Samsung 8x0 EVO if you don't plan on putting them in RAID.
Samsung 8x0 Pro if you plan on putting them in RAID.
The 1TB Samsung 8x0 Evo works like a bomb and no RAID needed - I have one in my Dell XPS laptop - recently replaced the HDD with this and I will never look back.
I have 2x 256GB 840 Pro's going to be installed in RAID 0 soon and I am curious about the speed increase / no change when compare to a 240GB Corsair Force GT SSD.

No you don't get it. He hates SSDs even though he has never used one.

Yeah sadly BF4 added the round start timer, before then you could be on the otherside of the map before people on regular non-ssd drives started popping in.
SSD's are so cool, I am still impressed months later by how quick my pc turns on, but thats probably because I work on other pc's all day that take ages to reboot.

SSD makes EVERYTHING on your pc faster. Not just gaming. That's why it's worth it.
Relax m8, Im just pulling your strings.

Thank you @ Chevron for your advise , have just bought the Crucial 256 SSD at Evetech at the same price as what Wootware advertised it, went there and paid cash and got it straightaway, once again many thanks.

Its totally worth it...I have SSD's in all my PC's / Laptops and Servers. Boot up times are great, application launch times are superb and not to mention using Adobe Master Suite on an SSD is a breeze!

I do like the fact that if my pcs get an update and wants to restart, it's no inconvenience, but since i boot my pc up once a day but may load BF4 several times I prefer having the game on my SSD.
SSD changes everything. They like a really good butler!
