How's Kingston SSDNOW (V+200) 120GB? Seems like not much info on this. The price is pretty good at Fuwell ($218).

I just need a SSD that's reliable. Not too concerned about the writespeed. Budget about $220?

 

[hpv500]

too many brands and models out there. so confusing :S

can any expert pick one from these 3 choices to put in a mbp?
Crucial M4 128gb $249
AData XPG SX900 128gb $259
Intel 520 120gb $255

tanks tanks

i'm looking at the above as well with Plextor M2S/M3 also....

out of the 4...wat r the warranty and reliability so far? using it with Asrock 890GX (SATA3)

PS: after reading thru, am zooming in on Intel 520 120gb and Adata SX900 128GB....dilemma...

[adrianlee]

any review on samsung 830 ssd?

[jownsftw]

guys, got a dilemma here. please help

Currently got one HWZ bro can get crucial m4 128gb at $210 SGD for me.

Then got another bro, got extra SSD to sell, cos buy 2x then decide to only use 1 instead. He say only a few days old. He willing to price match at $210 SGD.

So basically, it's no local warranty(Us warranty) vs local warranty(few days old set)

 

[hpv500]

take the few days old set lo....if u dun wan...let me know the contact...

 

[Uncle_Sams]

Take the one with the local warranty...

 

[Yo2020]

Take the one with the local warranty...

agreed.

i have a question
If say we buy a 64gb fast SD card, vs a ssd harddisk, can we install windows7 on 64gb sd card, will it be faster than ssd?

the normal fast sd card is like 15-30MB/s, the top one is like 100MB/s (cost more than ssd!). ssd can b much faster like 500MB/s.

But he say he don't have the receipt anymore. For RMA need receipt?

Aiya got other people bid $230 riaos.

Don't bother already. Think shall just buy the amazon set

Check the other thread - may be cheaper to buy from newegg.com if you do so within the next 48hrs or lesser.

i would rather get it locally with 3 year fuss free warranty if u are getting at the current amazon price. difference of less than $40.
