Best 120gb+ SSD

crisbduck · 20 May 2011 at 21:50

Hey, I've done some research and believe I'm looking at either the Intel 320, curial's c300 or m4 or ocz agility

I have an amd sata 6 motherboard, and will be putting windows 7, Photoshop autoCAD etc onto the ssd and I'm looking at under £200.

As far as I can tell it goes Intel > crucial > ocz for reliability but the other way for speed?
So which is the best choice?
Thanks!

I went for the M4 as it offered the best speeds for my budget. The vertex 3 was too expensive but fast and the Intel too slow. That's just my opinion, you may have a different requirements.

Crucial C300 All the way

What the difference between the m4 and c300 in practical use?

M4 is going to be the fastest, Intel will be the most reliable, Agility/C300 will offer the best £/GB.

Stay away from the OCZ agility... LOTS of problems with them...

You want reliability? Go with Intel
You want more speed? Go with the M4

In reality you will not notice any difference between them...

A plus to the Intel is besides being reliable it now comes with 5 years warranty instead of the usual 3!
