Hello All,

I have a PQ5 Deluxe motherboard and am wanting to get a SSD, which one would you recommend, I have no limit to spend.

Thanks,

Andrew

Min 120Gb
Sandforce 1200/1222 controller

No need for a Crucial C300 unless you get a SATA3/6 Gbps controller card to make the most of it (your MB only supports SATA2/3 Gbps)

Have fun

Also I take it I would need to buy a mounting bracket also?

Thanks,

Sorry for delay... work

Yep one of the good ones

Similar performance from this one and slightly cheaper

Mounting wise a drive bay adaptor is handy... or just velcro strips or sticky pads secured away in a quiet corner of the case is just as good. Cooling not a issue as with conventional mechanical HDD's

This Bigfoot one is 3.5" and fits in a normal 3.5" drive bay

The OCZ comes with a bracket in the box, I currently use the 120gb in my laptop and the 60gb OCZ in my Desktop.
