Question about SSDs

Emzijs · August 9, 2015

Hello.
I have a dilemma about SSDs.I need to choose between 2 SSD drives - Corsair Force LS V2 and OCZ Trion 100.Corsair costs about 45 euros and is 60GB,but OCZ is 120GB and costs 60 euros.Read/Write speeds are very similar.

The thing is,that I don't need that much space.I will use this SSD in laptop and will be storing anything other than OS and some word/pp files and little bit music.I will swap out my 160GB HDD and use it as external drive.

What is your opinion?Is it worth to buy OCZ because of the bigger space,or save a bit and buy Corsair SSD?

OCZ SSDs thus far are pretty power-hungry and not suitable for laptops, only desktops.

edit: Never mind, apparently the Trion is the first OCZ drive to have low-power states...

OCZ SSDs thus far are pretty power-hungry and not suitable for laptops, only desktops.

Then OCZ will pass this one.So,the only option is Corsair now.

How about Kingston SSDNow or Sandisk U110 drives?
