Nope, was using a WD Green previously.

well, i was hoping for a noticable speed bump when i upgraded my system with an ssd and additional ram.
what option do i have? upgrade my mobo?

well tbh, the sata 2 port really holding you back.. your ssd should give double the speed especially the read speed of your current setup.. even a good hdd can give 150 - 190mb/s of read speed.. by just upgraded to 270mb/s of read speed, the speed gain is insignificant. since you already have a ssd, why not just get a mobo that can support sata 3 to fully utilize the ssd performance.. thumbup.gif

hi guys which is better...

my maximum budget is rm300..

LITE-ON 900S 128GB (M5PRO) 92K/82K 540/330 RM240

KINGSTON HYPER X 120G 20K/60K 555/510 RM275

TRANSCEND 370 128GB 75K/75K 570/470 RM219

PLEXTOR M6S 128GB 88K/75K 520/300 RM289

btw in my mind is transcend 370... btw my pc will bottleneck.. since still using SATA 3Gbps port..

thx..

please be noted that transcend ssd370 128gb version have write speed kinda low.. only at 170mb/s.. 470mb/s write is only for 512gb and 1tb version. i think the best is lite-on 900s 128gb.

hi,

any lite-on s900 users here? where do you claim your warranty if needed to? is there a lite-on warranty center here in KL?

im thinking to get 1 from IPMART but the warranty only 1 year. sufficient enough? or transcend 370 series is better? price about the same but 3 yrs warranty

i understand SSD is more reliable compared to HDD but..hard to say right...
*
well i vote for longer warranty.. performance different in normal pc usage does not matter..

Is it still reliable/worth to have RAID0 SSD nowadays? Or have single SSD that saturated SATA3 full speed out there?

Thinking to have 2x120GB cheapo SSD..like L9S or M6S.

in term of raw performance, RAID 0 are awesome. but for general usage/gaming, performance different is negligible. if you already have 2 identical ssd, for the sake of science no prob go with RAID 0. indeed RAID 0 will increase risk of data losses, but it still far less compared to standard HDD.

however, 2x120GB SSD in RAID 0 are not recommended IMO. might as well go with single 256GB SSD. will give you better price/size.
