This can and should be used by you to post updated deal information.
Be sure to read this because it may contain answers to your questions!

There is something wrong with OCZ's latest firmware 1.50. Beware of your drive dying out within the first month of usage. See their forums for many users reporting similar issues.

When using a drive like this (trim-supporting), remember to run a wiper utility once in a while. If you download "patched_wiper.exe" from the OCZ forums, it will run and close itself with no user input. Set Windows Scheduler to run it once a week. It takes a minute or less to run, and it does improve speeds.

Bing cashback at 2% for Newegg, save an extra $2.

Several combo's with this with free shipping.

Deal is also alive at CompUSA for $73.49 after $30 MIR and $11.50 Bing (good for those Californians who get raped on taxes at NewEgg)

Nice deal, but the whole 1 rebate per address thing kinda sux. I was thinking about submitting with work or my gf's address, but this statement on rebate form make it even tougher:

The address on your rebate
application must match the billing address on the receipt, packing slip or
invoice. Limit (1) rebate(s) per person, billing address, company,
household and receipt/invoice/packing slip during eligibility period,
except where prohibited by law. Only one rebate application per
envelope.

katncaed What goes here? Member sinceDec 2007 Posts1,939 LocationG'vegas, NC Reputation 4,444	Some people have posted that they have troubles getting Win7 to install on a 30GB. It's not that it won't fit, it's that the OS itself seems not to recognize a drive that small as a possibility of being installed on...although I have no idea...just repeating what I've read...

FWIW I've submitted an OCZ rebate that had different billing and shipping addresses and still received the rebate. However if they choose to deny your rebate they would have a valid reason since it's explicitly stated.

about 18 Gigs by itself for Pro. Microsoft says ■16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
You're not going to be able to do any XP mode with it alone

From a Newegg reviewer it was 7.4. I don't think you should buy new PC features by that rating alone though.
