They use trusted payment method atleast. It is also a registered company -
Kgd-836yThat's ... quite a bargain.
I don't even have a pc yet (been planning on building a gaming pc), but 500gb ssd for less than 30€ is really tempting. -
I don't think I'd trust a $20 SSD anywhere near my computer. For one thing, for $20 does it have like a write capacity of 100 GB on planar TLC NAND? Probably. A lot of people don't realize planar TLC NAND without a DRAM cache and mediocre controller can be almost as slow as traditional HDDs. And is it pre-loaded with malware direct from the factory?

@Linux does Datagrottan ship to Norway?
I think I might order a few of these and pop into my server and test them -
@Linux I’m on my phone now, I’ll check when I get to work.
And today is “payday”, I got my tax refunds and airbnb payment. And real payday is tomorrow. Gosh, shopping spree, here I come. -
@Linux god darn it. I checked back just now, and the prices has been corrected.

@Linux I haven't been able to find SSDs for the prices you mentioned, all prices seem adequate. Could they have realized what they'd been offering? 😅

What even
You're probably going to get a thumb drive with a few screws for weight in a drive enclosure, but I'm curious, so report back -

Na it is a registered Swedish company, they pay taxes and all.
Also, if they try to scam me they would have problem with the police -
mindev5366y@Linux they won't. They will either send them to you, or contact you and tell you that your order was canceled because of their mistake

Linux434836y@Paramite

They probably had a great summer party :)
People is starting to get refunds now, and I have some contacts with people that live close that has visited them -
Had some identical issue two years ago. Some vendor placed a (I think it was a GTX980) for half of the price on Amazon. Turned out an intern made a mistake :/
