1461279 2019-06-07 22:15:00 your link to pricespy didn't show any drives, was only a page of accolades and comments saying how awesome and speedy service pricespy is.

Sorry, that was the cheapest shop, they had it for $152.

hi. All good. I googled pricespy and went had a look myself. There is a 2TB Firecuda shown and it is $158, but it is 2.5inch Form Factor. I would prefer a 3.5inch because it fits in the bays of my PC. If I can't find a 3.5 inch I will settle for a 2.5 inch
thanks

There is a 3.5inch at the shop shown in the link...difference is that this has 64MB Cache and the 2.5 inch has 128MB Cache

1461281 2019-06-08 00:00:00 You can just use a 2.5" if the price is right, and buy a Mounting try, which fits a 3.5: slot. Thats what I do when changing a persons ( or my own) HDD's to SSD.

The ones I get from a local supplier are ADATA 2.5 To 3.5 Mounting Tray with Screws ( approx $6)

9695

Heres the actual tray as you get them, with screws, as well as a standard 2.5 Drive just put on top to get the size ( dont have any spare SSD'd at the moment).
