thanks.. I mean I can buy it here in NZ but the first link on eBay for example was a good $40 Cheaper than the cheapest [according to price website] one available here I guess im asking, should I fear buying through [a reputable dealer] on eBay? I guess my risk is paying for international postage if something fucks up but for $40 cheaper it'd still probably be cheaper either way also id keep a ghost style backup on another hd.. what's the cheapest/free backup/ghost thing?

that's fuxkin rude. ill check it out when I get home, thanks it's great that websites like DX.com support cheap but slow as gently caress shipping but amazon etc do "global priority" etc... give me a choice god drat it!!! I want lowest price and if it takes a month or two I don't care. sparkfun actually does this and it's an American company an it's amazing

Just installed a 250gb 840 EVO and it's awesome but a lot of fuckin around trying to get windows to install on it.. turns out it was failing because I had other drives connected to pc while doing it. disconnecting them while install fixed everything. un-awesome

dud root posted:I don't know why to this day windows still insists on dicking around with all connected drives during an install. Even if it didn't, I'd still recommend removing all drives as a precaution. It's hosed up though, there is zero reason to think to do so. At the very least windows install could give you some kind of clue as to why it was failing. I googled for it etc and was coming up with all sorts of things about MBR vs GPT etc... Also since even from USB it takes a good 10 minutes or so for windows 7 to load files and get ready to install before you can even find out it'll fail.
