If you were looking for a 10DWPD 400GB 12gbps SAS drive this is interesting:
SanDisk 400GB Lighting 12Gb/s SAS - 2.5 Solid State Drive - SDLTMDKW-400G-SCA1

$319 + 10 shipping is good for these drives.

How do these
Lightning LB806M 800 GB - 6 Gbps 2.5" Internal Solid State Drive

Compare? I know they are 6Gbps instead of 12 but they are available for $300-$400

Looks like someone snagged the Gen II. If that is indeed an ultra it is actually SLC and 25 DWPD.

The LB806M - I use a few 400GB versions. Significantly slower than modern drives but are tanks. Here is the SLC version of the original drive: http://www.servethehome.com/sandisk-lightning-406s-400gb-34nm-slc-6gbps-sas-ssd-quick-benchmarks/
