My student discount only shows 179, is the 161 for at work?

I got the discount for two separate @work accounts once signed in. (Limit one item per account.)

Normally these apply to student accounts as well. Waiting for my daughter to check her student account as I need one more of these.

I swear it was earlier but looks like it's no longer there. And yup! I went with the non-heatsink models since my motherboard is the same.

Is this the same thing with the 10% back?

Oddly, I got an option for pickup at a local Best Buy.

Samsung partnered up with Best Buy to allow Samsung.com orders to be picked up from your local Best Buy. Check out the article https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/...up-service

Same thing except it doesn't have a heatsink (used to lower temperatures on the M.2). If you're planning on using it for the PS5, I highly recommend getting one with the heatsink.

If you are not urgent, just wait. The price will drop by the end of the year due to over-supply.

Still PCIe 4.0. Not worth it. it was 5.0, perhaps.

How do you sign up for "at work" accounts?

At work (i.e. if you work for GE, Dell, Tesla, etc.). They have a company portal typically to provide discounts. My employer does discounts for Dell, Bose, Samsung, LG and many more.

The $161 price is without the heat sink. $170 with heat sink. Try adding it to your cart and then it should show your discounted price

The description does not say any heatsink.

I was also able to use military discount and get the heatsink version for $170.

I wonder how long it'll take for the 4TB version to drop
