    Noticed Amazon was selling these for $180 with free shipping, whereas they normally sit around $220+. Model AGT4-25SAT3-256G, and it appears to be $20-70 cheaper than most other places are selling for. It's not THAT much better a deal than other SSDs in this class (I was looking at Crucials 256gb and it's down around $205) but it is somewhat cheaper.

    Product specs from Amazon:
    Max. Read Up to 400MB/s; Max. Write Up to 400MB/s
    Max 4KB Random Read 48K; Max 4KB Random Write 85K
    MTBF 1.25 million hours

    I was looking at it too, but decided not to. i think it's a little slow for $180. For 180 i think i'll wait for the Crucial M4 (already have 2 M4 drives, and looking for a 3rd one).
