Deal History
Deal History includes data from multiple reputable stores, such as Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The lowest price among stores for a given day is selected as the "Sale Price".
Sale Price does not include sale prices at Amazon unless a deal was posted by a community member.
$100 is my price threshold for media these days, so I use 2.5" SSDs for storage on Raspberry Pis and TimeMachine on Mac laptops when combined with
StarTech USB3 to SATA adapter cables = https://www.startech.com/en-us/hd...%2520cable
However, I look at TBW these days for quality and these are 25% of the CX2 model by the same group (I believe they posted the wrong # for the CX2 when you look at the product description it is different). https://www.newegg.com/Product/Pr...reall=true

I bought this in Dec 2023 as a drive just for my Steam library. it died within a month. The warranty replacement was pretty painless and the replacement has been going strong since then. I think these drives either last forever or die quickly. I've bought a lot of Team products over the years and was surprised. Luckily I didn't have any critical data on this drive. Just my own cautionary tale.

With mystery drives it's probably best to run something like Linux badblocks on it, at least once.
You want to fill all flash with data, make sure it can write at least once. Then use SATA erase to fully reset it.
