Which SSD should I buy?
« on: April 26, 2010, 07:30:58 PM »
OCZ Vertex 30gb (not turbo)-$105 or Intel x25-v 40GB -$113

Will be installing it for a OS boot drive Win7 ultimate with TRIM.

THANKS!

bud, the price of that one is also more then both the other ones put together.

i personally think the OCZ one (even though its 10gb less) would be a better deal in the long run.
