    Well prices don't seem to have dropped particularly in the last couple of weeks so I reckon now is not a bad time to buy. I suspect we'll see another drop at some point through the year although I think that will be nearer the end of the year, but the massive drop over the last 6 months wasn't sustainable for long!

    Booooooo I was hoping by Christmas we'd have £1/2.5GB

    I just bought my first SSD's but for a backup server (64GB OS drives).

    Must use that CamelCamelCamel website looks really useful!

    So lucky bought my SSD at the right time. Picked up the Samsung 830 256GB for £150. Absolute bargain. Amazing however when you consider this cost £300 last year or so..... Just saying

    prob the £/$ exchange rate partly offsetting the drop too as one went up the other came down! Its still cheaper overall now though

    I have recently taken the SSD plunge - Vertex 4 256 - IT IS AWESOME! spinners are ridiculous when compared to SSD performance, never going to look back!
