QUOTE(general_odin @ Feb 1 2012, 12:46 PM) hello everyone.. i'm thinking of getting a 80-120GB SSD with good reliability and balanced performance... Personally, I would go for Samsung 830 or Crucial M4. They have better read performance , and seems to be more reliable than Sandforce SSD.any recommendation?  |

QUOTE(Shufflerz @ Feb 3 2012, 05:31 PM) Where to find 830? Amazon US. I just bought the 64gb from there for 142 usd, shipping included. Most stores there don't ship to MY, but I found one called MemoryC who ship to MY for only 12 usd.Also found M4 there at 110 usd but for shipping need to pay 30+ usd. |

QUOTE(Shufflerz @ Feb 3 2012, 07:58 PM) Try post Crystal Mark score and see for the 830. I just ordered it 2 days ago, will only arrive after 2-3 weeks. Try google it, I think Anandtech or Tomshardware did some benchmarks for it. Also my MB is SATA2, so scores should be lower.Wanna compare. This post has been edited by ralyon: Feb 3 2012, 09:59 PM |

QUOTE(seatux @ Feb 19 2012, 10:57 PM) Is it normal to get occasional BSOD when running on a SSD? I have been using 830 64gb in my htpc for almost 2 weeks now, never got any BSOD.I am on a OEM Samsung 830 128GB drive and running it on a C2D E8400 and a P43 Mobo. Fresh Windows 7 64 install even. Bought it from here: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry48644735 |

QUOTE(DalphinuS @ Feb 21 2012, 12:28 AM) Anyone heard of Force brand SSD? I got a quote of RM449 for 60GB. I think you mean corsair force. I feel that is expansive, you can already get crucial m4 for 110 usd or samsung 830 for 140 usd, that is if you don't mind ordering online. |

QUOTE(bobbey @ Mar 10 2012, 02:19 PM) So, are you saying that there will be no compatibility issue if I use SATA3 SSD on SATA2 port? I'm on planning to buy SSD to replace my old HDD. I have been using Samsung 830 on sata2 but never had any issue. |
