Was going to jump on this, but I get charged tax in IL.

Is the tax really that much to not justify the price? I mean this seems like a good deal when elsewhere these are going for $150+. I am just not too sure about the B stock thing and what that signifies in terms of a SSD.

I dont need a fking SSD... but Ive always wanted a m.2 just to say i've used one. So tempting... must resist

this sells for like 120-135 everywhere else. I'd considering this a pretty decent damn deal

Faster than Sata, and for 78 after shipping tax its better than even the cheapest Sata 250gb drives. I bought one just because. I know its not the 950 pro its basically the OEM 950evo that they never hit retail with but it looks decent.

Samsung Magician doesn't work on these drives, correct?

In for two. Too bad we can only buy one at a time, so we get hit twice for shipping.

Not a bad deal if you need one but do note that these aren't the SM951 which have a higher read/write.

MZVPV256HDGL (SM951)
MZVLV256HCHP (PM951)

Correct it is the TLC mem version so it is pretty much an evo vs pro situation

And these are OEM only...and B-stock is code word for "returned" (why ? who knows...)

Last I heard, CDW was authorized to reconfigure certain OEM's machines prior to sale. It could indicate that an enterprise client wanted a different configuration, and that it could still be new/like new.

Could be.....but either way you won't be getting support from Samsung on these.

That CDW speak for OOS? And do these come with *any* level of warranty from anyone?

Yeah so CDW decided to take 3 days to process my order and just called me saying it is no longer in stock thanks CDW, pretty terrible service. I believe i ordered it about 20 minutes after this post.
