\"\"We\u2019ve gone on and on about how our SandForce processor based OWC Mercury Extreme\u2122 Pro SSDs have seem to be universally held in high regard by reviewers, including the likes of the folks over at The SSD Review<\/a> who, as you may guess by the name, specialize in SSD performance.<\/p>\n

In fact, they loved our OWC Mercury Extreme Pro SSD<\/a> so much that they\u2019ve decided to offer one up as the grand prize in a giveaway they\u2019re holding<\/a>. Entry into the contest is free, but there are a few caveats (you knew <\/em>there was going to be some…) that you\u2019ll have to keep mind of:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You need to be a member of The SSD Review site.<\/li>\n
  2. In order to be eligible for the drawing, one must register on The SSD Review and become an active <\/em>member in the forum community between now and February 15, 2011.<\/li>\n
  3. Members will not be eligible if they haven\u2019t posted to the site previously or at least once within the contest eligibility period.<\/li>\n
  4. To win the contest, the selected site member must correctly answer a skill testing question only when informed that he\/she has won and the question is presented in an e-mail.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    That\u2019s not too bad, right? Head over to The SSD Review, register, and start contributing your SSD knowledge, and you\u2019ll be eligible to win.<\/p>\n

    Of course, if you don\u2019t wind up being the lucky winner, you\u2019ll still be able to buy your own right here at OWC!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
