I'm in the market for a good SSD that can handle high write speeds when recorded lossless footage such as FRAPS & DXTory. I had a good look on OCUK, and found this:

Is it worth it for the price? It has the size I need, but I'm an idiot when it comes to SSD's xD

Also, would I need a drive attachment so it fits in my 3.5 bay or can I just let it rest at the bottom of the case as I've heard people say?
 
No. Its a pile of steaming poo. I wouldnt recommend kingston due to their bait and switch tactics.
Either a) get the crucial m500 240gb (quite fast, very cheap, reliable) or b) samsung evo 240gb ( which is very fast)
 
I would recommend those 2 drives too, a review I read last night the crucial m500 came out on top out of 9 drives tested, however the Samsung evo came out on top in RAID performance, and as I'm going to be running 2 together in RAID0 that's the ones I'll be buying.
 
Samsung = Speed (very fast), not so cheap
Crucial = Cheap, Reliable, Not so fast
Kingston = Meh, questionable reliability and speed

However, i am a crucial fan myself. Can't fault them.
