The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    ~ second lowest price ever. 30 bucks higher than the cheapest which was 229

    SanDisk Extreme II 480GB SATA 6.0GB/s 2.5-Inch 7mm Height Solid State Drive (SSD) With Read Up To 545MB/s & Up To 95K IOPS- SDSSDXP-480G-G25 | Amazon price tracker / tracking, Amazon price history charts, Amazon price watches, Amazon price drop alert.

    I am holding out personally but if you need one jump on it. Also if you bought it in the last week just contact amazon and they will give you a price match to the new low price as along as you are in the 7 day window.

    Words of wisdom from a frugal SOB

    Sometimes you can score a better deal on a lightly used drive of similar or higher capacity. Check out the forums here and elsewhere. Plenty of folks with good deals.
