Yeah, it’s a good price for a 120g, but honestly if i was going to replace mine I’d spend a bit more and get something bigger and maybe new. That’s had many years of use. You can probably get 250 new for less than $100.

Same brand, though?

I’m setting up a Linux box. FreeBSD, to be precise. I know zero; I just want fast and robust.

Toshiba, OCZ, Kingston, and SanDisk. They also have a Micron 128 GB drive in M.2 form factor for $39 if you can use that.

Also specs say this is SATA II. You might win the latency war over a spinning disk, but throughput will suck if you’re used to anything SATA III.
