Vertex 4 128GB 80$ on Newegg

[nafoni]

To you lucky Americans out there: get the Vertex 4 128GB for 80$ while it's on sale. Stumbled across this when making a build for some guy.

Close this post when the sale is over.

The Vertex 4 is considered as one of the best SSDs out there (especially after a firmware update). If you already have a computer or are currently gathering parts for a new build - GET THIS NOW before it's out of stock.

@nafoni: not american?

in canada, newegg is being cheap and is giving us a agility 4 256gb for 149.99. id rather pay 20 dollars more for a crucial m4 256gb

I'm Norwegian. American prices can really make me wish I was American 😛

 

[TheBigTroll]

oh ok. we get near american prices in canada. sometimes cheaper (never cheap enough to be compared to microcenter instore deals 🙁 )

I'm waiting for a 128/120GB SSD for $50-$60. With the way prices are falling, that's only a few months off.

 

[TheBigTroll]

you should be seeing that by christmas (boxing day (dec 26 in Ontario, Canada)is like black friday in the states)

 

[obsama1]

Cyber Monday too. But Newegg has a ton of deals during Nov.-Dec. I would not go to a store during BF just to pick up an SSD, LOL.

IF you've never tried to manage a small C drive in windows, prepare for agony. A 240GB SSD is in the $160 range. Over the life of the drive you'll really be glad you opted for something larger.

The current free fall in prices is in part the flash memory price falling. Smaller drives still need the controller, so even as flash price continues to drop don't expect too much more room for small drive price drops. (just like you never see $20 spinning hard drives, instead they stabilized at $50-$75 and just upped the size)

Or get 2 of these drives and get 256GB instead... : 0

HDD prices are still a tad inflated. IIRC, a few years ago, a 1TB was about $80. Now you can get a 500GB for that much. And how much does the controller cost? Is it a lot?

i got a 240gb on sale. more than enough storage for me.
