Sata 3 SSD: Performance vs. Durability

I'm thinking about getting a SATA 3 SSD for OS + a little extra so about 120GB I had imagined.

In addition, I have looked at the following drives:

- OCZ Vertex 3 Series 120 GB
- Corsair Force Series 3 120 GB
- Crucial M4 128 GB
- Intel 510 Series 120 GB

What I've read me to is Vertex 3 and Force 3 is incredibly fast, but there is nothing but problems with them.

While the M4 and the Intel 510 is slower but they have no problems.

So my question is: What should I choose, it is hope for the fast, or do I have to engage myself to buy a slow drive?

Thank you and Sincerely HrCookie

The "Durability" problems you are talking about, should be about the same for them all...but corsair stands behind their products so no worries..so i would go for speed

yes. you should get that. I'm gonna get it

I have the M4 Crucial, but in 256GB. Very fast compared to my old RAIDed raptors. If you are upgrading from a mechanical hard drive, I doubt you would be able to tell the difference between any SSD you use.

The crucial also seems to fare very well with general usage benchmarks, and comes out on top in Vantage (not including Revodrive)
