Had 2 OZC Vertex failures here with colleagues that bought them on ebuyer offers - with SSD it is complete failure to, your not recovering anything.. still on my Corsair F40.. very very fast and fingers crossed is still going strong.

I can't see the extra 10GB is worth it, nor are the disk speeds going to have a massive effect in my XS35GT build...but I defer to superior knowledge in these matters. For pure HTPC frontends the cheapest SSD is fine. I use a OCZ Onyx in mine.

Well, I missed out on the OCZ deal anyway. Not to mention Newegg raised prices on about half of the components on my wish list effective today. My fault for not pulling the trigger.
So now I'm back to waiting for the deals to come back! |
