im torn i just ordered the saumsung 840 evo for $160, should I cancel and get this one instead?

I would cancel it and order this drive from TD. You will get an additional $20 off with v.me Visa checkout off your $100 or more order or $30 off a $150+ order if you want to pick up some filler items.

I'm considering returning the one I bought from newegg (via shop runner free return shipping)and ordering from TD because I want to get $30 off and I need to pick up some case fans as well. Even with the case fans and paid shipping, I still end up paying less than on newegg.

But TD has terrible customer service and only offers shop runner on like 10% of their products which pisses me off.

@ RaistlinZ I don't know if it was just a mistake, but you have compared the 600 to the older Samsung 840 and not the EVO or Pro. The Samsung Pro is faster all round but the EVO is faster in some categories and slower in others. The SSD the other poster suggested was the EVO which is currently available for 119.99 which is $10 less.

FedEx SmartPost by the egg
Normanaly I get my order from Newegg in less then 20 hrs except for small mail packages.
Newegg in EDISON, NJ is about 30 miles fom me.
Why does the NJ egg always mail tiny packages to the next state first.

Tracking states FedEx NJ got the info first and then the package was sent 125 miles west to ALLENTOWN, PA then sent 200+ miles east to Windsor, CT strange.
Next time I will buy something cheap that goes in box and get the order in a day.

This package traveled 500 miles to go a 30 mile distance from the egg to me

Made in Taiwan also.

Mail from Edison to me in CT goes thru the USPS hub in MA. However packages from Edison (UPS/FedEx) sometimes hit Allentown and sometimes don't.

Wondering now how long it's going to take to get my drives... dingbats didn't even send me a courtesy email that they're on backorder, but an order confirmation.
