OK, I have a Dell XPS laptop which I bought 2 years ago. It is running SATA 2. I have tested it with my friend's Sata 3 SSD and it was backward compatible.
Now, the HDD starts to make a bit of noise and so I want to upgrade it to SSD. I am looking for something 240gb, one which performs fairly well, less chance to break down (reliable brand) or if break down, easy to warranty in Malaysia.
Corsair Force GS 7mm 240GB = RM699
Kingston Hyper X 240GB = RM649
Intel 520 Series 240GB = RM769
Plextor M5S 240GB = RM599
Plextor M5 Pro 240GB = RM849
Sandisk Ultra Plus 256GB = RM599
Which is recommended brand?

QUOTE(faisal_smks03 @ May 3 2013, 07:29 PM) Can also consider Intel 335 240gb ~RM569 Problem is the shop I frequent does not have it. I am actually bringing things back to change with them, top up some money to get a SSD. That's why I cannot go to another shop to buy, else I would have. |
