Yea, not much you can do about it though when 1/4 of the world's hdd production capacity got wiped out overnight in a flood, though price should probably come back down here in the next couple months.

Also, I wouldn't go that far on non-Intel SSDs, they're no better or worse than your avg. pc components, though iirc Intel does have a much more rigorous testing process on their ssd models.
