Thursday, September 13, 2012 - by Seth Colaner
Just a few years ago, could you imagine snagging a good SSD for fifty bucks? Well here it is: LogicBuy found a new 120GB OCZ Vertex 2 SSD on Newegg for $49.99 after $30 instant savings and a $20 mail-in rebate. Shipping is free, to boot.



LogicBuy notes that this price tag is a good $15 less than any other deal like this they’ve seen and $20 less than any other price they can currently find. Do yourself a favor and snag one of these OCZ SSDs before September 19th, when the deal expires.

Wow - that's a great price. If I hadn't just purchased an SSD a few months ago I would snap one of these up!

That is a friggin' good deal.

SATA-II (3GB sec) speed is still a heck of a lot faster than a platter drive.

I purchased a 100GB Vertex 2($400) way back in June of 2010.It has Intel 34nm NAND.

It first saw duty in an Asus P5Q-E desktop then an LG notebook where it performed flawlessly on the SATA II bus.

Now it resides inside a caddy in the optical bay of an MSI gaming notebook.In the MSI the bios needs to be set on RAID for the Vertex 2 to be recognized on a cold boot.Setting the bios to RAID has all 3 disks as non member in the Intel Raid Utility OROM.

It just keeps on ticking.

Versions of the Vertex 2 with Hynix 32nm and Intel 25nm NAND have had performance and failure issues.

Hopefully,the newest 25nm manufactured units are a lot better.
