    Buying SSD


    Agree good advice, this stuff is obsolete as soon as its driven off the shelf
    to borrow a car analogy.

    But with that logic you will never buy anything. Even the bread you buy is most likely from yesterday or even older - unless you live in France and have a bakery around the corner.

    I recently changed my HD for an SSD, I bought OCZ 240GB (Part of Toshiba) so far very pleased with the performance. As for reliabilty only been installed about a week, so fingers crossed.

    I own a few OCZs. Except for one they have all held up. And the defunct one was replaced by OCZ. It is sitting on the shelf since appr. 6 months - together with another one (Crucial). What do you do with surplus SSDs. All my systems already run on SSDs.

    Hi,

    My old SATA II OCZ is still rated at 100% after 8 years of use.
    For what it's worth, you should see the box and packaging that came in. Like a piece of jewelry. *Wink

    Cheers, *Wink

    Not really bread is consumed so once eaten its gone, computers will last forever.

    Not really, just one more reason to get a best buy now and not to dwell on brands etc.
