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)? I do not own a SSD. I have considered buying an Intel series SSD because of the reliable reviews I've witnessed.

2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD
(price, performance, brand, other)? Price per performance definitely. Some manufacturers of all types of hardware sometimes get it right or wrong.

P.S. I can't afford an SSD on my own. This would be the best holiday gift EVERRR!

1. I don't own an SSD card at the moment but Intel does have it draw as I have an i5 Intel chipset and I'm very pleased with the performance, which is why Intel would be my first look
2. Performance would be the first thing I look at but it would have to be good value for money, got to really do my research when buying components for my PC, make sure I don't over pay for yesterday's technology

Thank you

128GB Crucial M4

I would really like to get a 2nd SSD, either Intel, Samsung, or another Crucial M4.

2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD

Quality/Performance is my main criteria.

I'm currently debating whether to buy an Intel 520 series or an Corsair Force GT. Leaning more towarsd the Intel 520 because of that sexy Speed Demon sticker.
2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD
(price, performance, brand, other)?
When buying an SSD, performance is key. Why else would one spend $100+ for an 120gb drive?

I've got a 128GB Kingston HyperX. It wasn't my choice though, I honestly would have bought Intel or Samsung depending on the price point due to better performance.

2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD

For me it's price & performance. Brand is no issue, if it performs very well and hits the right price range, I'd pick it up.

1. No I currently do not own a SSD, been wanting one but never bought one
2. Probably the main thing for me in a SSD is reliability and longevity! After that performance.

1. Nope.

2. Price/Performance Ratio.
