look so "generic" ...

I know right, I always stick my head into the case and look at my brushed-aluminium Samsung 840 with diamond-cut edges, which is tucked away in some far corner of my case.

Toshiba has always been this way. OCZ, Kingston and the likes were always colorful with edgy styling, but Toshiba was always conservative. Same with Crucial. Pretty generic...

Yeah well, for some it seems to be very important. Just like I'll never understand how people care what color is the cloth iron or vacuum cleaner. I've literally seen people who absolutely loved the product functionality wise, but then didn't buy it because it was of a wrong color. o_O

This kind of price is normal on Japanese market, where everything is ridiculously overpriced. But good luck in Europe where they are going to add to final price 40% more due to 1 million more taxes....
