I wonder if they'll pull a stunt like this again?

Depending on the price as long as it doesn't crap in its pants like early ssd s and need reformatted yearly to retain 50% of its "new" performance its a godsend to those wgod otherwise opt out of a ssd.

Kingston and PNY pulled a doozy they'll never recover from. Send samples for review and switch out the parts for the consumer to buy. "What you thought you bought, but didn't".

Yeah, I got ripped with the v300, I'm not buying from Kingston any more.

Most of the desktop pc's are not using at least one 5 1/4 drive bays. Why don't a manufacturer think to build a cheap 5 1/4 SSD. Quantum made Bigfoot HDD before and sell it at past. Also the drive can be combined with a slim DVD or Bluray player or can be sold as bundle.
Just think about it.

Just think about it.

Making the drive in a 2.5 inch form factor means that with a drive caddy it can fit in any sized bay. They are not limited to customers only wanting it in larger drive bays.

I can see it now. A year from today there will be a lot more competition in the 1TB< SSD market. That means dirt cheap SSDs, and the slow and painful death of Hard Drives, which has been going on for a little while now.
