QUOTE(bombayspeed @ Sep 8 2012, 12:52 AM) First: Think about storage mode for Vertex 4 before u buy ocz failure is based on sandforce chipset or indilinx chipset? dont mix them up and most ssd using MLC Sync. Some brand/model use Async and Toggle.Second: Vertex 4 use MLC synchronous NAND Third: i heard a lot of complain about OCZ product failure blah blah blah(i don know how true is that) This is the reason y i don choose V4 because of the "two" mode and also cannot find at my local shop  QUOTE(ketapang @ Sep 7 2012, 08:43 PM) Hey guys. I'm leaning towards Vertex 4 128GB right now. Same price with Samsung 830. But OCZ offer 5 years warranty. Should i go for Vertex 4 instead? I do heard OCZ released a new firmware. FW 1.5 is it? How was it now? what is your budget? Intel 520 is 5 years warranty also and intel failure rate is the lowest. Its my 1st ssd btw so i dont want to have a problematic hardware.

QUOTE(ketapang @ Sep 8 2012, 02:39 PM) My budget is around RM350 only. Intel 520 is way to expensive for me. with rm350 budget i suggest you go for intel 330 for reliability. Crucial M4 also good know for its reliability read can reach 5xxmb but write is max around 17xmb which im using now. vertex 4 giving 5 years warranty becoz of new chipset indilinx. I don't really care about the speed, as long it reaches around 480MB++ then it's consider okay. The most important aspect is the reliability. I already narrow my choice for Intel 330 or Samsung 830. But Vertex 4 keeps coming to my head.  This post has been edited by KIntos: Sep 8 2012, 02:47 PM |

hmm. my crucial m4 128gb cannot update firmware to 010G from 000F. got error prompt out saying 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' somethings related to JIT debugging. remain 000F now.
could it becoz im using window updater?? maybe i should try boot file to update? This post has been edited by KIntos: Oct 16 2012, 07:16 AM |
