Chinese English...
I sent them a mail, then a fb message saying iv had no response to my mail, they have since said they will respond. still waiting .hahahahahaaa
what voucher are you using at loot?
nope, not included. technically i could have fought them over details hahahaa
Interesting....the feedback I got is that the "storage is correct".
I guess they didn't actually say "product includes a hard drive".
anyways...i placed an order.
let's see....

The leaflet on the link at Raru indicates the HDDs are not included, so max capacity is 8TB...

I want to get a SSD at some point in the next couple months. Anything decent to go for these days?
I've been out of the loop and haven't followed PC hardware progression for several years. The last time I changed anything in my PC was when I bought a GTX 970 4 years ago which is still fine for gaming. Just need a SSD as some games have lots of load screens which takes ages to load (Path of Exile specifically)

Interested to see how this turns out.

It's Chinese English.. Storage drives installed probably means internal drives and total installed storage probably refers to the maximum amount of storage supported..Interested to see how this turns out.
Edit: actually, I think total installed storage of 8 GB refers to internal storage where the OS is installed..

It was R4400 in Jan so not really a good deal.

As you can see in the last few pages of the thread SSD prices have dropped by around half in the last 6 months so now is the perfect time to buy.
Your motherboard is probably too old to handle a m,2 / nvme ssd so just go with a sata ssd. You can go smaller but I would not go under 500GB really as it is good value for money. This seagate comes to mind....

One could only hope. Wouldn't mind a 1tb for R1K
With tech you can always wait longer and prices will drop. You have to make a decision at some time though especially if you need something as a necessity and not a luxury. That said some price drops does not happen gradually but more like "suddenly" like ssd prices over the last few months. Usually after such "sudden" drops the price "evens" out more or less which is what I think has happened with ssd pricing. I could be wrong though.
I cannot see us paying 1K for a 1TB SSD in the short term, so like the OP mentions he wants to buy "in the next couple of months" - I don't see major price changes.

Yeah I'm in no rush to buy. Can wait for a bargain if there is one, hence why I posted here.
