Also very interested, possibly even in the X range if they are really up to it.

Another option maybe that 2xOCZ 30GB V2 are cheaper and faster?

I know they have perceived issues, but buying a decent RAID card will eliminate most of them and it will still be cheaper!

I have been testing them for while now and really haven't found all the problems other people seem to be having..... :confused:

I want to put it in a MacBook, so I'm looking for one drive.

I wonder how much these are going to cost.

Wow. Just read the very good review (imo) over at AnandTech. I didn't really know much about SSD but it's impressive stuff! Anyone that wants a good read, go here:-

26th eh? My birthday is on the 28th, so perhaps I should start dropping hints to my friends and family

Wow! ANd they're early in their life as well, the future looks good for standard HDD replacements.

I shall be keeping an eye out for prices for sure.

Whether it's accurate there are prices around £500 on the net atm for these drives, wow
