Is this the best deal for a 240gb SSD?

Seems like the best deal out there to me (even though the 'list price' is bogus), but I admittedly know very little about SSDs. Planning to purchase a bunch of computer parts today. Was going to get all my stuff at Newegg but didn't find many 240gb SSDs in the same price range, except for This intel 335 series but not sure how that compares.

Mucho thanks in advance for any info

I picked up an Intel 330 240gb at Newegg for $139.99 + shipping.

Wait 10 days, I'm sure there will be some Boxing Day sales.

If I were going to buy a Sandforce SSD, which I am extremely unlikely to do because I think there are better (if slightly more expensive) choices, I would only buy Intel.

So between your two choices of Sandisk or Intel, I'd go with the Intel 335 for $170, that is a good price for an okay SSD.

or some crucial m4 also can be found for excellent price.

This! Probably something much better than a Crucial M4 at right-now's price.
