regarding the chips thing.
Kingston v300 120 gb using SandForce® SF-2281 paired with 19nm toshiba.
R/W speed: 450mb/450mb
price: RM300
vs
Plextor m5s 128gb using Marvell paired with 19nm toshiba
R/W speed: 520/200
Price: RM299

Plextor stands out?

Kingston hyperX 3K using SandForce® SF-2281 with MLC NAND (3k P/E cycles)
MLC NAND is 25nm and differ from Toshiba 19nm (means outdated tech compared to V300 or plextor?)
R/W : 555/510
price: RM360-380
vs
Intel 330 120 gb using SandForce® SF-2281 with MLC NAND
R/W: 500/450
Price: RM 360-370

Mostly seller no stock for intel. means intel is better than HyperX? but its price rise up and match with HyperX makes it like not worth only.

I think I use it wrongly, I only put O/S, and other essential program in SSD, like MS office, Photoshop... etc. Game wise, all installed in my nomal 7200rpm harddisk...

I cloned my windows to SSD and boot from it. However it took me almost 1 minute to get into desktop. what happen? it stuck longer at the welcome screen there...

Owh. sorry i am new to SSD family. so which BIOS is fastest for your knowledge? I don't feel much difference of the SSD when comparing to HDD....@.@ so how long you took?

How you manage your SSD? pure window on the SSD? how about those application software like adobe reader, intel stuff, graphic card tuner, motherboard tuner those stuffs? if I install frequently played games like dota2 on SSD, it will load faster?

How to optimize SSD and prolong its life?

Yup those sub folders are under OS drive once u done the window installation. I don't bother using them because it is confusing for me. I try make as simple as possible with less folders and differentiate files clearly.
True that internet speed is terrible and and unstable sometimes. Every month saw the streamyx bill is headache to pay it  .

CHEAPEST  and best values 120g/128gb ssd recommend please....

for me SSD is about performance............
if dont want performance better using HDD.....

but the big problem is price....
too get performance u need to pay....

I'm using Plextor M5S 128GB 

Ok here is the thing WD blacks require active cooling especially the current gen. They run hot.

SSD's now are better than ever and they can handle multi tasking. Hence where on I/O consistency the sandforce beats marvel, samsung. Meaning i would trust my torrent rig with sandforce rather than marvel and samsung controllers. However since the use of nand's sandforce degrades.

The only one top of the line that is very good at this is Neutron GTX which is what corsair is marketing as multi tasking heavy use. Its also good for some light server loads so far. Its enterprise grade on I/O consisntecy and the nand doesnt degrade.

i'm i the market for a 120GB/128GB ssd. i've been eyeing for intel 520, but  a search in lowyat today showed out of stock. seems like i was too late in the ssd game

so i have to find an alternative. the only reason i wanted the 520 was because it has a write speed of 500+ MB/s, which most other ssd lack at that price point. not only that, a lot of positive reviews on its reliability

so any recommendation? the samsung 840 pro is out of rage as i have only a budget of rm400 max

thanks for the help guys

HOLY F!
but the m5pro is better right? wonder how cheap can you get? if it's less than 400, i'll go lowyat again tomorrow
which jayacom btw? 

noted. thanks man. oh and which jayacom is it? the one beside the escalator is it? because there's also another jayacom somewhere at the same floor. at the back alley (as i usually call the ones not at the front)

I guess all brand of SSD will show no huge difference in normal daily usage right?

So which brand you suggest me to take?
