    Never bad news to hear that price is coming down lol. I can't see putting out the kind of money they currently want on those things....just not worth it to me.

    Its impressive. The intel SDD's were the only ones worth getting. Now they are faster and cheaper.

    Not an Intel, still, all I know is my OCZ Vertex made a WORLD of difference in Dalaran.

    All the SSDs I've seen have been 2.5" size, so just buy a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter, like this...

    I used a piece of velcro and attached it inside my case. The darn things are so light that velcro is overkill.

    I didn't even bother with velcro, just tossed the sucker in the case and closed her up, baddabing baddaboom.
