$175 512GB MX100.
Limit 3. Ends 1/30 (on Newegg.com, where the price is $5 more with promo code EMCAKNV23).
I had said I had wanted a 1TB raid...and would do so when a decent drive was available for around .33/GB. .34 will have to do because a couple are on their way.
While this isn't a great deal cheaper than where they normally have been on sale, these are probably being discounted/phased-out in the lead-up to the slightly more efficient/expensive MX200 and the less-efficient BX100 taking their place at MSRP ~$200. While you are taking your chances versus whatever shows up this quarter being a better perf/$, or this and similar drives dropping lower, these are solid, proven drives at a great price currently...especially per GB (the rare 512GB in an ocean of 480GBs or Samsung's 500).
If you need a drive, this is as a good a deal as anything else out there for most people/purposes.
