New SSD hard drives - anyone got one?
Hi,

Has anyone got a SSD drive? Are they any good? Just got sent this link by a friend - wondering if they are up to much, or if its just a load of hype?

1) That guy in the video really needs to get a life.
2) If you want to pay $800 for just 128GB then go for it!
3) They are silent and fast - depends how much spare cash you have to burn.

So about £600 - ouch! Maybe I'll wait til they go down in price a bit ;)

Thanks for the reply btw.

Cheers
