    Why are SSD prices so variable? You'll have a 32GB for $500 one day, and 60GB for $200 a week later, only to be followed by the $500 one again?

    Sweet. For 600GB of SSD storage at only $200, I'm in for 20.

    These have the Indilinx controllers, much better than JMicron ones.

    #2 I guess it's kind of like the price difference between 7200prm and 10k rpm and 15k rpm disk drives?

    FWIW, the Summit Series is quite different than the Agility series (different generations and thus, different performance.)

    The Indilinx controllers make a big difference - especially with TRIM support (or for non-Windows 7 users, auto-GC).

    Typos aside, this is a pretty good price.

    If you check on pricespider.com, you'll see that the price of this drive has gone up, not down. Bummer.
