hey guys,

currently which model is the most stable? Or are they all the same? I looked through a few pages back and some forumers said Intel's 80gb comes highly recommended.

Also, one thing i realised, the same 120gb can vary differently in terms of price and performance. Are performance and stability equally as important?

Im interested in either 80gb or 120gb. Hope to get most bang for buck.

Thanks!

what's the proper way to install an SSD into a desktop? What's all this thing about TRIM and AHCI? I plan to use it to run my OS and games

newbie here.

So SATA3 is not recommended since it slows down VGA performance via the PCIexpress ?

doesn't the SATA3 controller hops through the pci-e bus on its way to the CPU and is limited to 500Mbps? Certain intel mobos only though

hey guys,

I got 260.7Mb/s for Sequential Read and 171.1Mb/s Sequential Write.
