Nothing to see here, this is the normal price now. In fact SSD prices have stagnated yet again.

Yes. I regret not buying one at the end of last year.
I'm holding out for a 850 evo 1tb sub £200 but haven't seen much in four months (amazon fr maybe had £199). The amount of times I check now is getting ridiculous. The sandisk doesn't really get me going at £160/170.
Come on Samsung. Help a brother out.

Wow, not too much in it really between the two. I guess it comes down to reliability or personal preference.

Samsung or sandisk ultra II to be pedantic... but nice to have a comparison...

Not entirely fair to make a direct comparison like that though as they're not the same size. I'm sure if you had a Evo 840 in 480Gb the difference would be larger.
That being said, real world use would be unnoticeable differences.

And mine:
I accidentally voted hot on this deal earlier, it's not. As per post #1 this is normal price. I bought mine for £72 a coupla weeks back (ebay 20%)...do I have a time machine? would I pay £90? the answer to both is NO. :neutral_face:

I'm an idiot I'm afraid.
Benchmark results I've posted are wrong - I've turned down my CPU to ratio x16
These are recent results CPU running on the full speed (i5-3470)
