Err off the top of my head I got hold of a Kingston HyperX 120gb SSD for £60

Recent ones would have to be the brand new 3930K I got for £320 delivered or the HP Proliant ML110 G7 that came in at £129.99 after cashback. Historically speaking ofc the 600GB Velociraptor I snagged for £170 was a steal (at the time).
