Vertex 60GB SSD is $136 after rebates and cash back etc. so the guy would make $21 if he can collect everything.

OCZ Agility will be the shocker tomorrow. Hopefully it is the 60GB for $129 after MIR again.

Then we will both be happy. I can't stand rebates. I have never messed with them. To me it's like giving an interest free loan, that's assuming you get it back at all. Looking around I don't see any rebates on them right now anyways. I haven't tried BCB yet, heck I have made a big purchase in quite a while but am shopping for a new notebook and the 10% at Dell looks interesting.

Mine does the same exact thing. You have to disconnect the power to it and reconnect the power again, then boot up.

There is a thread over at Corsair forum about this...you should post something!

I got it today and I couldn't be happier. Good grief the speed is unreal. Everything is pretty much instant. By far the best money I have every put into a computer.

I have posted over there in another reactor series thread and started my own (with no reposnse) but I believe I may have solved it myself.

When they "recommend AHCI" mode for the other two drives... I think it is not a recommendation at all but a necessity.

Going to give it 24 hours or so and see if it makes any difference. So far though it it appears in the AHCI boot menu every time. What is weird is that my DVDRW still appears under the normal POST menu but my storage drive does not. (Don't get me wrong it shouldn't... dont think I have ever had a board smart enough to not list my DVDRW as AHCI though lol)
