    Great deal. Great drive. $100 is good price for the performance and capacity. Get two and run in RAID for a super fast 256GB! :D

    A year? In December the retail price (on Newegg and Amazon) for a 128GB Crucial M4 was still at the $220 point. That's under half price in under 6 months. Compared to 6 months ago, our 128's are at the 64 price and our 256's are at the 128 price. They need to keep this up!

    I jumped at 2 for $350 on sale thinking i could resell them, only to have the price drop to $150 each almost overnight. They go on sale for $50 cheaper then a week later that seems to be the norm.

    Still waiting for the 512s to start dropping. Until then, I don't really have a use for any more small-capacity SSDs.
