I'm in for a SSD, my budget is £200.

Which are the best drives at the moment?

If you have a 6gb/s SATA controller then the C300, if not save yourself some money and got for the Vertex 2E - the 3.5" model is on offer at OcUK at the moment.

The new 25nm Intel drives are imminent, I'd hold out for one of those.

Thank you both for the info.

MikeHiow, I don't have a 6gb/s controller. Btw, is this the Vertex drive you mean?

I was on about this one - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-060-OC&groupid=701&catid=14&subcat=1427

Which was on offer yesterday, I'm sure. Shopping around would reveal prices similar to what it was on offer for anyway though - for both the 2.5 and 3.5" versions.

Thanks again MikeHiow, and you are right it was on offer yesterday (Today Only)

I missed the offer
