Ends 2/2 at 8AM PT. eBay with BuyDig.com has the Samsung 840 Series MZ-7TD500KW 2.5" 500GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive for $300 with free shipping. Features up to 540 MB/s max sequential read and up to 330 MB/s max sequential write speeds.
Good price no doubt but I'd rather get four 128 Gb drives instead for between $280 - $320 and RAID them, I'd have a total transfer rate of a little over 2.2 gbps. Paired with a 2600K or 3770K, boot seconds will be in single digits. It would also be future-proof.
