Cheaper than 850 pro how much?

haha nice doing upgrades to your rig eh?

50 plus i think

heck yeah

i7 4790k
msi z97 gaming 7
2 pieces 4 gig ram
ssd 250gb

sweet man

if you have extras i suggest you add more ram (like 32gb) and use ram disk and cache. personally, for my use cases i 'feel' better system responsiveness compared to bare ssd-only.

guys kingston v300 120gb ok or not?

no it's not ok. if you haven't done research even on this single option, i really suggest you do so. although it might be fine for people who are getting their first ssd because of the massive performance improvements over hdd, i still think it's wiser to get others than v300 for your money.

in short, when there are a lot of options using sync nand flash, skip async nand. even though the drive performance is subject to mainly controller, imo there is no need to challenge physical differences between these two types of nand, and still go for the much slower option. (unless you are really having no choice)

you can consider liteon s900, transcend ssd370, or toshiba q series pro at 120gb range. as of now, know that the actual sweet spot is 240gb range.

hi guys,

crucial m500 240gb vs liteon s900 240gb

which better in terms of reliability and performance ?

both are same price.

guys ur old SSD still ok? mine already >2 years

they are the same imo. my preference is liteon s900 because it's newer.

yes, for my drives that are more than 2 years old, they are still 100% good health lol!

100?? lol really, my <1year imac already 9+ haha

yeah. my ocz vertex 4 (256gb), plextor m5pro xtreme (512gb), and plextor m5m (256gb) are all 2 years+ old.

it depends on usage actually. i think if you apply the common ssd optimizations, tips and tricks found on the first page of this thread, it's very likely your ssd can survive for quite some times.

furthermore, i download my stuff into hdd. i also use ram cache and ram disk.

Good afternoon, i just installed a lite-on ssd to my system but i am not feeling any great speed boost at all. Is it normal?

boot OS need more than 10sec? transferring files slow?

wah ur OCZ still alive?

Is your previous drive a SSD? You won't feel the difference switching brands.

iinm the boot time is longer than 10 sec. Haven't tried file transfer yet.

Nope, was using a WD Green previously.

Is it just me? I've upgraded my ram to 8 gb as well.

impossible. i'm using 128gb plextor m6s

List your PC spec and see. OS Win7 or Win8.1?

Intel G2020
Asrock H71M-DGS
Team Elite 4gb 1600 x2
Lite-on 256 SSD
Asus Nvidia GeForce 650Ti Boost 2gb
Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit
