I am looking for a quality SSD drive, especially now that prices have come down. I bought a Vertex 30gb back in the day, and it was really nice, but it didn't last long. It was fantastic for the work I do. I have a gift card to Amazon that would pay for most of a 64gb size SSD. That is really all I need. I just need it to hold about 20-30gb worth of files really. Although it might not hurt to go to 128, cause it looks like for the most part they are only $20-30 higher. I will consider those as well.
The question I have is which brand to get. Even though I am not broke up about the OCZ drive going bad cause I chalk it up to newer technology bugs, I would like to go with some quality this time. Looking at amazon and my price range, I see Samsung 830, and OCZ Vector series at the absolute top end of budget at $140. I see Crucial M4, Transcend, and OCZ Vertex are in the lower category from $100-120.
I do not have Sata 6.0 yet, but probably in the next 6 weeks. Is there are particular brand and version that is known to be good? I have found that people here know whih versions and stuff are buggy or not very good as opposed to reviews on Amazon.
TIA
