No deal here…
the Samsung 850 Pro 512Gb is currently $258 @ the mothership.

It is HUGELY faster - like 2x + in every benchmark!
Based on 69,543 user benchmarks for the Intel 320 Series and the Samsung 850 Pro, we rank them both on effective speed and value for money against the best 1,059 SSDs.
You would be better off with the Samsung by far, this only has a relatively tiny capacity volume over the Sammy.
For $100, maybe $125 this MIGHT be a deal… @ $250 NO WAI!
And only 90 day warranty. Absolutely not a deal.

Yep, the 850 EVO is even cheaper- got one in mSATA 500GB for $200 the other day. Has free data migration too.
Ya even new this wouldn’t be a good deal.

Yeah and the Samsung Pro has a 10-YEAR(!!) warranty. 90 days? Trusting your data to a drive with a 90-day warranty - you have to be on something to make that call.

For just $350 you can get a 1gb EVO 850. The intel drives are good, but this isn’t a good deal.

Where is the 1tb for 350?
Thanks, Paul.

Aw man, now I want that Samsung. I wonder how easy it is to migrate from a RAID0?
Ignore the price, the word “refurbished” on a SSD… ummmm no.
Meh SATA II…much better deals out there.

Yeah, “refurbished”? Must not be done carefully, as my new Intel 480 GB SSD has a 5-year warranty. Looks like a dump sale…
