Win an Intel 520 Series SSD! - Page 2  

post #11 of 1974
1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future?
I currently own one Intel 320 series in my laptop. Haven't had it for too long but so far I'm loving it.

2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you considering and why (price, performance, reliability, brand, etc.)?
Intel, because so far my other Intel drive has been performing well with no issues.

3) How often do you purchase a new PC (every 12 months or less, every 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?
I don't really purchase full computers that much anymore. I do incremental upgrades every 6 months - 2 years.

1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future? No I don't own a SSD. Yes I have 5 year old hdd's in my computer which is keeping it slow!

2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you considering and why (price, performance, reliability, brand, etc.)? I've heard OCZ is pretty good all around (price to performance to size ratio) It also seems as though they have a very wide range of ssd's to choose from!

3) How often do you purchase a new PC (every 12 months or less, every 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, over 3 years)? I'd like to keep it under 5 years for a total new one. As far as parts goes every 2 years maybe?

4) (For Canadian Residents) What is 125 plus 45 divided by 3 minus 13? Amurrica! I'm going to take a shot at this and say maple?

1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future?
Yes, it's outdated and getting really slow even with Windows properly optimized for SSD use. D:

Was planning on buying a new one when I got more money.

2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you considering and why (price, performance, reliability, brand, etc.)?
Crucial, mostly for reliability and the good experiences.

3) How often do you purchase a new PC (every 12 months or less, every 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?
2-3 years

1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future?

No, but I plan to get one as soon as I can, the performence benifet is very nice, I hear.

2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you considering and why (price, performance, reliability, brand, etc.)?

Intel, my friend swears by them for reliability and general speed and his brand loyalty has rubbed off on me...

3) How often do you purchase a new PC (every 12 months or less, every 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?

Not very often, I like building them, but it is something I don't get to expirence very often. I love my current rig. (2 - 3 years shall we say)

4) (For Canadian Residents) What is 125 plus 45 divided by 3 minus 13?

127 wheee.gif (shoot me If i get that wrong)...

Thanks for the chance, OCN!

1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future? I sure do! Intel 510 120GB. It's pretty full, so more than likely I'll be purchasing another later this year. Maybe in the summer.

2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you considering and why (price, performance, reliability, brand, etc.)? I almost bought the Crucial m4, but went with Intel due to reliability. I have had 0 issues. I never have issues with Intel products.

3) How often do you purchase a new PC (every 12 months or less, every 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, over 3 years)? I purchase new PC components constantly. A full rebuild? All at one time? Not sure. Maybe once every 4 years or so. Usually, I just upgrade continuously.

4) (For Canadian Residents) What is 125 plus 45 divided by 3 minus 13? I'm glad I'm not Canadian, so I don't have to answer and potentially look foolish.

1) Do you currently own an SSD? Are you planning on purchasing one or more in the near future?

Yes, Crucial M4 64GB for my sig rig and a G.Skill Pheonix Pro 128GB for my laptop

2) If you’re planning on purchasing an SSD, which brand(s) are you considering and why (price, performance, reliability, brand, etc.)?

Crucial, Intel, Kingston, Samsung Would purchase these brands for reliably.

3) How often do you purchase a new PC (every 12 months or less, every 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?

Seems as though I like to keep with things so I will usually upgrade at least every couple years. At bare minimum upgrade video cards.
