Hi,

I'm curious about the "battery-saving capability" by using Samsung 840 / 840 pro ssd, so I'm thinking to get one for my old 14 wide T61
I only need the bare drive since I already owned samsung 830. So if there is a used ssd, either it's a 470 or 830 or 840 as long it has 256GB capacity, drop me a PM. I live in Indonesia (South East Asia) and I can only pay via Paypal gift

For those who lives in USA, I will ask to ship the drive to Mr. Donald aka TuuS's address, from there Mr. TuuS will deliver any items I've bought to me ..

My budget is around US$100 - 150

Thank you

manual bump.

Your budget is a bit unrealistic. The least expensive I could find on eBay was around $170.

thank you for your advice .. but 10 hours ago I saw 256gb samsung 830 priced at $145 on ebay ...
and there are few samsung 470 oems around $145 on ebay ...

I can't get any 840, but used 470 / 830 is still possible

Well good luck. I have a 128 gig 840 (not the Pro) in one of my laptops and it is great. Not as familiar with the other models you mention. At $145 that would be a great deal. Can you local (US) contact person just buy one for you on eBay?

well, Mr. Donald aka TuuS has been very helpful to me and he offer to ship the item from usa to me, since I also bought a battery from him.

I've contacted one ebay seller that sells used 470 OEM ssds and he can only ship to USA address and willing to do business with me ..
wish me luck

Just bought a used samsung 840 ssd with 250gb capacity from amazon for US$ 155.68

Thank you.
