 'do i need it?'

answer " no "
i dont need it
but just buy it > <
gg

hehe nevermind sometimes i have the same urge too. now i am hoping for intel 905p lol do i need it? hell no

Haha
My one 760p 5 years warranty

haha nice. for ssds that have 64-layer 3d nand flash they can offer this already. on paper they're durable af lol

i think not nvme ssd i cant utilize it
but just wanna test the new nvme tech
since long time ago

yeah it's good to have one; they are relatively faster, depending on what you do with it

however if you used it just for normal usage, it's a waste actually

want to ask,
saw kingston a400 480gb sold for myr 378 only,
is it a good buy?

Haha ya i also feel it is waste

Wow 378 for 480gb

Bought this ssd from China, price is much cheaper compared with our local pricing but of course need to compromise the warranty part which might be hassles if something happened.

May I know how much you got it for? TQ

Around RM800 after converted to our currency.

nice

i think you don't need to worry about warranty. i use a lot of their oem and retail drives from various sources for many years already. (5+ years; mostly mlc drives) none of them have issues so far.

Yeah, i also think like that, Samsung drive should be very reliable, that's why i really didn't think much and just buy.

haha sweet. maybe later i will get one also lol

Great! .By the way this is first time i'm using nvme ssd, previously all were sata. The temperature really quite hot eventhough i have installed the heatsink but it still reached around 46 degree, can't imagine if without heatsink , is it normal for nvme ssd?

yes normally it's hot without heat sink. i use an adapter with passive heat sink for me also haha (about 35c idle, 45c under loads)

it really depends on usage. for general use, the temperature of ssd is still below 70c.

for game files and applications, large capacity sata ssds are still good.

I used it for system drive only, then i shouldn't be worried so such about the temp. Thanks bro for sharing the info

yeah it should be all good with a passive heat sink

i should probably settle with a 500gb also. currently my os drive has a lot of space. (only occupy 30+ gb in total, OP at 20%)
