That's pretty hot! (Well, discounting that these are most likely SandForce 2nd-gen drives.)

I guess this portends low prices to come, very soon now.

Not Sandforce according to the Internet.

IMHO, that makes it even hotter. Less bugs. The SMI-based drives (regardless of brand) with that controller, seem to all get good reviews. (Mushkin Reactor, Apotop, BX100)

Great find OP :thumbsup:

Previous best price for this drive was $59.99 for the 240GB.

And yes, this is a good drive.

SMI controller (with DRAM buffer) and MLC NAND.
