OWC sells this SS drive for $129.75 plus postage:

The same drive is on Amazon for the same price but free postage.  It only has two reviews on Amazon, and one is bad.

I found this one called KingSpec on Amazon for $90 and free free shipping:

I am leaning towards the KingSpec unless someone can give me some feedback.  The KingSpec has 28 reviews, and many are bad.  One Mac user gave it 4 stars and said "I know its crazy but I put this in my old G4 Mac mini. It runs great now.".

Here are a few others:

I have used Transcend in the past and had no issues, but it is expensive.

Any feedback before I buy a SS drive for this laptop?  The OSX that it supports wil take 128MBs, right?

Thanks
