How about something like: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227743
$749 normally ($550 currently, including free shipping)
$844 from my local computer store, if I want the 4 year "instant product replacement" (if it goes, they get me a brand new model).

A 480GB SSD, with 1,500MB/sec read and 1,250MB/sec write.
And as a single drive, it supports TRIM.
