Samsung 830 SSD -- 128GB: $109.99

Fri May 18, 2012 5:36 am

TR-approved SSD, Newegg listed at $119.99, now available for $109.99 with coupon code EMCNEJB27
(That's .86/GB for a quality non-Sandforce drive)

YIKES!

That's a lovely price for a lovely drive. If you're in the market for an SSD, I don't think you could go wrong with this.

Not to change the subject, but while I was notifying my brother about this deal, I was going to throw in a reference to the Agility 3 120GB since it USED to be really cheap. (I've seen it for as low as $85) Now its $200....WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PRICES ON THE AGILITY 3 AND VERTEX 3?

Holy smokes! That's a great deal! I just bought this drive about a month ago for $150 and that was $20 off during a newegg sale. :o

Just bought the Samsung 830 128GB for $109. Then noticed the deal on Intel 330 series 180 GB for $139.99 (after MIR). Even better deal (price/GB) for the Intel.

Got one for my boss's personal laptop. He's totally sold on SSDs after I built him a machine with a Kingston.

I'd be in for one too, if I didn't already have an SSD or a budget.
