"Luckily, the Accelerator 30GB has an ace up its sleeve which may help mitigate these concerns. Namely, with an asking price of only $59, this model may so frugally priced that nothing in the same price range will be able to match it."

$2/GB is frugal? I hope that's a joke on their part as the 120GB drives have been routinely going for around $59 lately. I thought about getting a smaller cache drive (32GB or so) and setting up SRT on it but the per GB cost makes all the ones I've seen so far deal breakers. You're better off just getting a larger SSD and using that as your primary.

I'd say something about CDN>USD but they're too close now to matter.

The cost floor for a 30GB Sandforce drive is around $45, and $50 gets you a 30GB Corsair Nova, so I'm assuming the extra $10 is the software.

dunno paid $49 for the agility 4 128gb so i'd have to try harder on that deal.
