I got a Patriot Rage (pretty good usb stick) 64gb for $50. I think you're probably looking at $1 per gb on a good sales day

Brehs, I gotta question too. How do I know if my SSD is failing? I think mine is. shyt is still booting slowly for no apparent reason whenever I install anything! And now if I leave an excel file open for too long and try to save it, excel freezes (that might be an office thing though, I dunno).

I've run tests, and it appears that everything is all good, but I'm skeptical. Any programs you suggest?

damn the sandisk 64gb is 70 via amazon :patrice:

Black Friday sales? I got mine randomly at Fry's for dirt cheap. The guy said I was just lucky and they put that thing on sale that day and that they would probably be gone in a day or so.

SSDLife Pro says my ssd is 100% health and won't fail until April 09, 2022 :dead:

Something is wrong though
