Hello again, my new post, now about SSD
I was reading a bit on the forum about SSDs and notice that most of the people recommending Intel or Crucial, but i cant understand why, and how do u choose it guys?
im totally n00b in SSD and its going to be my 1st SSD ever.
as far as i see all SSD have 4 parameters:
1) Capacity
2) Read speed
3) Write speed
4) price
do i missing something? as for example here we have:
1. OCZ Agility 3 240GB
max. 500 MB/s write
max. 525 MB/s read
price 224,90 euro
and
2. Crucial m4 SSD 256GB
max. 260 MB/s write <---- Speed in twice lower for nearly the same price??!!
max. 500 MB/s read
price 210.90 euro
3. Intel 520 Series 240GB OEM-Edition
max. 520 MB/s write
max. 550 MB/s read
price: 289.9 euro <--- plus 60 euro for the same specs as OCZ
so how come Crucial and intel are the best if acording to the specs over price they are loosing?
i believe there should be some other point or parameter which im missing but have to take on consideration? what is it? and by which specs should i choose SSD? if read/write speed is not the most important?
Thnx in advance
