No idea. Didnt keep track. I dont use Linux.

This is one of those bad luck. Just buy MX500 if u want.

Last question , which shop did you bought from online or at the offline shop ? years of usage ? or batch/serial number ?
I would avoid the same shop or batch number with the specific firmware.Thank you

Not easy now. Price went up a lot since Nov 2023.

Surprisingly, Samsung 990 Pro price did not move.

I wonder why SSD price increase ? is it because of HBM memory shortage because many country hoarding for storage on AI ?

ssd price hike is not a big deal to most people i think. to them, ssd is just not one of their priorities. that's why we never have news about general public going panic when ssds have its price hiked.

for those who know a bit more, i believe they already have enough time to get prepared since last year hehe
*
but it's a big deal where it increase over 60%.Last year still see samsung 870 , 500GB rm160 as now rm270.
Even worst , mechanical HDD follow the trend , if HDD hike , HDD also hike.Last year still can get WD blue rm230 2TB now over rm330.

2nd hand HDD also increase ? no reason at all.

Depends on who you ask. Many still come here wondering why SSD prices so expensive like they didnt get the memo months ago, so some might want to hold purchase thinking it might drop again but hooboy its gonna go even higher again. So those holdouts buy now if still can, but you really should have bought months ago.
*
Since it going to hike , what is the cheapest solution now ? holdout or buy now ? or buy 2nd ?

if possible please read my previous reply with the right context sir.

good deals never wait. the sellers need to eat also. the price of ssds was low last year, because it's general clearance of old stocks across most brands.

for hdds, it's inflation, weak exchange rates, etc. in general. however, price of 2nd-hand hdds should not be hiked.
*
I read some online review like laz and other online selling , mostly still old stock base on production date batch upload review picture.Old stock but seller sell as new stock price.
As for HDD also the same , i doubt there are people buying HDD 1-2TB now adays.

but , if seller increase price , no buyer buying and they just wait , then how seller earn ?

Which SSD type and brand is useful for storage ? Just 1 time store , never need rewrite.Actually pendrive also can but there is no 1TB pendrive.

HDD since someone say HDD is better, so I just shared how much I just bought recently.

The seller sell pulled out system hardware stuff from new/used/refurbished stuff. So if is new pulled from system, he will listed as new pulled from system, if used pulled from system, he will listed as used pulled from system or just as used with lesser seller warranty.
shopee/lazada, seller I think from northern Penang.

Which seller really trusted on online ? It'd be hard to find a well pack and trusted seller for HDD.You know , our parcel all throw here and there.And the warranty issue like 7 days warranty.
