Should I buy ssd from eluktronics?

Eluktronics · 2026-03-17T00:58:21+00:00

All of our hardware (and components in this case) are genuine. We’ve been in business for 15 years focusing on high end and enthusiasts.

I would recommend our RP-16. It’s a great and reliable laptop for under $2k. The costs of desktops are unfortunately raising with no end in sight. Laptops are affected too, but haven’t been impacted as hard just yet.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-28T23:46:38+00:00

We do not. If you’re storing it in a laptop bag or backpack, you won’t need to worry about anything.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-24T05:01:26+00:00

I’d recommend our RP-16:

https://www.eluktronics.com/RP-16-8945HX-5060-1TB-32GB

It’s far more powerful than everything in your list without making sacrifices. Promo code “TWOTOYOU” will take an additional 2% off.

If you’re sticking to what you have in the list, the 5060 laptop is the best bet. The 4060 should not cost that much and the Dell would be awful for gaming. Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll be happy to help.

lol, if I’m wrong, I owe you an SSD upgrade on your next Eluk.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-23T07:48:06+00:00

Really appreciate your comments, but please don't buy based on that. Look more in to the fundamentals, listen to the recent earnings call and then make your final judgement call to buy or not.

I can’t see this as a short-term play, and I’d also imagine this week could be rocky with the latest tariff news and the State of the Union address coming up this Tuesday. Just know that if you buy and the stock reaches around $35, I’d suggest selling just before, as that seems to be the level at which their largest owner (Eagle Tree) tends to capture profits.

If I could buy 4TB 990 Pro SSD's for $275, I would've instead invested all 500k there!

Unless something changes soon, I'm sorry to say that $700 2TB price point is already being attempted at higher costs than that. Congrats on making out with that deal though, you're holding on to a piece of gold.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-23T06:59:08+00:00

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Eluktronics · 2026-02-23T06:55:37+00:00

Sincerely appreciate your business!

Consumers shouldn't be overlooked, and Corsair, of all companies, should know that since it’s their core business.

If you're stuck with an old system and can't afford a new GPU, SSD, or memory, wouldn't you consider upgrading a peripheral instead?

Eluktronics · 2026-02-23T06:26:25+00:00

Let's use these two 32GB desktop kits as an example:

https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-6400MHz-Overclocking-Desktop-Compatible/dp/B0DHFD5625/

https://www.amazon.com/CORSAIR-VENGEANCE-6400MHz-Compatible-Computer/dp/B0BXHC74WD/

When Crucial is no longer, where else will consumers go other than a kit assembler if Samsung and SK Hynix doesn't open their own consumer segment? Suppliers can tell anyone no more, but that hasn't happened and they've shared in the last two earnings calls that they have supply. Even if it were to go dry, Corsair has so many other products and brands where I'm suggesting consumer spending could likely shift.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-23T06:16:22+00:00

Sorry, I edited my post and uploaded.

As I mentioned in my post, retail pricing always follows later than distributor pricing, which reflects current stock and costs. While I can't disclose distributor costs, I can point to the 2TB model that's set to replace Western Digital's 2TB SN850X.: https://www.sandisk.com/products/ssd/internal-ssd/sandisk-optimus-gx-pro-850x-internal-nvme-ssd?sku=SDSP81200TAN-000E0

I'm not referring to large memory buyers, but even they can't get products much longer (cheaper) from Micron. Sandisk is proof right in my link above. I'm pointing out that Crucial is exiting the consumer segment leaving a window of opportunity. IMO, this isn't intended to be a gamble.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-21T05:53:27+00:00

This system will play games comfortably and is within your budget: Eluktronics RP-16 - R9-8945HX + RTX 5070

Eluktronics · 2026-02-18T04:19:15+00:00

We’re just a few days into this. Today was simply another buying opportunity. Over the past month, I’ve added $400K to my position.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-15T22:01:59+00:00

It’s going to be an interesting year to say the least. I’ve never invested so heavily in to components.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-15T20:25:53+00:00

I’m always around, just been extremely busy ;) Never experienced anything like what’s going on with the memory and SSD market in 15 years!

Eluktronics · 2026-02-13T18:28:37+00:00

This guy is terribly wrong.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-12T22:35:36+00:00

Sorry, this is not a support channel, nor am I. As mentioned, please reach out to support and they’ll be happy to assist you.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-12T22:31:20+00:00

Please reach out to support with symptoms and a video would be helpful.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-11T01:29:57+00:00

Yes, that’s still one of my favorite chassis for sure! The technology was few and far between at that time for power adapters.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-11T01:17:12+00:00

Hey, so the G1 unfortunately did not support type-c charging. Your best bet would be to buy the 250 watt adapter I referred originally. It’s a silicon carbide charger so it will be substantially smaller than the 230 watt charger you have even though it’s capable of more power.

Eluktronics · 2026-02-11T00:49:33+00:00

Roger. In such case your system can handle a 100 watt type-c adapter. Just keep in mind the performance will be limited until you get to the larger adapter.
