Omg that's an insane deal!

 

[painejake]

So tempted to get this on Monday if they still have it!

Thats a bargain!

 

[MrBish]

I'm just ordering it now. I'm not chancing to miss out on a deal like this lol

 

[SieB]

Them prices keep on dropping, I reckon 120gb SSDs will bottom out around £60 soon and 60gbs for £40.

 

[dipzy]

Epic prices

, even the 240gb are dropping to around £165, i still remember when i bought a 64GB Kingston Sata 2 SSD for £153 when SSD were still being released. I thinks my next one will be a 240GB so i can dash more programs on it

It's crazy how fast SSD's are falling. It seems like every week £2-3 is being knocked off the prices.

Makes me really happy. Maybe I can get a nice sized SSD for my laptop.

noticed this myself and was gonna post, but beat me to it

 

[MrBish]

I don't think this is a price drop, but price drops are definitely happening. This is just a weekend offer I think. But I can't wait for the days when SSD's are constantly this price

I was just going to post this linkage. Buying myself 1 just because.

Got a feeling there's a reason coming.

 

[J0s3e]

Reason? I want to know!

 

[Jadarite]

That is a very good deal so i've just bought two of them for £129.98 + p&p £4.79 = £134.77

Reason for what?

beat me to it! just came to post that now lol. But GREAT deal! Shame I paid £85 for my mushkin.

 

[Rastalovich]

Reason for what?

Component prices usually take a dive when something's about to happen.

Especially in the UK, every effort is made to squeeze cash out of consumers, on a general basis. When something like this comes along, and Aria were showing slashed ssd prices last month or so, something tends to be coming.

Maybe a higher capacity is about to be more mass produced and they don't feel they can't make the rpp much/any higher than the highest priced ssds at the moment... so.. there's a domino effect with the lower capacity drives' prices.

Price has mainly gone from £1/G+ to close to £0.6/G within months.

 

[Gilbert93]

Just bought one myself, at that price how could you not

 

[Scoob]

Nice. We had a topic on this some time back but now it looks like the higher-end drive prices are coming down too! I'm tempted to buy that's for sure, but saving for my WC build first.

Scoob.

 

[nepas]

Had to order one for that price!

 

[SubTract]

if only Australia had reasonably priced electronics

 

[chudley]

that has prompted me to buy one as well, so it looks like a fresh install for me this week. Not done that in ages any top tips for SSDs?
