  Great price!
  
  If you think there's a chance you'll upgrade your motherboard or get a new laptop/PC - this is more future proof with the SATA 3 tech to use with compatible 'boards.

  Bear in mind Novatech do 3% TCB/Quidco, which makes it £77.58 there.

  True, but a lot of people prefer Amazon as a retailer. Personally I bought this from Novatech as they were cheapest when you take into account next day delivery (yeah, I'm impatient). Coming tomorrow, quite looking forward to it actually :).

  I think I'd spend a few extra pounds and get the Crucial M4 (£83 now at Amazon and eBuyer), but it's a tight call. My fingers are definitely getting very itchy though.

  I have both the m4 and this and I actually found this boots Windows slightly faster (2-3s), I only noticed it after I set up my mechanical RAID array. When only the ssd was installed I noticed no difference, no idea why that happened. I think this benches slightly faster also but its marginal and the m4 has a proven track record while this is relatively new in comparison. Apples and oranges I guess.

  This is faster, speed is king ;).

  My SanDisk Extreme arrived today, all I can say is wow...
  
  Even using a SATA2 connection it still gets 7.7 in the Windows Experience Index (out of a maximum of 7.9, for those of you who aren't familiar with the WEI).

  I'm really tempted for the SanDisk Ultra - but not sure how much these prices will drop further :(

  I may have spoken too soon, but there haven't been many (any?) decent SSD deals this week...
