HPE Samsung PM863a 3.84TB @ ~ $150 (Gone!)

[René!]

I just bought 3 myself. I'm not familiar with this seller, but the sellers conditions are covering any issues. Also nothing has been written about wear level, but these drives should handle 5PBW.

Thought this would be worth posting here

Only 1 per link as it seems:

I'm in for one. Looks too good to be true, and likely a pricing error, as they are selling 480GB SSDs for the same price. They also have the same drives listed here: 866615-005 Ref HPE 3.84tb SATA 6g RI SFF SC DS SSD for sale online | eBay for $979.99. Interesting to see what gets shipped. Not worth $150 for a 480GB SATA SSD these days.

Just missed this!

Just missed this!

Holy smokes that was fast.

Definitely curious if those come as expected as those are exactly the same trays my old g5 units use--which if anyone is not going to use, I'll gladly cover shipping to get them to me.

I don't think they would ship out a different item, because the items description didn't change over time. According to Google Cache these were previously $494,99 and the BIN price has changed a lot according to the item revisions. But we'll see what happens!

There are 4 of those (sandisk lightning) available at that price (original price >1k$)

Edit: although it seems to be a generic pic, so not sure what they are (have not read description)

How did you happen to run across this deal?

 

[mimino]

I'd be shocked if any of you who ordered actually got them. I'll be pulling my hair out

 

[erm_what]

My order was cancelled and refunded by the seller. He said it was an automatic listing that went wrong.

I'd guess both sellers have the same supplier and that's where the misprice is.

 

[daviddoran]

My order was cancelled too. Oh well.

 

[Samir]

Bummer guys. But it makes those of us that missed the deal feel better if that's any consolation.

 

[René!]

Yeah looks like they’re all cancelled. Too bad, but now we get the joy in looking for real deals

 

[Evan]

I was super disappointed I missed such a deal , I guess it wasn’t to be. Meanwhile the standard price still below $100 a TB
