So your buddy comes to you and says he wants a 1 TB SSD for a gaming rig...and you think terrific now he can infect his machine with malware even faster....:rolleyes:

With Samsung having the 840 slowdown bug I am leaning away from them.
Right now I am thinking the Crucial MX200 would be my first recommendation but the Mushkin Reactor or Sandisk sound good also. Sandisk has the Ultra 2 and the Extreme and I just don't know enough about those.

Just try go get some feedback.
Thanks
 
What's your budget and what exactly are you looking for? Performance? Cost savings? Best bang-for-buck?
 
If your friend has the room in his chassis, I'd recommend getting a 240-256GB for primary/boot (crucial MX100/BX100) and a 960GB-1TB for games/storage (Mushkin Reactor/BX100). Should be able to push the upper limits of his budget and make that work.

I myself own a Samsung 256gig 830 Pro and a Crucial M500 480gig, but I have not found many reviews on the Mushkin Reactor or feedback on the Crucial BX vs MX drives.

My buddy is setting aside tax refund money to build a new gaming rig but he has not said what he's total budget is. I am assuming that if he's willing to spend the money on 1 TB SSD then he must be willing to open the checkbook. Guess I just need to pick his brain on what exactly he's aiming for.

The Mushkin and new Crucial drives do sound like good candidates.
