well for 60gb i have personally have used and would suggest are still going for close to that $37 mark for that 120gb UV400Are 60GB drives even cheaper?
Would you let me know what the situation is on the used market, eBay and what not, wisdom of buying a 60GB for even cheaper of possible?
nothing wrong with buying used, SSD's i have gotten a few from members here and 3-4 from G@dMan. the important thing is to ask the person if they will run SSD-Life on the drive and provide a SS for you to see drive life and SMART info.Mmmm... If there is one thing I would not buy used is a ssd/hdd
+1I buy used ssds all the time. Mainly for benching drives but I have one in my home server and one in my daily driver. As long as you have a good backup plan in place there is not a lot of risk.
yea never looked into the ECO2 but i can speak to the ECO3 labled that way for newegg i forget what mushkins label is for it. i think the same drive just non_eco name might have a longer warranty. since C6 didnt say how they would be used, i considered most of what people do. that is youtube, websurfing since he was asking about 60gb driver, doesnt like a computer someone might use for gaming on. as you wouldnt be able to fit to many game on there much less the larger ones nearing 30gb.I was more talking the Force LS being a couple years old. The ECO2 did come out 3/2015. The other drive, 12/2014. I never heard of the last one and would check up on that one as far as the controller and NAND used.
yea i should have looked at that zion drive, maybe im still on the old stuff i heard about ocz. namely from the agility 2/vertex 2 days with them dieing alot or having other issues. i guess i feel lucky to have never had a FW update bork a drive or have one check out early. though most of my drives after being written to once just get read from. that is unless there is a game update but now i got that 750 from you, thats where all my games are now. the 5yr warranty is hard to beat for the $7 more that is for sure. as you dont know what drive you might get in the future from them when it dies. just like the ocz powerstream i had, wanted to clean it out one day. opened it up noticed buldging caps on the main side. explained all that to OCZ in the rma process, they said no problem, send us the power supply. they sent some 550watt modular unit, still got it sitting in a box somewhere. might not be a bad unit but not what i was considering a good replacement as i think the internals of the modular unit were from a less manufacture. cant be to choosy though, they did replace the power supply under its 5yr warranty, which was going to be up in a few months. back then a power supply with a 5yr warranty was unheard of unless you got a PC Power & Cooling power supply. dont think it was to many years after the powerstream 520w that ocz bought PC Power & Cooling.Of course you wouldn't notice the drive web surfing or watching youtube. THe drive wouldn't be in use....... but perhaps that was your point there. If he is looking to save a few bucks, I would go with the ECO2/3 being the newest and most known. Otherwise, if I had a choice, I would prefer the newly released Trion 150. It has a 5 year warranty (worth the $7 for 2 years more to me) and also has the Shield protection which cross ships a replacement. Best warranty in the biz there on the OCZ (details found in our review on the front page ) and pretty darn quick for a 'budget' drive.
Ps3 had an ssd in ot???
You sure it was an ssd? When the ps3 came out, ssds weren't exactly cheap or common...
I think you either bought it used and someone upgraded, or you are mistaking a 2.5" HDD for am ssd.
