Good find! Just ordered one. With the colder weather my original drive is starting to act up, so I'm planning to pair this adapter with either an OCZ Agility 2 60GB or 90GB SSD, or possibly the 90G Vertex 2 SSD. This will be my first empeg/SSD experience; recommendations and advice from those that have been down this path would be greatly appreciated.


I've just ordered one a couple days ago. Now I notice another (seemingly identical) for a couple bucks less.

Any updates from you guys on your trials with this card?

I have my eye on SSD prices. If they'd just inch a little closer to $1/GB I think I'd jump on a 128GB drive. My main empeg is complaining about drive reads these days. ~sigh~
