Current status of solid-state drives December 8, 2011 3:39 pm TB

Plextor has their M3S series out. 512 GB (my measure of these things, since that’s the size of one of my drives) will run about $700. I can remember much smaller SSDs going for well over a thousand.

128 GB is going for under $200.

As a point of reference, a Western Digital conventional 500 GB drive is running about a hundred bucks.
