I am in the market for a 120 to 128 GB SSD drive for my video editing computer. I think I like the specs/reviews for two and need help in choosing one. The link has both on the same link. The Corsair CSSD-F120GB2-BRKT or the Intel SSDSA2MH-120G2K5.

Any suggestions or maybe there is a better performing one at the same price point.

Intel.

I would choose the Vertex 3 (non-pro)

The best SSDs right now in that size are the 120GB Intel X25-M or the 128GB Crucial C300. The C300 should have a new model this month, and the Intel 320 series is rumored to be released in April. I just mention that in case you would be distressed by buying something now and then having a new model released. But there is nothing wrong with the current Intel and Crucial models.

Just going by the intel and crucial reviews on newegg, they happen to have the lowest % of 1-star reviews which might suggest that they're less prone to failure.

The Vertex 3 looks like it might be worth waiting for. As I was looking around while doing some research, I found a few PCI SSD drives. They seem to have pretty fast read/write times. This would be good for me, since I am using all 6 of the SATA ports on my motherboard. Are these as good as the advertising claims?
