Inexpensive Samsung 128GB SSDs available on eBay

#1 Post by skygodtj » Tue Apr 30, 2013 7:51 pm

Looking for an inexpensive entry into SSDs for my T40 Frankenpads & T60 I came across these Samsung 128GB 1.8" SSDs (MMCRE28GTMXP K326R).. I bought several of them with the idea of doing the SSD mod found here: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=106749, (Thanks Johan) and also use them for other friends laptops upgrades.. the seller dropped his price from $75 to $69, making them more attractive for modders looking to bump their performance numbers. Now, they aren't nearly as speedy as the 830's but still double the perf of traditional 4200/5400rpm drives and almost double the perf of 7200rpm drives.

You would need to find the 1.8" to 2.5" adapter frames (ebay, abt $4) for the SATA versions, and the micro-SATA to IDE/PATA adapters for the T4x platforms.. from ny-compu-tek (one of this forum's members). The T4x SSD sticky has links to several IDE frames/adapter in it.

micro-SATA --> SATA:

As always, if this belongs in another Topic (or just doesn't belong anywhere here), Mods can move it.
