    ### Happy Techtober!

    Giving away a Samsung 980 Pro with Heatsink 1TB NVMe SSD!

    As before, the entire drive has been TRIM’ed, but the winner should install [Samsung Magician](https://semiconductor.samsung.com/consumer-storage/magician/) in order to check for a firmware update.

    Just leave a comment and I’ll pick a random winner in 24 hours! Will ship to anywhere in the contiguous United States.
