what is the cheapest 128GB SSD comes with 5yr warranty?

I can only think of Plextor M5 Pro 128GB, RM444. Intel 520 Series 120GB at RM439 also can consider if you still can find it. smile.gif

is it worth the price (rm130++ upside as compare to m5s) for the additional 2yr warranty? what do u think hmm.gif

From my own personal point of view, I find it hard to justify paying an extra ~ RM130 for the additional 2 years warranty, or perhaps slightly better performance only. I prefer to just go for the cheapest one. smile.gif

Then these SATA mobo is more expensive?

SATA is now a common standard with all modern motherboards. Even cheaper Intel H61 boards around RM1xx is also SATA capable, but they're only SATA 2 capable.

However, to fully utilize the SATA 3 capability of most modern SSDs, you're advised to at least go with boards which is also SATA 3 capable. Most B75/85 boards have SATA 3 ports.

Do you happen to know this Liteon S900 is using what controller? I see the specs, it is like a mix between M5 Pro and M6S.

i did some digging and found this: http://notebookspec.com/lite-on-s900-256gb-review/277643/

the controller is the same as m6s (Marvell 88SS9188). m5pro xtreme is Marvell 88SS9187.

edit: this is another site. http://www.myce.com/news/specifications-an...revealed-74762/

Nice, it is essentially a cheaper version of the M6S but with higher IOPS. Actually what does IOPS means?
