Cheap!

Cheap, but the Kingston SSDNow series drives consistently rate near the bottom when compared to other SSDs. They also had a nasty bug where they lose data. A new firmware is out that is supposed to address the data loss bug though.

Crap! I paid 19 cents above the amount posted above. I better send it back.

Kingston sent my rebate check lightning fast too, compared to other rebate places.

Just about 5 1/2 weeks from start to finish!

By the way, I loaded Windows Server 2011 on this baby and it is extremely quick. It puts my Server 2008 computer to shame!

docbrazen, thanks for that tidbit of info. I'll look for the firmware update to see if I can get mine patched!
