Why does the "Follow Anandtech on Twitter" entry open a new window asking for access to your twitter feed for this last giveaway, when all the others had an option for "already followed"?
I don't give apps access to my Twitter feed, so... no entry for me there! :(.
Once again, I'd like to say a massive thanks both to AnandTech, for maintaining the high quality of reporting and reviewing over the years, as well as to the sponsors for making this series of giveaways possible. In particular, thanks to OCZ for today's giveaways!
With this, I'd be able to kick a very old (5+yr) WD black 1TB drive.... thing is becoming unstable...head keep parking which probably means it's gonna die soon
Hell yeah! I joined the "never going back to rotational drives" crowd last summer and never looked back. Now, I just need more SSD real estate. Oooh if only SSDs were 50 cents a gig ...
My PC is from 2010 (i7-2600k) and there is no M.2 slot, and BIOS does not support NVMe. Is it possible to use an NVMe M.2 SSD with some additional PCIe card? Is it possible to make it a system drive?
Day 20 - This has been an epic give-away event. I've not won anything yet, but there's still hope. A 1TB SSD would be awesome! I've been a fan for many years, and often link to your articles when I'm writing in other forums. Thank you, congratulations, and good luck for the next 20.
When I heard that you guys were celebrating 20 years, I was amazed. It's astonishing to see a tech forum/news be able to last 20 years with all the highs and lows. Big thanks to you and the community!
Man, I loved OCZ drives back in the day! I had a bunch of Solid 3 and Agility 3 drives that I put in the systems of friends and family. Didn't have the early death issues many complained about... in fact, I think my wife's PC is still rocking an old Vertex 3 after all this time.
I'd love to have a big new drive to throw at her machine!
I'm rocking an OCZ SSD right now! (And both my others are still going strong - even an Agility from 2009.) Since we're at the end, let me say...fix the stupid entry widget so it doesn't force open new tabs for youtube and facebook.
Thank you, Anandtech and Purch! Anandtech for being such a great and bonafide tech review site, and Purch for enabling Anandtech to continue what it does, while helping them expand. And thank you Toshiba and OCZ! Toshiba for bringing back OCZ from the brink, and OCZ for not giving up!
I'm glad M.2 is getting so popular. Seems so much more elegant for SSDs than SATA and the needed infrastructure (mounting screws, space, sata cable, power cable).

Hell yeah! I joined the "never going back to rotational drives" crowd last summer and never looked back. Now, I just need more SSD real estate. Oooh if only SSDs were 50 cents a gig ...lanchime - Tuesday, May 23, 2017 - link
That NVme SSD looks hotpeevee - Tuesday, May 23, 2017 - link
My PC is from 2010 (i7-2600k) and there is no M.2 slot, and BIOS does not support NVMe.Is it possible to use an NVMe M.2 SSD with some additional PCIe card?
Is it possible to make it a system drive?
Ryan Smith - Tuesday, May 23, 2017 - link
Yes, you can get M.2 PCIe riser cards. Do note however that you can't boot from the drive if your BIOS doesn't support NVMe booting.Tonyco2505 - Tuesday, May 23, 2017 - link

Didn't have the early death issues many complained about... in fact, I think my wife's PC is still rocking an old Vertex 3 after all this time.I'd love to have a big new drive to throw at her machine!
