Hi guys. Any Intel 330 120GB user here? Im highly interested in getting this one. Can share your experience? Thx.

Intel 330 120GB would suit your budget. The lowest price i found in LYP is RM310(C-Zone).
Intel = Reliability + 3 Years Warranty.

Just notice when i was looking around the pricelist. Damn cheap!

So guys, i already placed an order from Newegg Malaysia for Samsung 830 128GB, RM310+RM25 postage to my place. But this Intel price is just too good. Should i cancel my order and go for Intel?

Before you buy any item from Newegg, make sure you ask all about the warranty of that item. Because there's an item when it shipped outside US, it will void the warranty. I already asked them (Newegg Malaysia) about Samsung product, they say Samsung didnt state any void of warranty if shipped outside US. And you must know that in order to do RMA, you need to send back the item to US which is quiet a hassle (at least for me). And you need to pay half of the cost for shipping back to US. Idk if I can do RMA through Samsung Malaysia since mine its not local unit.

If you just want to be safe, you better buy here @ local store. But you do need to fork out some money though since the price is quiet higher than offered by Newegg. But look on the bright side, you can 1-to-1 exchange if anything happen to your ssd in a week time & its easier for RMA purpose.

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? Its my 1st ssd btw so i dont want to have a problematic hardware.

My budget is around RM350 only. Intel 520 is way to expensive for me.
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.

Oh okay thanks. I will stick with Samsung 830/Intel 330/Crucial m4. Will pick 1 of them depends on the price.

Waiting for my Samsung 830 128GB now. Hopefully arrived tomorrow.

Bought from bettle_larvae. But need to pre-order though. RM340 including postage to my place. I think he offer the best price here. Now he selling vertex 4 @ RM329. You can pm him, maybe he can give u more best price.

I thought Samsung cover 3 years warranty. Will ask him about this later.

Oic. Well, as long the warranty is there then its okay.
Gud thing i cancel my order from newegg, now samsung 830 price there @ $119.99=RM372..

Yeah, but still there's small chance you will get a faulty unit. Hopefully mine works as usual & can last long enough.

You can use the desktop upgrade kit, if it come wit ur ssd. But i prefer clean install though, cos i think it will give u better performance.
