Not that impressed with cost of the 750GB model. In my view the 1050GB needs to be around £150-160 mark to compete with Sandisk and Samsung.
^^ This. SSDs made great leaps in affordability a while back but seem to have stalled despite much greater uptake. I'd love to move from a 250GB to 500 or even 750 but 500GB Samsung 850 Evo is still about a hundred quid, and paying £160 for 750 instead of the 1TB Samsung doesn't compute, especially when the read and write speeds are nothing to get excited about.
Performance appears to be there but like above, it's too much money for a 750gb. I got my Sandisk Ultra II 960gb from Ebuyer with free delivery for just under £160 a few months ago. I really thought SSD prices would have come down further by now.
The 275GB drive could be interesting depending on price. 35GB extra over the 240GB models would be welcome.
I didn't have a very good time with a Crucial SSD the other year. I think I'll continue to stay away. The Samsung SSD's are amazing though.
