3.5 inch HDD huh ?

all these type of junk brands better avoid lah.................
Ya bought before not really true SSD the speed abit fast compare to HDD but performance don’t seem real. Any feedback ?
Thinking of ordering but a Taiwanese told me minimum order quantity is 50 for certain Brands. He will only submit the request once he received the order.

One brand 1 TB costs USD108.39 excludes shipping cost.

Laptop is cheaper.
This is a SATA3 SSD…only support max 6Gbps transfer speed.
Not Gen 4 NVMe SSD which supports max transfer speed of 7000 megabytes/sec…

It is at least 10 to 12x slower…

Now 500GB Gen 4 NVME SSD, can get it $170++

I rather buy smaller storage with faster speed SSD.
The price is Sandisk Plus 1 TB. Not worth it. Maybe looking at another brand for 3.5 Inch.

Lazada selling S$175.
Read/write speeds of up to 535MB/s/450MBs** [960GB & 1TB]
Graphic card now big lelong sale…I think now drop more than 40% already.
RTX 3060 Ti card can get it at below $800.
Before the plunge. It was sold above $1300++
Look like it won’t stop at 40% discount…

no need bracket lah...............i just chuck the SSD somewhere........... Laughing
The choice between a 2.5-inch SSD and a 3.5-inch SSD often comes down to the type of system you're using. Laptops typically use the 2.5-inch form factor because of their compact size, while desktops have more room for the larger 3.5-inch SSDs.
Both can offer 1TB of storage, and it's great that you have options on Alibaba.com. It's essential to ensure compatibility with your system before making a purchase. You can also use the ruler tool at ruler.onl to visualize the size difference between the two SSD types and make an informed decision. Happy shopping for your storage upgrade!
The prices keep dropping. Now, SSD 2TB can be $50. Have a few spare now.
