Kingsington SSD? Never heard of it?! Are you not talking about the sale of Kingston SSD's going on at Newegg these days, as e.g. referenced at Slickdeals site?

Newegg e.g claim to sell Kingston SSDNow V100 Series SV100S2/64GZ 2.5" 64GB SATA II for $65 "after rebate".

Aren't these the ones that use a JMF618 controller?

Yeah, I'll pass.

Actually, I might pick up a few for use as read caches for my fileserver, but I'm not going to use them for primary storage, that's for sure!

I have no intention to buy one, just posted it.
Anandtech is quite positive about them though!
Do you really rely on Newegg user reviews? I wouldn't.

Yes, I trust reviews from actual users rather than some site that have relationships with manufacturers.

Too many bsod complaints for me on that model.
