Terrible deal. There's plenty of sales on 1tb SATA ssds under $180. Right now you can get Micron MX500 at rakuten for $165 or so. https://www.rakuten.com/shop/thekeykey/product/211110/ (use code BTS15 for the discount)
Same place sells 960gb SSD (pretty much the same thing) for $127 https://www.pcgamer.com/amp/grab-a-960gb-solid-state-drive-for-only-dollar127/
On top of that, it's only 1 year warranty...
AnzialJust confirmed 3 year warranty with the factory.
Edited.

Tex-ArozziNot much, Micron offers 5 years with MX500
AnzialMicron is a crap brand though, known for making budget SSDs that are only worthwhile because of their price. HP is a brand with a little bit of quality behind their name at least. I would take 3 years on a quality product over 5 years on a budget one. But there is nothing wrong if you prefer to save money on cheap hardware, you just can't make the comparison

dead_pixel_designMx500 is faster than the HP drive, AND HP uses micron ssd chips too.

dead_pixel_designIronic, didn't you know that HP uses an older gen Micron NAND in this drive? Not to mention both MX500 and HP S700 pro are using the exact same controller. So hardware-wise, Mx500 and HP S700 pro are pretty much exactly the same, with MX500 having newer and better NAND.

Tex-ArozziSir! Either it IS or is NOT HP. By your own admission this is both HP AND NOT HP. So what’s it gonna be? You just claimed in earlier comments that HP does not own or have anything to do with the factory and then again just now you called it the HP factory. Film flam sham scam. Either you’re really inexperienced or you’re not being honest. I vote for the last one after reading all of your comments. If you’re gonna tell a lie, its best not to be consistently inconsistent with the details.
cyberkeeper1Good call. I edited my comment. I can assure you I am not lieing and do not appreciate you making that assumption.
