It's $191 -$40 MIR, to be more specific.

My interneting may have gotten really bad, I don't even see where you can add something to the cart on that page. They try like hell to get you to advertise it, but I can't find where to actually buy the thing. Maybe registration is necessary?

I recently purchased bot the 120GB and 240GB versions of the Force GT. No complaints so far. Fast.

You have to click through to Amazon, then choose buying direct from Amazon to get the deal. Then also get the rebate from them too, to make a true "deal."

If I didn't already have an SSD in my machine all these recent deals would have won me over!

Same deal page shows Newegg straight up $164, no MIR, which is still a great $/GB price.

Amazon still has the $192 price available if you check all sellers, but '2-5 week' shipping time (ime Amazon's delayed shipping time is always sooner than stated) which means they have temporarily run out. The question is, and I didnt' check the rebate terms, what happens if you receive the item after the 'required submit date.'

Anyway, the Amazon deal is the best $/GB I've seen for a synchronous Sandforce drive, and the Newegg price is within $.02 of the best I've seen.

I've got a 120 GB Corsair Force GT SSD (SATA III) in my gaming PC. It works very well.

I put a 120 GB Corsair Force SSD (SATA II) in my notebook. It made an amazing difference in performance compared to a 7200 rpm 2½" Seagate hard-drive.

I put a 120 GB Corsair Force SSD (SATA II) in my desktop PC. It bricked completely without warning after a few months of operation. Corsair gave me the runaround before finally agreeing to an RMA. They took much longer than promised to return the drive to me. The replacement drive that they sent me was defective. :(

My latest SSD purchase was a 128 GB Samsung 830.
