    It looks like a great deal, it's just a shame I need a 160GB or 180GB drive when I eventually move to SSD

    Doubt the average user would notice the difference in IOP count, the 330 looks a great buy.

Done some quick figuring and you're talking about less than a tenner difference between a 180GB 330 from Amazon and a 180GB 520 from Scan (free shipping with Hexus, and minus the Intel cashback).

    Re: News - Intel 330 SSD pricing and specification revealed

    Not too shabby, though all the bumph about setting a new mark for the price of SSD's that's been floating around is a wee bit OTT. If you keep your eyes open you can get a 120GB Mushkin Chronos SSD (550MB read/515MB write/90,000IOPs) for 5p shy of £100, just wish I had the cash to spare (for either one, I guess I'll just have to put up with my current SSD).
