    LOLz @ comments on lockups... Good price, but for a defective product, not worth it.

    Highly agree, HTWingNut! Think I'll stick with my Seagate after reading the reviews.

    I think this drive is a great deal, also it doesn't have a Sandforce controller (so reliability should be good), I had the 30GB version of this drive and it worked great for over a year without issues (I sold it recently).

    I see it at $140 - 20 MIR, unless I'm missing something?
    Decent drive, we had it in Canada for $99 after rebate.
    Friends that have bought it have been very happy with it.

    It's still an OCZ product, hence it's not reliable :)
