Ok I never really payed much attention on SSD but I decided I want to try it out with my laptop.
The laptop is an HP 8560W and it supports SATA 3 speeds, primarily I'm looking for a reliable drive (as fast as possible of course but if it doesn't work, speeds mean nothing).
I prefer the 120GB/128GB drives, 64GB wouldn't be enough and over 120GB is just too expensive.
So what would everyone recommend I should get? I myself have been leaning towards the Crucial M4 128GB, but I still haven't decided.
Other options are: Corsair F3 120GB, Patriot Pyro 120 GB, and the Vertex 3 drives but I heard horrible things about them, and as last I thought of the Intel 520 120GB which is slightly more expensive but I wouldn't mind if it's better than the M4.
Greatly appreciate any help/recommendation.
