I need a cheapo SSD that has software that will ensure it runs good on an old Vista or XP laptop. Dont some of these SSD's come with add in software that can do exactly this job?
 
The drive does its own garbage collection in the background. Doesn't require any software to be installed.
 
A Samsung EVO 120gb can be had for £55, it may be overkill but has the software he requested.

Plus it's a decent ssd to carry over to another build if anything happens to the laptop.
 
Nope that does not work by normal method as you simply clone all the dirty files also.

There is a guide on Corsair forums if you want to do so but its a lot of messing about and they still recommend a clean install.
 
thanks for the replies chaps - looks like the Samsung EVO 120gb is the one to go for unless anyone knows any cheaper ones? (eg Sandisk or Transend)
