Make sure you update that FW to the latest version before using it.

Crucial MX500 1tb 2.5'' is $51.99 via prime too.

Now that's actually a deal

Are the 2.5" drives having issues too? The 870 Evo has been out forever.

I wish that the prices on the 4TB in general would come down more, or at least the 2TB models. However this will certainly make SSD's cheap for people wanting an inexpensive game drive or extra drive to just slap into something.

This is where I first learned of the issues. https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...ware-certain-batches-prone-to-failure.291504/

Personally, I would avoid any Samsung at this point. I feel their quality has slipped a bit.

It seems like not long ago that was the sale price for the 512GB version of that drive. Really good deal and one I heartily recommend.

Back in the day, Crucial was my go to SSD. Never had an issue with them.

I'm debating Samsung 870 EVO 1TB @ $60 vs PNY CS900 2TB @ $80 & PNY is winning!​

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08GB8S6R3/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&th=1

My question is - do SSD's come with mounting screws?
I don't think my previous 870 EVO's came with screws...

I added 2 x 6TB WD BLACK spinners (retail boxed) & they came with screws.

I'm planning to dual boot - gamer HD / OS vs work HD / OS
My case has a mounting bracket for 2 SSD's but I have no extra screws.
*All my old PC parts are in storage in another state.

Are mounting screws the same for 2.5 SSD & 3.5 spinners?

If so - what size screws? I don't want to buy a $10 PC screw box.

EDIT: I found my answer - they don't come w/ screws... I'm ordering the PNY!
