I heard this is microcenter's home brand, but who actually makes the drives/chips

Does anyone know of a cheapish raid card 4 or so of these can be put in?

If you motherboard can bifurcate PCIe slots, you can just get an Asus Hyper m.2 V2 card:

https://www.asus.com/motherboards...6-card-v2/

or from ASRock:

https://www.asrock.com/mb/spec/pr...M.2%20CARD

I think Gigabyte also makes one, and there are probably others from China.

These cards are PCIe Gen3, just like the NVMe posted here.

There are similar cards for PCIe Gen4.

If you need to raid, you can do it in software.
Otherwise you can find NVMe raid cards but those are expensive as hell.
Same goes for quad cards that do their own bifurcation in case your motherboard doesn't, they are expensive as hell.

For example:
https://www.amazon.com/KONYEAD-Ca...C87&sr=8-4

Also keep in mind cooling the drives, some of those quad cards do not come with a heatsink to cover them all (like the one in the last link).

The intel 670P 2TB is a true steal compare to this.

We've been over this a lot of times. Half of Americans live within 30 minutes of a Microcenter. Microcenter in the title is probably a good idea, but deals aren't irrelevant because they're at Microcenter.

From what I can see from google map, most Microcenters are located in right half of U.S. and there are only 2 in left half, and NONE in upper-left quater. Congrats to 50% Americans lives within 30 mins drive to Microcenter.

Yeah, it's $20 more at Amazon. Even if you do live sort of close to a Microcenter, how much gas and wear and tear on a car would it take to eat up that $20 savings much less your time?

Not really — It looks like a great store with great prices but they are only in 16 states and last I checked there were 50 of those — so it is not likely that there is a MC store near anywhere close to 50% of the US population

Half of USA lives in Eastern time zone [google.com]
Most Americans live in the Eastern half. Microcenter is in Denver, Dallas, Houston, and LA. It's true that not everyone has it, but my claim isn't wrong.

Half the US population lives in the ten most populous states [businessinsider.com], not sure where you're going with that....

Microcenters are in the following metros:
Atlanta
Chicago
Columbus
Dallas
DC
Detroit
Denver
Houston
Kansas City
Los Angeles
Minneapolis
NYC
Philadelphia
St. Louis

Notable (populous) metro areas without a Microcenter:
Austin/San Antonio
Bay Area
Miami (and Florida more generally)
Phoenix
Seattle

If you don't live near a Microcenter it doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. There's not a Microcenter in my city, but there's one an hour away in Denver and so I'm mildly interested in Microcenter deals. I see Microcenter deals as being kind of like those military-only deals, except that they have way wider reach.

Oh boy oh boy, you left out Boston, Massachusetts. Home to Harvard and MIT. Guys like me who creep for tech deals at 4 am in the Morning!

According to quite a bit of internal chatter, Microcenter is pretty much a lock to open in Austin later this year or early next. Hoping they put it in north Austin, since that's where most of the tech companies are located (and me), but figure it'll be south to better capture folks from San Antonio. I can't wait!

The way i know you're pulling the 50% population statistic out of your ass is you considering the tustin store as the entire los angeles area. Its literally 35 miles away.

Out of curiosity, i decided to look up how many people actually lived near a store, and i used the metro population like you did, and thats being generous. Only 54 million people live near their 25 stores. So no, 50% of people do not live near a microcenter, more like 15%. You can now stop trying to justify posting these crappy microcenter deals that 85% of people in the us cant access.

You're absolutely right that the title should say "Microcenter B&M ONLY".
