Strange. I tried searching on the app and web version before posting and no results came up.
Tried again now and it still doesn't.

Thanks

I got the SN750 500 GB for $79.99 at Memory Express during BF. Really good deal for a great drive. This is a good-ish deal for the EVO though.

Why settle for full retail price when you can wait and get it at a lower price for better value (even better if there's a bundled freebies deal)? 😉

Not the EVO Plus.

The SN750 is superior.

Still a decent value for money item.

Is a 1tb evo plus ok for a 17" Lenovo y540? Won't run too hot?

Run hot in what way? Will it constantly transfer hundreds of gigs in one sitting, frequently?

If you run it like a server SSD, it will run a little toasty at times.

If you run it like a consumer laptop... even that of a power user, I doubt you'll have a serious heat issue.

I would worry more about ventilation and cooling of laptop CPUs and GPUs. I presume the Y540 is a gaming laptop.

You'll be fine, as long as your laptop fits a double sided 2280 NVMe SSD. It should since it's not an ultrabook, but you may want to check.

Isn't the 1tb single sided?

I've seen posts on reddit saying they've put it in a y540 so I assume it'll work

I'm almost certain it will, assuming the NVMe is double-sided.

Even my Dell Inspiron 5505 ultrabook fits double-sided NVMe drives no problem.

I appreciate the confirmation from third parties.

T7 would be more reliable compared to a cheap enclosure.

Looking to buy Epson HT2150ST
