I was thinking about getting this; however, the bad reviews worries me 
. Most people claims that it was working for quite awhile. Then, ssd just die.

This will be my 3rd SSD drive, last 2 were OCZ drives and they both went exactly as you are stating. Last one was still under warranty from OCZ, but being fed up with OCZ drives constantly going bad on me.. It got monkey stomped.
Hoping this one last's longer, so far so good.

Look into one with a marvell controller. The plextor SSD's are fantastic. I am running one and have had zero issues. The latest firmware updates the garbage collection to be even more efficient

Nabbed one of these from newegg and a silverstone SATA III USB3 enclosure until I get home and can use it full time..
$4 cheaper than amazon shipped with prime, still (APO FTL).

Plugged mine into my SATA 6gb port for a quick bench, and it performed prettymuch spot on with every review I saw for it. ~520-560mb/s
Blazingly fast drive. Can't wait to get home and play with it

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...3112-_-EMC-053112-Index-_-SSD-_-20226236-L05B
theres no excuse not to get a ssd now..... but the real question is do i get a second one to go along with the pretty much identical Adata s510 i bought and do some raid!

Don't forget the 240g for only $209 too! I love watching the prices of these things keep going down to where I can almost afford one.

I'm scared to purchase it because people have said that it fails eventually..

That's what warranties are for. I believe the prior issues were resolved with a firmware update.
Thats not a valid answer..I don't want to not be able to use my computer because my SSD went kaput...and lets not forget about re-imaging..
Thats the main reason I still havn't gone to a SSD. There are still too many questions about the lower end ones (IE the ones I can afford). The only major answer I see online is "Intel's are great" then it gets a bit fuzzy.
Still, thats a damn good price. ALMOST worth the risk, but I think I'd pay a little more and wait for a Crucial M4 to go on sale (I hear they are good).

I'm going to take the plunge and buy one.
Mushkin lives in my state! I'm pretty sure the RMA process is like a lot faster that way! Plus I know where they live, so if they fvck up, I'm eggin them
