Are these drives reliable? If so which is the most reliable of the two?

if you want a reliable drive go with samsung.

if you want a fast value drive go with the adata sp550

[Cryosec]

Kingston won't be the best choice in general, but if you need to choose between the two, then go HyperX. the V300 are really bad

if you wanna buy a cheap SSD, by all means do it

its not my data on those drives, if you think its worth it then fine by me

im merely suggesting you take a look at those

 

my personal opinion on SSD: get a reliable one or dont get one at all

[Thony]

I also say go with Fury (purely because Linus still runs his server off 24 of them or what crazy number they got sponsored).

 

V300Now has the worst reputation out of all the SSDs, hence why it's the cheapest...

 

Probably fine for games or unimportant redownloadable data. Yet there are people who run systems on them. They don't last long I would believe.

 

I've had Samsung 750 for 2 years now, runs like new  worth every penny. 

On black Friday they nose dive in price so if u wanna be cheap you better wait.

I'd get the Hyper X over the Now.

Well try find SSD tests results that include Hyper X to bring some peace to your mind because the people's response is not very calming

Get the hyperX over the ssdnow. I don't think the ssdnow is that reliable.

i think they're running the SSDNow KC300 drives, which are the better ones compared to the v300, without the changing chip issues since its a business model and what not
