/sigh Where was this last when I bought my Wildfire =/

These all have terrible reviews. No wonder they're so cheap.

There's a reason why they are trying to get rid of all these... just look at the reviews.

Be happy with you Wildfire... hopefully it won't crap out.

the reviews for these drives are mixed. what do you guys think?

Sweet deal!! Thanks OP!!

Check out the Vertex 3 Max IOPS Edition [newegg.com] for $157 after discount/rebate. 4 out of 5 eggs on this one.

Now, this is why I've refused to get an SSD. Performance, longevity, and price point is just not there yet. I love this price though, about 82cents a GB.

Has OCZ came out with a firmware to solve all their issues or is this a hardware issue that just can't be fixed? It looks like OCZ is the new Seagate.

Damn. Didn't make it in before the TCing began.

OCZ just released their 2.15 firmware. I've been keeping an eye on their forum, and everyone who had enough technical knowledge to upgrade the firmware reports the end of BSOD so far. Not sure if they've found their silver bullet, but I sure hope so.

See my post.

Also, I have one of these running with P8Z68-V Pro, 16GB Corsair Vengeance, ATI FirePro (I forget the number) video card with Win 7 Pro x64, with no hiccups at all currently running FW 2.13.

I see that people have a lot of problems with these but I've been personally running Agility 2 and Vertex 2 60gb's for the past 6 months to year with no issues. I guess you're rolling the dice with these. Still would rather take these over the Kingston's at $1/gb or less.

Yeah, by the time I was ready with my post I did one last search and saw that someone beat me to that one and also the Agility 3 60gb.

Due to its terrible quality and reliability reported by customers, OCZ should be banned from US market!!

I just dont see the advantage in an SSD for my PC. The positive reviews are all about faster boot times, silent operation and longevity. But are these really that big a deal to spend 4-8 times the price of a sata drive?

Me want...but I just bought a 30GB one and a laptop and the wife may start to complain...
