Hi,
Sorry for posting another SSD thread. I've watched here for a bit and am just not seeing the answers that I need.
Sorry for posting another SSD thread. I've watched here for a bit and am just not seeing the answers that I need.
- Sandforce vs Marvell: Is Sandforce not stable enough for a OS SSD? Or is that hubub with the new driver fixes? I'm leaning toward Sandforce - particularly the Corsair Force GT due to it's excellent reviews. I know Sandforce had a fix and most of it's issues are gone. Other option is something more "stable" like a Crucial M4. The Corsair has some solid reviews - better than crucial m4.
- Size: Stuck between 120gb and 240gb. I plan on using it for OS and games. Is it worth the $ to get 240gb, or should I try to manage my usage better and only have 3-4 games on the SSD at a time?
- Compatibility Issues: Would I have any compatibility issues with either of the SSDs above and my mobo? Do I need to flash the Bios? I have an old mobo (P5Q Deluxe) which only has SATA 2 - which means I'll have gimped speeds, but that's ok. I'm potentially going to upgrade soon so that could be a non-issue.
