I submitted a price match from another US retailer for this SSD a few hours ago and just checked to find they have matched the price

Sequential Read speeds of up to 430 MB/s and Write speeds of up to 300 MB/s

Make sure you pay in USD with a 28 Degree's Card, Bankwest Zero Platinum or Citbank Plus Visa Debt Card to get the $104 Price.

Cheapest Price Ever according to Camel X 3

Excellent reviews for this SSD 4.8/5 star rating.

    is it SATA II compatible?

    • easternculture on 27/07/2015 - 20:27

      yes, sata is always backward compatible with previous versions

      According to Wikipedia, all SATA II are compatible with all SATA III, and vice versa.
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA
      SATA 3 Gbit/s and SATA 6 Gbit/s are compatible with each other. Most devices which are only SATA 3 Gbit/s can connect with devices that are SATA 6 Gbit/s, and vice versa, though SATA 3 Gbit/s devices only connect with SATA 6 Gbit/s devices at the slower 3 Gbit/s speed.

        …While making little to no real-world difference.
        An article of interest

          If your real-world is opening and closing applications. However, you can also simply leave the computer on and ready to go, negating the benefits of SSD over HDD.

          @twocsies: 100's of benefits. I became an addict, even paying $200+ for 60GB.

          There's No Going Back!

  • nerd1 on 27/07/2015 - 20:24

    sigh… not quite ready for a new build ….. what to do

      Don't panic. Have you seen how much prices have dropped, across the board, lately?

      Cheap & fast options for all.

  • squeeb on 27/07/2015 - 20:52

    Good price. Says that a newer version will be in stock on 31 July - PNY 240 GB CS1211.

    I would consider http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00T5EEI8W/ref=psdc_1292116011_t1_B…
    This has better specs for extra 12 USD.

    Cheers

    I just want a bargain 500 gb

    Make sure you pay in USD with a 28 Degree's Card or Citbank Plus Visa Debt Card to get the $104 Price.

    Doesn't have to be just those 2 cards.

    • dazweeja on 28/07/2015 - 17:41

      Apart from those two cards and the Bankwest Zero Platinum, there would be very few cards that would get you close to $AUD104. Nearly all charge a foreign transaction fee for a start. His recommendation is a good one (although he should include the Bankwest).

  • RickyNelson on 28/07/2015 - 10:23

    Why Amazon says OLD MODEL?

    This is rather slow compared to other SSDs.

    • Utopian on 29/07/2015 - 15:58

      This is rather cheap compared to other SSDs.

      • Lukian on 29/07/2015 - 16:06

        430MB/s write from $113 - http://www.staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=240G+SSD&sp…
        8.6% more price for 43% more write performance.

        470MB/s write from $127 (and 16GB extra storage) - http://www.staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=256G+SSD&sp…
        22% more price (14% if scaling the storage amount) for 56% more write performance.

        If you aren't seeking an SSD for performance, then what - reliability?

        I also didn't say it wasn't cheaper than other SSDs. It likely has a market segment target at this price point.

        • Utopian on 29/07/2015 - 18:29

          Hopefully you don't buy a car just based on top speed.

          There are many that buy SSD to spice-up a SATAII limited machine. Cheapest SSD is often the best.

          @Utopian: And there is the market segment. Good suggestion for those still on sata2.

        • Lukian on 30/07/2015 - 00:17

          @Utopian: If a car was 43% more effective at its task, I would absolutely pay 8.6% more for it.

        • Utopian on 30/07/2015 - 22:00

          @Lukian: We can go on forever… but thankfully all the reviews show that top speed & synthentic benchmarks tell the story… SSD is the important factor. Once it's installed, everything-else is a bottleneck.
