Memory, Samsung, or other)?
I do not currently own an SSD but it is the next item on my list when I do buy my next thing whenever that is... Intel and Crucial are the brands I'm looking at currently


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

Price for performance and capacity. I need larger capacity drives for as low cost as possible but prefer to not sacrifice on the performance.

 

Good Luck everyone.

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 own no SSD. But plan to add Samsung 830series 128GB (possibly) drive in near future.

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

Price - performance ratio must be good.
Also reliability of controller does matter.

1. Don't own one just yet due to the high costs of such hardware. Will consider one from Samsung, OCZ or Intel if I want to buy one.smile.gif

2. I look for the best price to performance ratio.biggrin.gif

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'm currently using a Crucial m4 and I've been happy with its performance. I will probably not buy any SSDs, though my gf may be in the market for one. If I we're to recommend one, it would be Crucial, Samsung, SanDisk, or Intel.

2. What is the most important consideration you make when you purchase an SSD (price, performance, brand, other)?
Reliability would be the number one priority. I would consider price second since most SSDs are quick enough to make any performance differences negligible for my uses.

1. currently own 2 ocz vertex 2 60gb in raid 0 bought from canada computers, got it shipped to kenya paid 90 cad $, In the future, I would like to get an intel since it will match my processor, I like when my hardware matches e.g. same motherboard, video card, keyboard and mouse brand, colors etc.

2. I like to upgrade to latest hardware as its exciting and makes things flow smooter on the pc smile.gif

thanks to the ocn community and Intel for their great giveaways, it really gives hope to people leaving in 3rd world countries who cant or have to wait a long time to get their hands on some good hardware smile.gif

I don't currently own an SSD, but I was considering purchasing a Samsung or an intel for better performance.

Brand and reliability are most important
