MicroCenter has OCZ 128 gig SSD's on sale for $84.99 and you get a $20 rebate from OCZ. I need to upgrade one of my ssd's as it was only a 64 gig drive and I need 77 gigs for the complete Ivory II program. I was only using two of the piano sets, but with theis larger ssd, I'll have all three piano's on the drive.
 
I think $65 bucks for a 128 Gig SSD is a great deal !! They used to be a lot more than that !!!
 
OCZ offers you a faster rebate if you'll accept $18.00. So for two dollars you don't have to wait 2 months. So I got the SSD for $67 after rebate. Still a great deal !!
 
Here's a link to it....

I read some of the reviews that were negative about this ssd, but mine is working perfectly, no problems at all.

I bought one of their 64GB ssd's and it worked great for a while, now it gives me BSOD randomly. Restarting works fine. I even did a fresh install of Win 7 but still at random get BSOD.

I have two 64 gig OCZ's that I've had for over a year and never had any problems with them. I don't put them to heavy use, but just for sound sample programs.

Well I put this new one to the test. I loaded up the full Ivory II program. 77 gigs of sound samples. Opened it up in Sonar and everything played perfectly first try, not one glitch the whole time I was playing. No latency problems at all. Just perfect.

Looking at the reviews, I wonder how long it will last?

I've learned not to believe in negative reviews because what's stopping the disgruntled competitor for posting ?? Nothing. Some people will talk bad about things to make their own product more appealing. My neighbors do this all the time about other neighbors.

My experience with OCZ SSD's has been perfect, no problems at all. That's why I didn't even think twice about buying it.

What took you so long Scott?! 

Did you have a chance to review the OCZ Vertex 4? And not that you're asking, but my OCZ Vertex 3 is doing just fine after a full year of abuse.

LOL funny guy :-) ... nope i am staying away from OCZ..
look all manufacturers have issues from time to time things die just the way it is.
its how they deal with it..

after all this time OCZ hasnt figured out how to do customer service.
the high % of failure of their products (all not just ssd)..

now in all fairness to OCZ they had maasive failure of older sandforce, new is better? of course the drive he linked to is the older..

 i am selling Sandforce drives again, as the newer are supposed to be better but Intel only..
i have advanced replace overnight with them thus happy clients should anything go wrong!
i have had only 1 intel SSD drive die thus far. and my personal 60G OCZ indelix drive is still working as well (someone has that old system of mine for an office boax around here...) but it needs help frequently (trim etc)
