Hello.

I'm looking to replace a HDD with an 2.5" SSD. This system does not have Trim available so I need an SSD that has excellent GC. I'm looking for 90-120GB "ish". It can be Sata Rev. 2.0 or Rev. 3.0.

I've only bought an SSD once, so I am by no means a pro when it comes to what controllers provide the best GC, though I know all do in some form or another. A drive that takes advantage of the great SSD pricing going on right now would be great.

Thanks!
 
The SSD's with Marvell controllers so do fine. Also check out the Samsung.
 
SF doesn't have the best GC in a traditional sense. SF does almost all it's GC during writes, but it's not a bad option. If you can find a good deal on a SF that isn't async for not much more money, I'd get that.
 
Alight, I'll hold off on that drive. Maybe some others will come down in price in the next few weeks.
