64GB kingston v100 $60 AR

[cubeless]

Why is that better? Buy.com participates in various cashback deals.

comes with the xfer sw (supposed to do the win 7 alignment correctly on xfer) and the enclosure for the old drive...

should have said 'better deal if u want the other stuff'...

ne now has the 64gb kit for $60 ar... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-421-_-Product even better deal...

Ya, better deal with the external 2.5 case and all the goodies. FatCash is 1.5% (meh..) at Newegg.

 

[overst33r]

That was a previous deal.

It's back on!

Less than $1GB is a good deal for me!

Awesome. In for another 1. Great drive.

These drives should not be more than $40 IMO :d

Go whine about it elsewhere, please.

Music CD's shouldn't cost $15
Ipads shouldn't cost $500

The price is what the market will bear, not what they "should" be.

Have this drive installed as a boot for W7 - it's plenty fast.

Anyone use this for a Ubuntu 11.04 OS disk? Just wondering how it is....

Spend a few dollars more and get the newer controller, and 96gb.

I've had WoW installed on both the 64GB and the 96GB Kingston SSDs and haven't experienced this problem (first time I've heard about it, actually).

If using the 64 or 96GB drive, is it necessary to switch to AHCI mode? Is IDE mode ok? The reason I ask is because my Gigabyte motherboard actually takes longer to boot under AHCI mode. Also, since the 96GB has its own aggressive technology for removing garbage, is it necessary to disable TRIM?

Set your BIOS for AHCI mode, and don't disable TRIM.

Good find, how do you see it as $60 though? I see it as $65.

Newegg upped the before rebate price.

So I was pumped, my 2 96gb drives arrive today, or so I thought! Instead I get a (paper back no less) book titled "Juice Fasting & Detoxification" WTF.

Amazon is over night'ing the right order.. supposedly lets hope I get them this time.

Maybe they're trying to tell you something

I pulled the trigger yesterday as it was the last day for the rebate. I hope I get drive and not a book

IDE mode, lol. Yes, use AHCI. Also no need to disable TRIM.

 

[fastman]

Never mind, it's late and I read it wrong

 

[fastman]

Where can I get the rebate form since Newegg removed it now?

 

[fastman]

Nevermind I found it

I don't have this one but I have the corsair M4 SSD which works fine. Also have an Intel SSD which works pretty fast too.
