Just picked up a PNY CS1311 240GB TLC SSD from Best Buy for $44.99.
Not bad for a 240GB TLC SSD.

Frys has the 480GB Toshiba OCZ Vector 180 (mlc) for $99 if you have their mail order promo code. This is the lowest price I have seen for a MLC drive of this size.

Looks like it's dead. I managed to buy one yesterday at $45. Maybe it was one of those "one day only sales"

That was a smoking deal.

Phison S10 and Toshiba 15nm TLC.....one of the better combinations (as far as TLC goes).

3x Combo of Adata blue/black USB3.0 16GB Flash Drives for $9.99. Seems to have $2.99 egg-saver shipping, at least up to a qty of 5x combos (15 drives),

Ordering 15 drives (5x combos of 3x drives) for $50 + $3 shipping, comes out to slightly over $3.50 a drive.

Looks like the Mushkin Enhanced ECO3 480GB is a Newegg Shell Shocker today for $99.

Silicon Motion SM2256 controller, TLC flash. Decent listed speeds.

I ended up paying $143 shipped with my Amazon Rewards Visa (VISA30) code applied.

Got a few SSD's from Amazon today. Not sure what I'm going to do with them yet but it can't hurt to have more.

The MX300 was a good deal, Sandisk had the Ultra II 480GB for $95 and with the $30 visa discount it made things even cheaper.

The "deal" inventory on that one is gone, it's now back up to $240.

The sequential write speed sucks by comparison, but if the stated specs are correct, and to be believed, the random R/W numbers are the same for the MLC S60 version, for $41 with shipping: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=0D9-0021-00005.

Silicon Power Slim S55 2.5" 120GB SATA III TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Newegg via ebay

$32.99 + $0.99 ship

120GB TLC SSD.

Here's my benchmark of it.

 

[zposter]

Quite respectable. Not much slower than my Samsung 850 Pro.

480GB MLC (BX100-equivalent) for ~$95.

Nice. Not that I need any more SSD's at this point but would be nice to see prices failing.

I know. I'm really all set for them but I can't help but look at them and stroke my chin. Keep thinking how it might be nice to upgrade the sub 500gb ones to 500gb ones. Meanwhile I am using like 10% of them and have no space problems at all.

How reliable a company is Jet?
I ordered two last Friday and was supposed to get them in 2-5 business days shipping from Dell.com. But just got an email saying the order has been delayed only saying I will get an email when they ship.
They can't tell me if I'll get them in a week or a month or when.
A 240gb for less than $50 seems like a good deal, but should I wait on these or cancel the order and keep my eyes open for the next deal that comes along?

First time i saw this thread I laugh but I went ahead read a little and s55 120gb drive for 33 shipped isn't bad I bought two of them to give away and turn old computers fast. But 500gb for 95. Why not get 850 Evo for 135?
Only 1 purchase from jet.(best price and fast ship Bob century xl 315$) I think it's more dell fault then jet they didnt know either. I'm sure will ship soon or give u credit etc..
