Coincidentally, I was looking at the 120gb version earlier as a boot source for my OS. The problem is, I don't really want to be waiting 2 months to build my PC. All my parts should be purchased by a week or two. Such a shame at a great price.

Great price, hot!

been told OCZ Toshiba are selling off there drive part of there set up as they a loosing money fast but not from the drives part of the place hope they keep the waranty with this item hmm looks good


TY OP nice find

Saw it for £60 yesterday. Good find.

Why is there such a long dispatch date? I'm so use to seeing everything dispatched by Amazon being next day or is it coming from overseas?

OK, thanks for that. This is a pre order item then.

good find op, heat added

Nice find , will order, thanks op.

144 heat. must be 100 orders so far. amazon should get delivery from supplier sooner.

This or is it just worth paying extra for a Samsung Evo 850?

Sammy evo

Nice price but seems to be some relibility issues on some recent reviews

At the bottom of the Amazon page it say's
There is a newer model of this item:
TOSHIBA - OCZ SSD TL100 SERIES SATAIII 240GB READ 550 WRITE 530 85K IOPS TLC £86.07
so im guessing Amazon is looking to acquire some stock clearance at a cheaper price. So its wait and win for me.

is this worth ordering or is there a chance there will be another price drop soon?

I went through flubit for 2% off and says delivery will be in a few weeks.. will see :smiley:

Never personally had any issues with OCZ SSD's, pre or post Toshiba take over.

Surely a steal at the price anyway.

When a reputable company take over another the they bring in there own quality control principles ,as they have even put there own name with OCZ this shows they believe in the quality now?

They revised the timescale down to 1-4 weeks this morning, but now it's showing 1-2 months again. If it doesn't come in the next couple of weeks I'll just get the Sandisk one for £12 more.

Owner of 2 OCZ (2nd and 3rd Gen) and a Toshiba myself and had no problem so far. It maybe myself playing with fire, but I would get another one, specially at this price

Good price for this. Bought one.

They do but it doesn't mean they order from amazon, delivery date is 8-10th Feb.

THanks, it make sense. The SSD is basically only going to have Windows on it while the WD black will hold the games

I find the OCZ drives very poor. First one had windows 7 on it with very minimal use 5months and used 1 day a week. Drive failed! This was replaced and with Windows 10 install it had very little use approximately 80hours and the drive failed!l just out of warranty! Very poor drive but was a lot faster than traditional hdd s

Forgot to say mine was a OCZ petrol 128gb and replaced with a OCZ vertex 128gb.


My new drive is a Samsung ssd which is still working...

If you wait long enough, the price of this should reach £100 at this rate.

Have a look at the Warehouse deals as I snagged a 500GB 850 Evo for £85.

I wondered what was going on. Been after a 120gb for a few weeks hoping a £20er comes along again from my memory like I've had in the past but everything 120gb seems to be north of £35 now

snares this. thanks op :smiley:

I'll take a go at this. Been looking for a new hard drive for my laptop.
Estimated Delivery Date is between 22 Feb - 23 Mar.
Let's see how it goes.

During the student 20% off deal. Price was still £105 or so pre discount which is a decent deal.

It's 59.97 now, for only 5pound more you can have http://amzn.to/2jOyEL0 in stock

Performance aside, OCZ drives have historically always been bad for reliability. They are owned by Toshiba now but not much has improved. I won't vote either way as you won't find another ~240 drive brand new at this price but be warned.

As an alternative, given the long delay, I'd encourage checking out:

https://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/harddrives-internal/ssdsolidstate/240gbto400gb/hfs250g32tnd-n1a2a.html

Not a well none maker, yet, but these drives are almost as good as Samsung 850s for £20 less. SK Hynix are a huge supplier of internal components and have recently moved into manufacturing their own consumer drives.

Tom's Hardware says "The SL308 we tested today shows a lot of promise in the value-focused storage segment. With some additional firmware tuning, it could be an exceptional product. Though the SL308 doesn't quite dethrone Samsung's 500GB 850 EVO in the performance charts, it comes close"

Now back at ~£55

​my ocz SSD failed yesterday after 2.5 years :disappointed: with very minimal usage in my MBP MID 2012. Now i am after samsung evo as it got 5 year warranty

Mine failed after 3 years, i have two ocz and i spoke to them for replacement they said i should have bought 5 years warranty ones so they couldn't do anything.. SHAME NEVER GO FOR OCZ

I have 480GB Deneva 2 MLC Async in MBP with a minimal usage and it fails!! very sad

Its just my experience :disappointed:
