Quote from carbonfiber : anyone know how long the email take?

I'm wondering too. I'm waiting and ready to pull the trigger. Just need the $10 off code. lol

I just got my M4 256GB from Amazon yesterday. I upgraded from an Intel 320 120GB drive, and I can't tell the difference in everyday activities. I would imagine the same could be said of upgrading from any SSD to a faster SSD you won't notice a difference.

If you need a fast SSD at a reasonable cost, the M4 is great. The Samsung is probably even better, but I would wait for it to drop cheaper if you can. Otherwise, go for it! Especially if you're coming from a spindle HD.

Quote from djuneth : I clicked on share and save (facebook/twitter) tab on the right and get $10off$50 on this page: http://www.buydig.com/shop/produc...PSA3400ISG That would bring this down to $115 = $0.90/gb.

Was there a generic code? Or a custom one? They have a coupon page and it seems they use generic codes. Would you share it?

Quote from yarnim : so are all these people crying how samsung and this drive is on par with M4, how its overrated, still expensive and all that just trying to make themselves feel better for buying an inferior product at this price previously?

I bought the M4 for $200...this is $40 more and from most reports, looks about the same.

No crying here. Given the option I would opt for $40 more in my pocket and still a solid reputation SSD.

Quote from Emjay : Apple is overpriced. The more profits they have the more they rip people off. Higher markups=taking advantage of their customers. Apple Occupy Wall Street forecast Apple to hit over $300 per share, meaning they mark up their products unfairly. Why can't they be a non-profit, that will be the day.

Why should a private company be a non-profit? Most companies are formed to make money and it would appear most people are happy with their products as they sell millions. There are plenty of other cheaper, less popular phones, tablets, etc. in the market.

don't give up! got it to work. Use the email option and email it to your self. You have to email three accounts. I emailed all three of my accounts and then clicked on the link from one account. It took me to the buydig site and nothing happened.

I tried the 2nd account and then it prompted me with the $5 off offer, and then I got an auto email to my account with the $10 offer. It only took mins once I found out I had to try the links in two of my three accounts I had it emailed.
