Looking to purchase a SSD within this month, which one is highly recommended?

1.OCZ Vertex 4
2.Kingston HyperX 3K
3.Crucial M4
4.Intel 520 / 320
* Preferably 64GB~120GB only.*

Planning store OS (Windows 7, 64bit) and some light application into it to insure smooth loading and restart time, other application such as games etc will go into my HDD.

My Casing has 9 3.5" HDD docks and 6 SDD 2.5" docks, so cooling and locating is not an issue for me.

Appreciate your help, Thanks.
*
why limit yourself with only these choices? y not consider latest toggle NAND + Micron = Corsair Force series?

QUOTE(hihihehe @ Jun 16 2012, 09:14 PM)
could be stupid question but will SSD speed up virus scanning? tongue.gif
*
yes definitely speed up, because the overall random read is improved and sequential read is way way way faster den HDD

QUOTE(sasaug @ Jun 17 2012, 12:13 AM)
I plan to grab Crucial M4 128GB but might be a bit tight since I just got a tablet so might opt for 64GB version.

What can I store within 64GB? Windows takes 20GB and I left 30-40 for apps?

Just wondering if I use shell link, will it slow down my startup time?

Currently, my OS is on 640GB hdd, 410GB free. I got Kaspersky and Rainmeter in startup only and it take like around 5minutes for everything to load up. I deleted files, defrag, ccleaner everything and even did disk check and still like this.

Just happens in bootup even I tried disable Kaspersky still takes damn long time. Normal usage etc are all ok.
*
bro, windows with upgrade & updates will cost u around 28GB atleast ( prepared for future ), so for future proof a 128GB is recommended for long run
