c300 or wait it out longer?

[chronic9]

thinking of selling my intel 80gig G2s and buying one c300 128gig instead... space is not an issue, the SATA3 speeds are awesome on those drives. and i am debating between waiting, and getting less $$ from selling my G2s.

anything new coming out in a few weeks thats going to be better then a c300 drive?

I'm still worried about those since Anand had some reliability issues. Crucial supposedly fixed them but I'd wait a while on them so that there's more data available.

I was all about this drive until I read Anand's thoughts about the drive reaching a state where performance can never be restored to that of a new drive. That article was several months old, so I'm not sure if that has been corrected in a newer firmware.

Work just bought me a 64GB C300 with firmware 0002, so we'll see. If it craps out, no loss to me.

I had considered the same thing but I don't have SATA3 to support it.

When Intel goes with SATA3 I'll reevaluate the drives at that time.
