I think they are good prices!
I don’t know why these drives (especially p4618) are not so common…they are ultra fast (in comparison with newer drive) and have a lot of endurance…maybe the form factory?! I don’t know…
I think they are good prices (it is just that my script don't monitor ebay.it as my parcel forwarding service doesn't support Italy). These drives are actually fairly common on ebay. Not the most popular, because 1) they consume lots of power and get hot, 2) usually two drives not one, which means you need some RAID on top, and 3) they take a full PCIe slot which you could connect 4 U.2 drives to, 8 with a PCIe switch. AIC cards are disappearing as a form factor.

Or the 750GB @ $99.99 (also AIC ES)

No idea if this is even interesting, just figured I'd share so I don't get tempted. I still think a standard P4800X is an easier buy at 110-120...
I just discovered that my last p4800x purchase is DOA, getting returned, this was timed perfectly to replace it. Hopefully I'll have as good of results with this as all the other Intel ES SSDs I've used over the years.

Imagine if it's listed like pans and skillets. 5 pieces include lids an accessories. It's one ssd with 4 pieces of bubble wrap.
