Hi Guys,

With a Rm1000 budget, which SSD should I get? Want a SSD with good performance and one that is reliable. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

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.

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

Had the same delema as you did but at the end decided paying extra RM50 is worth the money if it reduces the odds significantly that a RMA is required. OCZ has the highest failure rate whilie Intel has the lowest. That was enough to convice me to pay the premium.
