120gb SSD recommendations

Kamakazie! · 23 Sep 2013 at 12:23

All, got to pick up a new drive at short notice so was hoping for suggestions as to the best 120gb SSD for around £100. Its to go in a media centre running Vista but likely to be used in a Linux box in the future.

Prefer reliability over pure speed if there is an option.
Thanks!

Samsung ssd's seem to be the best at the moment for both to be honest

Thanks. Do I need to step up to the 840 Pro (over the Evo) though as it looks to be a bit above budget?

crucial m500
samsung 840 evo.

what I would recommend though is spending another £30 on a 240GB/250GB version.

Thanks. I'll take a look at prices and take the plunge either way.

Evo is fine if your on a tight budget as it is not a massive leap from the evo to the pro.
