Why don't you RAID 0 all of them and post videos/benchmarks just for the fun of it.
Remember the video on youtube 'Samsung SSD Awesomeness'

bro if im rich i will do so.. but i stock for sales

Guys I've some questions here.
1. Does Sandforce controller still face BSOD problem?
2.Crucial m4 vs sandforce controller ssd, which is better?
3.Which 128G SSD would you guys recommend ?
Thanks in advance!
Budget max 400, lower is better but don't neglect performance. :3

1. Pretty much no. The latest patches since a few months ago has pretty much fixed up the BSOD issues, reports are much more uncommon now in comparison to last year.
There are however still users getting BSODs, but they can be down to other factors not just the firmware.

2. I still prefer the Marvell controllers (Crucial M4) over the Sandforce. Eventhough Sandforce, on paper atleast is faster than Marvell controllers but they do have a performance deficit when it comes to incompressible data.
For me, the Marvell controller is better as their speed doesn't drop regardless of what kind of data it is processing.

3. Crucial M4 128GB or Intel 330 128GB. As they're the closest to your RM400 budget, both drives are around RM430-RM450. So you still have to pony up a little bit.

Thanks for your info !

My first SSD just got it few hours ago. Intel 520 120GB running on i5 2500K 3.30Ghz Asus P8P67 Pro 4GB Corsair Vengence DDR3 RAM

Here are the results of some benchmarks I ran:




Please comment and let me know if I further optimazation is required. I connected the SSD to a Intel SATA6 port.


Thanks.

Looks great. How much it cost you?

OCZ Agility 4 on the way.
http://www.ocztechnology.com/ocz-agility-4...d.html#overview

If they sell them at a price point similar or lower than Intel 330, we're gonna have a very interesting market of SSD price war in the next 3 months indeed.

i think they might come with 5 years warranty oso like their vertex 4 just release

If Agility 4 really comes with 5 years warranty, it'll be a huge win for OCZ.
As other competing models in similar price range (M4, 330, other asynchronous SF-2281 based SSDs) only has 3 years warranty.

vertex 4 now market price around RM550~RM590 for 128G
while M4 around RM450+/- an hundred ringgit gap neh

hey..isnt' M4 128gb sold at RM400 by one of the forumer?

come preorder cheap ssd PM me...few more units to go.

agility is same range as m4/330 so i don think it will come with 5years warranty

I read somewhere that Vertex 4 don't have performance degradation issue while accessing compressible data anymore. Any Vertex 4 user can confirm this?

Vertex4 or intel 520. New+ fastest ssd on earth vs reliabilty+ 2nd fastest. Headache which to choose. Any comments?

Weird... your mobo should have no problems being in AHCI mode.
The P55 chipset doesn't have issues when in AHCI mode either.

Perhaps update your BIOS?


Yes it's true.

yes. thats why u dont need to format your system always. and vertex4 price is cheaper than intel 550 and corsair force GT
