I've asked the missus for 2 things this Christmas, a non-geeky present, Skagen watch, and a geeky present.. a SSD.
But I'm undecided as which to get, do I go for a OCZ Vertex 2E 60Gb\Patriot Inferno 60Gb (which ever is cheapest at the time) or a Crucial RealSSD C300?
I know that the RealSSD has blisteringly fast read speeds and not so fast write, but how does it perform on SATA2? Does it need SATA3 to perform as well? The Patriot and Vertex are pretty much the same, they only differ in XX22 of the SandForce processors. The Crucial has top ended on reads, but the Vert\Inferno are balanced in R/W performance. But which will give me better overall performance in boot times, and games, I'd assume tine C300, but the installation of things would be slower, non?
I'm slightly edging towards the C300... But I'd like some input from the rest of my peers first.
Thanks
