It was a Samsung caseless drive and a gift. I don't believe I would have

I believe it was originally in a Sony laptop.
Is this MMDPE56G8DXP-0VB, as listed in
http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/products/SSD/downloads/PM800_18_SATA_II_Spec_rev11.pdf?
That would be the big brother of MMCRE28G8MXP-0VB, which is the 128GB
version that came with my X301.
According to this
(http://reviews.cnet.com/system-hard-drives/samsung-mmdpe56g8dxp-solid-state/1707-9989_7-33810175.html)
it's discontinued. I'm wondering why.
The only 256GB SSD's that I've managed to find so far (available for
purchase) are Crucial and Kingston. Yes, they are expensive, but the
X301 is my main computer and the X60s it replaced had a 500GB drive. I'm
having a hard time fitting everything in the 128GB SSD.
And Mitchell: I couldn't care less the same money could buy me an iPad
;-) No interest whatsoever in an iPad. Owning a X301 and a new 13"
MacBook Air, both of which are useful, real computers, I fail to see
what I would do with an iPad.
Cheers, Dominique
