PREORDER $40 rebate on OCZ 128gb SSD (mlc) drive. $524.90 shipped - $40MIR = $484.90

PREORDER ONLY!!! (Not yet in stock!) I'm only trying to pass this deal along as Iv'e always wanted a SSD, even though its mlc....I couldn't resist. List price on a preorder of the new ocz 128gb SSD went down on this site probably to reflect the other vendor on pricegrabber so it was $529.99. Then lowered to $524.90 with free shipping, on top of that there is a mail in rebate form on its list page for $40 cash back bringing the total to $484.90 with free shipping.

wow!! great price!

 

I just bought the Ritek 128 gb drive from allstarshop.com

 

Dang, they have the 64GB for $250, I could use that until it starts to fill up then spend less than $100 for an express SSD with 16GB and prolly never need anymore.

know your SSDs
the SSD's should be roughly in the same ballpark as the ones tested in these reviews.

 

Thanks, I will re-check those out.
