The OCZ Vector is getting excellent reviews too. $289 for 256GB.
I've heard that OCZ should be avoided, wish I had a better reference, but the guy (tech guy at Centrecom) said go with Intel ... I mentioned Samsung, he said, yes, either of those two, but NOT OCZ. In fact he told my friend that OCZ was so bad that he would de-friend him if he chose one.
apparently the first few OCZ models were crap, but then so were the first few models of most other brands....lack of TRIM support, firmware bugs. from what i've read this hasn't been a problem in recent years, including the OCZ Vertex 3 and the OCZ Vector model I mentioned. I certainly hope so, I just bought a 256GB OCZ Vector to replace the 128GB Patriot Torqx in my main machine (haven't got around to it yet, have been stufffing around with my new asus notebook instead) craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
