which SSD should i go for??!

[ViciousClone]

Hi hi

Well i'm getting a SSD next week..but confused

With the big selection on the market :/ ...

Intel,kingston ,ocs,transcend???

Going for the 120gb ... So which one

 

[abandonallhope]

I'm a little out of touch atm, but from the bits and pieces I gather the OCZ vertex 4 should be a strong contender. Maybe even the agility 4.

I am cheapskate so I got the agility 3 earlier this year, and even that made an unbelievable difference.

Crucial M4. Really good price on Wootware atm too. You might want to check out this thread on overclock.net: http://www.overclock.net/t/1179518/seans-ssd-buyers-guide-information-thread

OCZ vertex 4 all you need

OCZ vertex 4 all you need

+1 I have an older Vertex 3 and there is no going back!

I've had a Samsung for four years and got an Intel 520 series now.

Stay away from the OCZ vertex 3 IMO. I have had nothing but BSOD's.
Even after upgrading firmware.

With the OCZ SSD's - make sure to upgrade the firmware before installing/formatting them!

I'd highly recommend the OCZ Vertex 4, but they're pretty pricey at this moment @ R1.5k for the 128GB one

Hmmm even on the net it's intel or ocs vertex 4..

Intel known for stability..but their a lil more expensive

Many are talking about the vertex 4 ..but better price

OCZ Vertex 4 -R1200

 

[MrMocs]

as everybody point out Vertex 4 256GB thats the pick for me going to get one soon for my MBP

 

[ViciousClone]

Crosair force GT seems to be a good one to :/..

 

[X-Gamer]

Where do you see a Vertex 4, for R1200?

 

[DominionZA]

I picked up a Vertex 4 256GB from Esquire for around R2,500.
Awesome upgrade.

Any have the Crosair Force GT? ..rankings seems good to

 

[Rudimental]

It is Corsair, rather than Crosair.

I would not go for the Corsair Force GT, since it uses a Sandforce controller, which has had a lot of firmware bugs, and its performance is highly dependent on the type of data you are using (conpressible vs noncompressible). The Vertex 4 uses a Marvel controller that is much more consistent, and so gives better overall performance, and also seems to be more reliable.
