Interesting how they're lowering prices on the high capacity 500gb and low capacity 120gb, but not so much on the much more popular mid cap 250gb.

Shmeagle I would rather have a 500 gb anyway. Good to see the prices coming down. Hoping this fall the 6th gen Intel chips, Windows 10, HD, and SSD prices will align for a great deal on a great lappy.

I've had this exact drive in my computer and don't have any issues with it. I guess there's a lot of negativity about them being TLC rather than MLC. YMMV.

Yeah, and then there's a monthly fee... No thanks!!! Before long, people like myself will be paying $200/mo just to own and operate a computer with the software required to do my job...
