If price was your number one consideration then it's a good deal. But those rated speeds are very low compared to the RunCore drives. If I was in the market for a 32GB drive, I would spend the extra $30. |

I came across those as well, but as was said, those speeds are terrible. 1/2 the read and 1/3 the write performance. |

I also came across one from Buffalo but could not find a place to buy it. Patriot Memory has one for the Asus EEE and should have the Dell Mini version out soon. Now don't anybody but a SSD till i do because I know the day I do, all the prices will go down by at least one third. |

If you would rather save money, Crucial has a 32GB drive. http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs ... C5A5CA7304 |

Not so good? heh, you will hate life!  I had an SSD with that kind of performance. MyDigitalDiscount used to sell them.. They were so bad they discontinued selling them. |

Just FYI I chatted with someone from MyDigitalDiscount yesterday and they told me that they should be restocking the 32 and 64 GB drives mid to late next week. I'm holding out for a 64 GB for my wife's new Mini (that she doesn't even know she has yet). Dwayne |
