120GBs SSDs prices have crept up to around $105-$110 for the low end. This one's down to $80 today, so this is pretty hot.

Promo code: EMCYTZT2964 - expires end of today.

Some reviews I found online. Looks like this is a SandForce SF-2281 controller.

Got one. Great bang for the bunk. Best deal on a 120Gig ssd I have seen in a while.

Wow already sold out.

I saw that this morning too, promo email from Newegg. Was considering this one as well:

Basically double the storage for double the price. I haven't looked up anything about the drive itself but I've had good luck w/ Crucial and it's SATA III, meaning plenty good enough for my old SATA 1 laptop if I go for it.

I think this uses a SandForce 2281 with 19nm Toggle NAND. Supposedly the firmware is semi-custom for Kingston. Should be a nice drive, especially for the price.

WOW. When I bought my 180gb Intel 330 Maple Crest for $99 I didn't realize what a deal it was. Shoulda' bought two!

BTW: back in stock ($110) now that the code is dead.
