Samsung 830 unavailable?

R.C.Anderson · 19 Feb 2013 at 19:08

I ordered a 512GB 830 last week form a competitor, but then I got an email saying they were out of stock, but were expecting more this week, but looking round, I can't see anyone else who has stock of this drive at the moment.

Has it been discontinued & therefore no longer available because of the 840/840 pro, or is everyone in the country waiting on a ship to arrive?

No one got any ideas on this?

Otherwise, what should I replace it with? How much difference is there between the 840 & 840 pro?

They might have some old stock left but it has been discontinued,the 840 pro is the best,but the non pro isn't bad either

I've got a non-pro and it seems pretty pro to me

Ok, I'll probably go for the standard 840 then if they're not getting any more 830 drives in.

It's mainly just as a space upgrade, as I already have a Vertex 3, but would obviously nice to have a decent speed increase too
