Been waiting for this drive to get to 50c/GB for a while now and its finally on special for presidents day week in the US, probably heaps of other stuff available too.

Other capacities on special
750GB $399 ($468.54 AUD with shipping)
500GB $299 ($353.47 AUD with shipping)
250GB $145.99 ($177.41 AUD with shipping)
120GB $80.99 ($102.62 AUD with shipping)

Shipped price is using Amazons AUD conversion which isnt the best rate, so you'll probably get it a little cheaper again paying in USD.

    I dont know anything about the drive being superseeded by the Pros. The Pros were meant to just be a more premium product with a price to match.
    More info at this review http://www.anandtech.com/show/7173/samsung-ssd-840-evo-revie…

    Its almost about the time of the year that Samsung would be rolling out a new version, so I would expect to see something faster in a couple of months back up around the $850 mark.

    I think EVO is more like a replacement for the original Samsung 840 series, whereas 840 PRO is an update to the older Samsung 830 series.

    No - pros are faster but don't go up to 1tb. I wouldn't see them as a direct replacement.

    Pros are MLC, EVOs are TLC.

    MLC lasts longer and generally performs better, but for most applications it isn't a huge deal.

    For anyone counting, the Crucial M500 is MLC too.

  What does "single unit version" mean? As opposed to what?
