1. Do you currently own an SSD and are you planning on purchasing one in the near future? If so, which brands are you considering (Intel, OCZ, Crucial, Kingston, Patriot Memory, Samsung, or other)?

No, I do not own any at the moment. Due to price decreasing, I am considering of purchasing one. Sadly, it is still expensive for me, so unless price drops some more, I will continue to wait.

2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD (price, performance, brand, other)?

Reliability. Despite some ssd are very fast, they have other problems such as blue screen of death during certain times. I personally do not want an ssd that may cause some problems.

3. How often do you purchase a new PC (less than a 1 year, 1-2 years, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?

Used to be around 1 year, but when I got the my current rig (i7 920),. I am very satisfied with it, so it is currently going +2 years.

4. Do you prefer to build your own PC or buy a branded system (Build your own or Buy a branded system)?

Build own. I would like to choose good parts into a single computer.

5. How important do you feel an SSD is to system performance? (extremely important, pretty important, Not very important, no impact on performance)

Extremely important.

1. Do you currently own an SSD and are you planning on purchasing one in the near future? If so, which brands are you considering (Intel, OCZ, Crucial, Kingston, Patriot Memory, Samsung, or other)?

Of course I own one! I'm thinking about getting either a new OCZ or Intel one soon.

2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD (price, performance, brand, other)?

The price (I'm a broke college student)

3. How often do you purchase a new PC (less than a 1 year, 1-2 years, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?

I don't really purchase a new PC I upgrade over time typically every 6 months.

4. Do you prefer to build your own PC or buy a branded system (Build your own or Buy a branded system)?

Build my own!

5. How important do you feel an SSD is to system performance? (extremely important, pretty important, Not very important, no impact on performance)

It is extremely important. I used to think they were just over hyped until I tried one myself. They are definitely performance boosters.
