Posted April 22, 2014 120gb 840 EVO is like $80. Very reliable and very fast. Intel 530 series comes in 120gb, it's very reliable, not nearly as fast as the EVO though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M500 is good, I would not recommend the PNY, their products aren't the best and that drive is kinda dated IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 22, 2014 Author I have had a Crucial M4 in my laptop for about 2.5 years and never had any problems... I guess the M500 will be something alike Sold my build.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 22, 2014 It's 139 instead of 250..... Yes, $250 is the MSRP price, the price of when it launched year(s) ago, I can't remember when it launched. Prices of SSDs have decreased immensely since then. See this for price comparison from other vendors: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 22, 2014 in my point of view either a Samsung or AData SSD. I always had positive experiences with both. I've got a few SSDs here that i don't need any more, PM me if interested. I was running an OS from it for about 3 months in a RAID1 config until i got more accustomed to FreeNAS and NAS4Free which are preferably installed on USB Sticks LOL. Got no use for them anymore so I want to sell them, but i lost the sales check, no warranty on them though My builds: 'Baldur' - Data Server - Build Log 'Hlin' - UTM Gateway Server - Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
