Right, I'm finally going to buy an SSD, just to make boot-ups faster since I generally hibernate theses days to keep it up to speed.

I currently have a 500GB Seagate Barracuda, and I have a 2TB Seagate Barracuda on the way, so 2.5TB space for all my crap lol.

Just want my OS and some core programs on it. I was looking at these since they're similar in price:

2 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-079-OC&groupid=701&catid=2104&subcat=

3 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-075-OC&groupid=701&catid=2104&subcat=

4 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-008-CR&groupid=701&catid=2104&subcat=

5 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-023-CS&groupid=701&catid=2104&subcat=

Which one is the best overall from those 5? In fact, would I need a 60GB one, or would a 32GB version be more sensible? I'm just not sure how much space the OS takes.

Lastly, when my 2TB arrives, I'm planning on moving quite a few files onto it from my C drive before I reinstall Windows, would that get wiped when I reinstall or would it be fine?

Thanks for any help :)
 
I didn't really want to stretch to £90, but it is 128GB, I suppose the question is is it worth £30 more for double the space?

I was also wondering where I'd put the SSD inside, because I've read some just let them rest on the base or use velcro/tape to attach them to the case. Then you have those attachments to dock them in your bay. From the looks of it, the Samsung drive comes with one of them no?

But, it's currently out of stock, so I may wait for OCUK to get more in, and see if it goes on weekly at any point to save me a few quid :)
