They are but all the stuff I've had from them has been mailed from Switzerland for the past year or so.

Is anyone knowledgeable able to comment on the comparison between this and the Toshiba and Sandisk which have been available at about this price. If indeed there is much difference.

The Toshiba ones are pretty slow - they are based on the same tech as the OCZ [i think Toshiba bought OCZ]
They are cheap but not very fast. That said Im struggling to find benchmarks on these as they are new but I have used Integral memory for a fe years at work and it has been good... UK company was the final straw for me - i have ordered one :smiley:

when it comes to games, I doubt a 100MB/s difference will be noticeable.

anyone else having a problem making a paypal payment with mymemory?
ZaGaZ
4 Jul 161#15
Yeah... It failed for me in Chrome, Edge & IE & i opened a web chat with them - their PP payment appears to be broken... I used Visa in the end and it went through...

I was bored by this deal, I wish someone would making a fcking really exciting SSD deal. Come on some one step to to the plate. Otherwise I'm going to have to do it and you don't want that.

I can't find any reviews on this SSD... and the price seems suspiciously low for its size and claimed performance (even outside of the deal). I have heard of Integral, but only in regards to general flash storage such as MicroSD and SD cards. I didn't know they entered the SSD market. Maybe it's too recent to have gotten a review yet, but I wish a trusted site like Anandtech had something to say about it.

If the 480GB is as good as the 240GB then this is hot hot hot!

Seems it has a Phison S10 controller and TLC NAND. The controller is reviewed here
Think I read this controller goes some way to remedy the weaknesses of TLC. Read figures are fine, but I'd like to see the sustained and random write figures all the same ...
ZaGaZ
5 Jul 16#21
good find sir... reads good for a cheap drive... mine should be here Wed so ill run some tests and report back. My Sandisk piece of crap writes at < 70Mb / sec right now so i cant wait to bin that piece of crap....
M1sterDeeds
5 Jul 16#22
Don't bin, donate, my new best friend ZaGaZ sir. You look handsome today.
I have mixed Brand use with the SSDs I've had. Crucial, Samsung and Sandisk. The Sandisk one was cheap. I think it was one I got off a deal on here. But that was the first drive I've had fail so far.

So what kind of warranty do you get?

Out of stock now, unfortunately.

It will go in a laptop :sunglasses:
But look at this for write speed!!!

What's the difference between this and say a Samsung 250gb ssd for the same price. I'm currently deciding what parts to purchase for my first ever pc build
Thanks
ZaGaZ
5 Jul 16#27
I doubt you will get a samsung for the same price :-)
This would be fine for your first build however i think they are out of stock now...
Hootwo
5 Jul 16#28
That's a shame. Which Sandisk SSD is that?
We use Integral storage a lot at work, but I don't know Integral's P Series, so will be interested what Write speed it gives.
decbear
5 Jul 16#29
Sorry I meant a 250gb Samsung was almost the same price as the integral 480gb. Literally a couple of pounds in it. Guess it's irrelevant now though

We just purchased a 240Gb one at work for a laptop and the benchmark is pretty impressive:

6 Jul 16#33
Pretty good but I wonder if it'll stand the test of time.
I've grabbed one of these for my sister's laptop, it might not be the fastest or longest lasting SSD available, but I'm sure it'll be more than fast enough for "normal" computer stuff vs a mechanical HDD and I'm sure at the rate an average user (like my sister) reads/writes from/to their main drive it'll last many, many years.
If it turns out to be crap, I'll report back.

Can't seem to checkout.
Have tried PayPal and visa so may no longer be available.
Gutted I missed it again...lol

Just managed to order after going from their mobile to full site which allows the use off visa payment not through paypal.
Happy bunny. Thanks Op.

Got my dispatch notification today, anyone know how long these usually take to arrive?
booboy2
9 Jul 16#42
Well mine was posted yesterday after ordering yesterday. I paid £1.49 for express dispatch and its just arrived today recorded delivery from Jersey. Very pleased. Thanks op.
matt101101 to booboy2
9 Jul 16#43
Mine arrived today, too. Not bad considering I only bought it on the 7th and I used the free delivery option. However, I haven't been able to use it yet as the laptop it's destined for isn't arriving until Monday!

10 Jul 16#44
used mine a lot the last couple of days... very fast ssd.. total bargain... want another....
matt101101
11 Jul 16#45
So far I'm very impressed with this SSD, if a 960GB version turns up at a good price I'd be more than willing to install some of those in my own systems.
Whilst I was initially setting up my sister's new laptop I had to use the HDD it came with, I'd forgotten how awful mechanical drives make otherwise decent computers feel to use...
booboy2
11 Jul 16#46
I too am very impressed.
My four year old laptop used to take 75+ seconds to start up and now it takes 8 seconds from switching on to being on a webpage.
Every single thing is instant and it has completely rejuvenated my computer.
I am waiting for it to come back into stock to buy for my other half.
matt101101
11 Jul 16#47
If you have Amazon Prime (or sign up for a free 30 day trial on either your account or a new one), I'd be surprised if there aren't some SSD deals as part of the "Amazon Prime Day" thing tomorrow.
If you don't fancy thats, MyMemory's "Notify Me" thing works flawlessly via text and email, that's how I knew these had come back into stock last time. :smiley:
booboy2
11 Jul 161#48
Cheers matt.
Very good advice.
Just activated a stock alert for this drive.
I will be watching the prime offers tomorrow with interest too.
ZaGaZ to booboy2
12 Jul 16#50
nooooooo.... I replaced a sandisk with this one as it was useless....
ebuyer have a toshiba 480 for a similar price if the integral one is not in stock...
matt101101
12 Jul 16#52
Was it that model of SSD, or just your specific unit? The only experience I have with SanDisk SSDs is the 120GB SanDisk Extreme I've had since 2012, which has been absolutely faultless in the nearly 15,000 hours it's been running for.
ZaGaZ
12 Jul 16#53
It was a SanDisk pulse - just under 3 years old and the write speeds were so low... but they have agreed to RMA it and give me a SanDisk ultra instead :sunglasses:
The speed stats are in this thread....
matt101101 to ZaGaZ
12 Jul 16#54
Well you can't really argue with their CS at least. I've never heard of the Pulse, was it a low end drive?
ZaGaZ
12 Jul 16#55
true... there was only 2 days left on the 3 year warranty too... that said 60mb write is terrible... I won't buy sandisk again....
