Probably a good deal. Yesterday I picked up the 120Gb Vertex 2 Extended for $219. :ohwell:

There`s a little bit of hype about ssds but there`s no denying boot-up is totally faster

everything is faster with an SSD

Great deal, I paid $150 for my X25-V and it's amazingly speedy.

Yep, very good deal. Good drive, too. Good size.

It's not just the speed. I value peace and quiet and these things are silent. I just bought the vertex 2 120gb and windows 7 loads up quicker than bios. Shuts down in under 5 seconds.

My next build will be nothing but ssd.

What did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking?
