Not taking price into account which one do you think is the better product for use as a reliable OS(maybe)/3D Animation Projects/Gaming drive?

 

Thanks in advance

The Intel SSD is by far superior if you can deal with the price.

The Intel SSD will be more expensive but will be better than the A-Data.

Neither.

Get a m500 (if you're on budget) or 840pro (if you need a top performance drive).

I can get a SX900 for almost $300 cheaper then i could an equivalent sized 840pro though due to my work selling adata products

Get whatever is cheapest. Unless you're SUPER concerned about reliability (if this will be a production machine or something running at heavy load 24/7), then you should consider the 730 over the Adata model.

 

Intel is famous for reliability, but I have no experience with Adata yet (just bought a 64GB MLC drive from them).
