In early 2011 we prophesized the extremely successful SF-1200 SATA II controller wouldn't die off easily and we backed that up with a review of the new SanDisk Ultra just last week. At the time of writing the SanDisk Ultra 240GB costs 301 Dollars at Newegg, a good value for a product based on mature technology and high speed 3Xnm flash.

After that article went live we learned of an even greater value, on a faster product and from one of the most trusted solid state drive resellers in the business. My Digital Discount has just uncovered a stash of OCZ Vertex LE drives and together with TweakTown will be selling them for less than a Dollar per GB!
