which SSD's to buy

[Jacob.xray]

looking at either two intel 520GB 120GB SSD's in raid 0 or two Corsair force GT 120GB SSD's in raid 0 and don't know which one to choice. basically which one would out perform the other

Why use raid 0? You loose TRIM support. Getting a 256 SSD would be smarter.

I's Go for, as psyduck170 said, a 256 GB Intel 520 SSD - The Speed difference between this and Raid 0 Will not be that much

If you have the money, go for the Intel, no doubt. Best reliability testing around, and they also produce the fastest drive; it's a win win.

I have two SSDs hooked up in RAID0, and honestly, there's NO difference. If anything, boot-up now takes longer because my darn motherboard likes to tell me, with a nice 5 second screen print, that I am in fact using RAID0.

/sigh

so go with a bigger drive so i can have trim and it will be better

 

[Josh Weston]

I'd say that was your best bet, yeah. If I could trade now, I would.

Intel 240GB 520 series.

If the speed increase is anything like what i've experienced on my samsung 830 256Gb then the intel (which is supposedly better but more expensive) then go intel as now my pc boots faster than my monitor can wake up from standby lol.

Seriously impressed by ssd's nowardays, just glad i waited till the prices were appropriate.
