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)?
yes 3, 128gb crucial m4, 64gb ocz agility 2 and 120gb patriot pyro. i dont think i need anymore, maybe another m4 to raid them, but the only one i would consider buying right now is really the samsung
2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD (price, performance, brand, other)?
i bought the patriot pyro for $75 after a mail in rebate so that was price, if it wasnt so cheap i wouldnt have bought it. i got the m4 because i wanted my important programs and data on a solid reliable ssd. i got the agility a couple years ago for what was a really decent price back then. with all the issues with my buddies agility 3's i wont be buying ocz again
3. How often do you purchase a new PC (less than a 1 year, 1-2 years, 2-3 years, over 3 years)?
when i need to, but i get new parts all the time so its a continual upgrade, but mobo and proc every 2 years or so
4. Do you prefer to build your own PC or buy a branded system (Build your own or Buy a branded system)?
ALWAYS BUILD
5. How important do you feel an SSD is to system performance? (extremely important, pretty important, Not very important, no impact on performance)
its the most noticeable improvement. spinning disks are really the biggest bottleneck, so extremely
