This vs ocz agility 3? hard to say, massive price difference, around £30. Performance wise, almost nothing, but then again as stated above, one is made from tinfoil scrap and an old radio, the other outa flashy components. Had vertex 2, no problems what so ever, just too many ppl havin trouble with their ssds and i want some stability
 
Are these the 85K IOPS drives?

I'd love to hook these up to RAID1 as long as the Intel Sata controllers (P8P67-D) aren't holding them back (bottleneck) I'd assume it's possible for near-1GB read/writes. :eek:

Shame the blue Kingston HyperX 120GB aren't quite out yet, would love to see how the extra 10K IOPS performs (95K). Although I've noted there doesn't seem to be support for RAID. :(

Just had to send my 60GB back as was getting lockups and BSOD's.

Back to my trusty M4 now no problems whatsoever with that.

But that's Crucial, this is a Corsair SSD. If your talking about SSDs in general, my OCZ Vertex 2e is solid for reliability. *touch wood* My only reason for a wanting a better SSD is speed, mainly for batching jobs & rendering HD footage.

Yeah but it was a Corsair Force GT i had to RMA.

That's worrying on why your SSD caused your PC to freeze and BSOD, I've only had those issues due to overclocking my GPU. I'm very tempted to RAID a couple 120GBs but your comment has spooked me as RAID is prone to more issues than normal - seems a few SSDs are getting bad reports recently (ie, Intel's 320 8MB bug which loses data :eek:).

Any comment from Corsair on those symptoms you described?
 
Just sounded like the usual problems people were having with Sandforce based SSD's.

Maybe it was just my drive but i thought with this drive coming out after all the past problems that they would have ironed them all out by now.
