    I'm interested in getting a 128gb ssd for my notebook. Anyone got any suggestions on some good, speedy ones?

    Indilinx or Intel.

    Yep, that's pretty much it. Samsung has kind of failed itself out of the current generation.

    Seeing as Intel only has 80 or 160GB drives, now you're down to Indilinx.

    At that point you've still got a couple flavors of Indilinx 128GB drives to choose from, but they're all more or less the same.

    Currently the cheapest such drive on Newegg is the $320 G.Skill Falcon...
