It is a good deal but this one is better for same class SSD http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226236
OCZ sandforce drives are not as reliable as Intel, Samsung and Crucial. I would still buy their products though if the price is right. Their new drives with Indelinx/marwell controller look promising though.

Hmm, a work mate of mine has recently RMA'd a couple of their 64 GB drives (sandforce bug). The bundle is good but windows has the backup function and there are free solutions on the web for disk cloning.
This would be a better deal with a more reliable drive Crucial M4 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148448

Just edited my post above with the Crucial M4 which is reliable and fast but the Mushkin is the best value Sandforce drive at the moment if you are on a strict budget. Most reliable are the Intel drives followed by Samsung and Crucial.
