Just got one of these for myself, if you are buying a few pieces Komplett combine shipping on their items so while it's 10euros for 1 item you'll be paying 10euros postage in total for a bunch of shit and that SSD is pretty sweet being down from 154 to 99euros, good time to buy... I thought!

Hmm I may need to look into this sooner if the deal is 99 euros, I assume they delievr to the UK?, if they accept my debit card I should probably snag this while I can since it would be a few pounds cheaper than the SSD I'm looking at on my list (checked prices a few mins ago well into the £100+ range =/).

Also I think I might go with a new internal HDD, the current one I sport is a WD Green 2tb with a write speed of 5400 RPM, the green product line is supposed to serve for mostly backups and storage of files instead of gaming like the Blue and Black line, I might go for a Blue WD internal 2tb since they are often cheaper than the black WD's which are just that bit more for a little more gain.

could consider something hybrid"y" then? like http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01opsl/20210500/seagate-barracuda-sshd-1tb-8gb-hybrid/details.aspx

basically 1tb drive with an 8gb cache for programs and files which is a tiny SSD stuck to the side of the magnetic drive. Have 500gb variants of these at the College I work at, they're pretty effective and fast, do lost the ability to turn off your magnetic disks and just run silently from an SSD if you go hybrid tho.

 

also... http://hexus.net/business/news/retailers/13995-komplettcouk-shuts-uk-operations/ possibly bad news for you in the UK there, which is odd since my package from them came through the UK on its way to me.

Would be odd for them not to sell to the UK members from that site?
