like samsung 860 for under 300 kn
I'd like a better NVME than the Samsung 970..
Something that hits 500 Mb/s or better 4k reads... And at least 300 Mb/s writes is just fine.
I'd like it in 1tb size with a great looking fantastic functioning heat spreader.
I'd be willing to pay $250 for that.

I've got a new 12-bay enclosure to fill up. I'm hoping to start filling it with some 6TB drives if I can find some good deals.

Would you consider chucking in a second 6TB for raid0? It ought to perform better than any single 12TB drive.I need to buy a 12+ TB 7200 RPM to replace my 6 TB game drive. It's down to 14% left and I'm not a fan of uninstalling stuff because my rural internet sucks.

Nope, double the likelihood of data loss. It would be substantially cheaper though. I have no where to transfer that 6 TB while the RAID is created so that's really a non-starter.Would you consider chucking in a second 6TB for raid0? It ought to perform better than any single 12TB drive.

Literally me, my 6tb x300 is going down soon, no way is an ssd enough for me - at least without trading my kidney although I'll easily manage for two more years.I need to buy a 12+ TB 7200 RPM to replace my 6 TB game drive.

Actually I just want to find a good price on a Seagate 2TB hd logic board so I can get my data back. It's like 80can or so delivered. I think my drive is still under warranty, but I just want my data back.
Model: ST2000DM001. Well, it's 2TB of important data, I would love a new logic board for xmas...... It's the reason I have 11TBs of Toshiba storage now.
