Pretty much any SSD is perfect for a notebook.
Question is, how deep are your pockets?

Crucial M4 256GB is going for RM590 now, it's a great deal if you ask me.

I have the same problem, Samsung SSD seems like the best, but i watched some youtube videos, it seems that the Intel benchmark is better than it, however when comparing bootspeed and application loading time, samsung stands out, making me totally lost.

Lots of retailers in lowyat are selling intel, but hardly see any for samsung. any special reason?

Edit: I'm comparing the Samsung 830 128Gb vs the Intel 520 120GB

intel 520 is quite out of league isnt it

u should compare samsung 830 vs intel 330 instead

Hi, I wan to know will thr be any problem if I use ssd as an external HDD? I have a crucial m4 128gb, I hope I can use it as external HDD cause I cannot use it as internal HDD.

u meant to use ur ssd as an ext storage? hmm.gif

thats kinda defeat the purpose of havin a ssd..its for ur OS not data

why u cannot use internally? just clone the drive and replace it with ssd la

any sifu here would like to enlighten me on how to transform SSD into portable hard disk? I need the SSD with best read/write speed and turn it into portable one smile.gif

if u want some faster hard disk for external i suggest just buy an external that supports usb 3.0. that will do i guess

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?
*
bro 010G quite buggy. u shud just stay with current fw for now smile.gif
