Now THAT is a hot deal but using the word card in the subject may leave less technically minded folk a bit confused

I don't think the less technically minded folk would be interested in this offer anyway, would they? puzzled

Cheers bb, puting an ssd in my pc was a great upgrade for the os and program files, and when opening I tunes the speed difference was night and day.

Been waiting for the right time to pick up some more for the laptops.

I have a question; I've got a 15-inch Vaio with 500GB hard drive. Will there be an empty slot to put the SSD in?

Thats not bad for the money but the transfer rates are about half the speed of the current performance SSDs. For an average user though its a bit of a bargain, gamers or heavy data users may be better off spending another £30 ish for the faster data rates. Still alot faster than a normal hardrive though.
