I might be picking up my first SSD in a week or two (have never even seen one used in person before) and I'm hoping for some advice. My budget is pretty low unfortunately (around $100) so I'm kind of limited.
Right now I'm looking at
OCZ Vertex 3 60GB
or
Corsair Force Series 3 90GB
I know that the Vertex uses a better NAND type (Synchronous vs Asynchronous) but I'm a little worried that 60GB won't give me space for anything else on the drive after I throw on Windows 7 64-bit. I don't necessarily need to store a bunch of things (or why would I even bother with looking at a 60GB drive), but would like to make sure I can at least fit whatever game I play most at the time (I tend to only play one at a time before switching to another, currently is SW:ToR).
Should I go for the larger drive to make sure I have space? Or is 60GB actually fine after cleaning up all the useless stuff like reducing page file size, hiberfil.sys, etc. that I'd be better off with the faster 60GB?
Also feel free to mention other drives if they're around $100 (120 probably max, not including shipping to Ontario)
Thanks
