Had thought about the intel.
Is it worth changing my x25 ?

The simple answer is probably not. The intels are known for their reliability, they're not quite as fast as some others in benchmarks but in real-world application you won't notice enough of a difference to make it worth upgrading (or probably any difference at all).

If you're going to buy another SSD and you're wondering what's better than the intel, your best bet is probably to get the same again and Raid0 them for speed anyway. If you're looking to sell your intel and get another drive, save yourself the money and don't.
