Which SSD?

[Will013]

Having a hard time finding a 128GB SSD to go with. The ones I'm looking at atm are:

Crucial M4
Samsung 840 (not pro)
OCZ Vertex 4
Sandisk Extreme

Any opinions? Sandisk would be the cheapest, followed by the 840, M4 and Vertex 4 I believe.

Cheers

Crucial M4

Any of those are fine choices. I probably wouldn't get the 840 NON Pro, but any of the others is fine.

no corsair performance pro ?thought that would have been up there

Intel 520 for £80, just bought one myself, came as a bare drive sealed in an anti-static bag and oem box.

Don't worry about b-grade, still carries balance of intel 5 year warranty.

Why is that? Because of the NAND stuff or whatever it's called? Thanks everyone for the help so far

SanDisk Exterme

Go with any, bar the non pro 840, just look on hotukdeals to whichever comes up on offer.

Sounds good, but out of stock now... So what's the next choice?

Alternatively, these are fairly good performers, both with 5 year warranties:

If you're on a budget, the SanDisk Extreme and Sammy 840 are supposed to be really good.

(840 might come with £15 cashback on Scan)

i went m4 and have been very happy with the two i purchased.

[Mehta23]

Yeah, m4 is supposed to be really good. Too bad they were too expensive for me :'(

[RhysCrawford]

I am having m4..It rocks

Non pro 840 uses 3 bit per cell flash which makes a lot of people nervous, but so far I haven't seen any real evidence of problems.
