Title: Buying SSD 250GB or bigger
Post by: antonioserrano72 on April 05, 2015, 01:32:52 PM
Im buying a few SSDs that are 250GB or bigger.

Preferrably less than 2 years old. I like Samsung/Crucial/Corsair/Mushkin drives, but will consder others too.

250GB is minimum im looking for but I really prefer 500GB drives.

looking for best price

drive must be in working condition, used is fine, as long as it works and is expected to keep working without problems in foreseeable future.

Just FYI, used SSD's are on a downward spiral.
They have a limited life expectancy and older models have issues if they were used at 80% or more capacity and not properly 'realigned' every  year at least once after.
IMO not worth it.
New ones are cheap enough to buy. Much better off.

I have a 1tb samsung ssd

 test scores below   all ratings are 97% or better


these are used prices for it.

So since I am asking for  a btc payment offer me less then 300 free ship to usa.

 Typical prices used at amazon are 330 usd and up and I doubt the drives they offer are as new as mine.
