You'll have to follow the "new from" link and scroll down to the none featured sellers to get the lower prices I listed above.

This may be worth working your way through, Shopping results for PATA SSD:

Note that PATA SSDs are likely to be yesterday's technology or the day before's. Also they probably lack built-in garbage collection.
