So I am finally filling my basket with parts after *months* of delays. I have every part chosen except the SSD.

I am looking for at the Corsair Force Series 3 120GB SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Drive (CSSD-F120GB3-BK). Is there any reason not to get this? Its write speeds seem much higher than the others?
 
I have the force series 3 and love it. (touch wood) no problems at all except having to take off the usb connector on the MB because I couldn't install windows because of that....and no idea why, just a forum I googled gave me that to try.
After all installed I connected all back up and no probs....so simple
 
Currently have a 64GB M4 sitting next to me waiting to be installed when the 2nd one arrives tomorrow :)

I had a Vertex 3 before that and luckily had no issues with it.

I don't think you can go wrong with any SSD really, they all do pretty much the same.
 
I've actually had good runs with Vertex 2e and everyone's pet hate the agility 3. Both brands have served me well... but on this occasion I'm going to take a punt on the Corsair F3.

OP Keep us posted as I'll be ordering very soon too :)

ps @stulid I'll probably be using your board with the F3 :p
 
I've had a lot of encounters with SSDs recently as I've been persuading a few customers over to them. I think the Corsair Force 3 is an excellent drive and super value for money. This is now the drive I run and I'm really impressed with it.
