    Don't forget the 10% bing cashback, and that makes this ssd beyond cheap for a brand new one.

    Search tiger direct in bing and it comes out with 15.2% cash back :D

    "It is a Vertex 1, OCZ's website does not show a 96 GB Vertex 2 only a 96 GB Vertex 1. There appears to be a mistake in this product listing."

    A reviewer on the website said this. I don't know a lot about SSDs but I'm guessing it's an older version?

    I would assume so, the vertex 2 has faster write speeds to my limited knowledge of this product.

    can't use BCB on items that have rebates. was almost a no brainer if it did work.... would've come out to about $150! Still a good deal regardless though.
