Seems to be a good deal to me. There have certainly been better ones, recently, but nonetheless, this is pretty good, IMO.

Looks like a first generation drive, Micron controller??

I don't think I would get it. I'll stick with the known SSDs.

Man, SSD's from 3 years ago are still blazing fast.

I've had all types of controllers in the 7 or 8 SSD's drives I've owned. They were all super fast.

However, better to spend $180ish on something fresh and new that's at least 240GB

TL;DR: It supposedly has a JMicron JMF668 controller, and the launch models had really bad performance loss issues, that they seem to have fixed with updated firmware.
