Someone I know coming from US. So any good deals? I am looking for 250GB. and unless the deal is really good, will consider 500GB one.

@Hades. suggested me following:

go for either Samsung 850 Pro or Sandisk Extreme Pro

850 Pro> Extreme Pro > Every Other SSD

On cyber monday you maybe able to buy Sandisk Extreme Pro 480GB for below 200$

However I can't find any good deals now. Samsung 850 Pro is currently its available for 150USD in amazon, thats the best I can get?

and also, all SSDs come with International warranty?
 
I think Samsung doesnt honor warranty for international purchase but i guess Sandisk does...

Dont worry buddy you would definately find a good SSD for your needs... Amazon has anounced that their cyber monday deals would run for one whole week... If i would come accross any good deal i would PM you...

Samsung has an offer going on where any SSDof theirs >= 250GB gets a free copy of Far Cry 4. The EVO 250 is currently the top selling SSD on Amazon for $109 (which translates to $130 if you get it shipped here). That's just slightly under the Rs 8.8k you can get it for locally but you do get a free game worth 1700 that you can play or sell to subsidize the cost.

I don't have to ship, someone is coming from US. So I can get it from them.

and I am not really interested in FC4 :-/

Well you could probably easily sell/trade the FC4 code to someone for 1200-1300 bucks here or $30 on international forums. That subsidizes your cost. $109 (no shipping) - $20 FC4 code sale = $90 which means 36c per GB which is lower than what you'd pay if you bought a 1TB drive.

edit - as for the choices mentioned above, I had an SSDNow V300. Good drive, but I ultimately sold it to get an EVO.

Why is that?

No particular reason other than that I had read the EVO is a better option. There's nothing wrong with the V300.

BTW, the price of the 250GB EVO has dropped by another $10 and it's down to $99.99 now.

Intel is manufacturing their own 3D V-Nand with the help of micron (intel's acquired company)... I am hopeful that intel would literally nail the 3D v-nand technology... Intel didnt launch any well performing drive this year but rumour has it that intel is gonna launch its first 3d v-nand drive in 2015 which i am really excited about... and i think intel would raise its new ssd warranty period from 5 t0 10 years (wishful thinking?)
