£133 for a 32GB Indilinx SLC drive is very reasonable. The 64GB version is only £10 more than the Crucial M225 aswell.

Yep, it's a great price.

Probably on old pic, here are the current speeds:

16GB - 200/120 MB/s
32GB - 240/190 MB/s
64/128GB - 250/200 MB/s

There only seems to be one place doing these and the price of the 64Gb is at £209.30inc vat. I'm assuming the price has increased since this thread started, or the price of Crucial 64Gb has dropped

Yeah the 64GB price has gone up £30.. the 32GB price is still the same though.

Still the cheapest SLC's I've seen and they should be good performers too.

I've just worn out my SLC drive after 18 months solid usage (no pun intended ) so would be very wary going MLC.
