Hi there

Guys some key points as to why you really need one of these:-

  • This is the 2E model, much higher quality components, I've checked our history, 1644 units sold and only 28 units back faulty. Sub 2% failure which is in line with Intel and Samsung.
  • The performance improvement for any desktop or laptop over a 7200rpm HDD is night and day, remember SSD have 0.1ms access time.
  • These are the peak of SATA2 performance, they offer close to 300MB Read/Write on SATA3 and outperform a lot of modern SSD drives.
  • 120GB is more than big enough for Win7/Win8 O.S. with Office with ample space to spare for games, photos etc.
  • Price, simply unbelievable, cheapest in the UK for a 120GB SSD and this is still a top performance drive.
  • Limited quantity, we only have 1400 units, once gone OCZ have no more and we've sold 400+ over night.
  • Just buy it, I mean £40, thats like the amount you generally carry in your pocket!
  • One more thing - BUY NOW!!! :D :D :D

Yes but I don't like pre-order because I going to work programme 4th September onwards, so I probably won't be at home all day. I prefer it shipped on next day if I order now, so I will know it will come next day when I am in the house for delivery signature.

Nice deal Gibbo. I had 2 SSD's here Vertex 2E bigfoot and never had any single problem for 2 years now.

I have the bigfoot version of this (have had for at least a year, nearly 2) which I paid £180 for(!)and it has never caused me a single issue. At this price it's a steal. I may have to get another couple for my games/photo editing drives. Oooh, but how to justify it to the missus!

Same here I had 2 x 120GB Vertex 2E bigfoot for 2 years now and it never had any single issue on my pc even in Raid0 too. Very good bigfoot SSD. Brought it from OCUK in 2010 around £157.99 each.
 
So if i swap the hadd in my laptop for one of these will i have to use the restore DVDs i made when i first got the laptop as obviously the restore partition is on the HDD

And would it install with being a different hdd?

The fastest is obviously the kingston as long as you are running sata 3. If not then it probably wont matter too much.

Would still be worth running the kingston in the desktop as you can always get a sata 3 controller card to get the extra throughput.
 
desktop will be sata 3 (asus P6X58D-E mobo just havnt updated sig yet) so the kingston will go in desktop then thanks.

tho at this price i am very tempted to order 2 of them, 1 for lappy and one for apps/games in desktop with the kingston as the boot drive...arr must stop spending!

Kingston for boot and apps. OCZ for games and some storage.

I have got a Crucual M4 for my boot drive and apps and that Kingston for games. Works well. :)
 
Trying to convince my step dad to fit one of these to his aging dell vostro 1500, its woefully slow, constantly being held up by the hdd. Will have to ghost his current drive as the serial for vista is worn off the sticker!
