Lost my old account, can't even remember my old username.
sorry for the blank photo and no background profile, but i still use my old username.
but i'm not a CIA agent so rest assured:D

i need help choosing SSD for my netbook.
the choices are:
Kingston SDD Now V300 120GB

Team L3 120GB
the choices are because of availability in my country and price.

my netbook came with an 500GB HDD, when i upgraded it to a 1TB Toshiba HDD, it wouldn't even detect it. then i went with the 750HDD and it worked.
now i'm going for an SSD, and i'm scared will my netbook even take that SSD. which one is more power efficient.

it's the same case with the ram. i once bought a 8GB Corsair one and it wouldn't detect it. but when i buy a 8GB Low Voltage RAM from Team, it worked.
it this going to be the same case with the SSD?
and which one is better? i cant read a spec sheet:(

What's your netbook?

 

I wouldn't bother buying a super flashy SSD as the netbook won't be able to run them at full speed...

If crucial bx100/mx200 exists there for a decent price over the Samsung I would highly highly recommend them over either of the two options you proposed.
