I´m a ssd noob. however I´m putting together a system, based on
DFI LP MI P55-T36 MICRO-ITX board / intel i5 / 4gb ram. I´m kind of on a tight budget, since i allready spend alot for a monitor and rest of the system, so I´m looking at these 2 ssds.
Ozc Vertex 2e 60gb (105€)
intel x25-m 80gb (160€)
I´m currently using a 74gb raptor setup for OS and database, so capacity wise any of these 2 is good enough for me.
If performance is similar i would like to go with the Vertex to save some bucks
if anyone has experienced with these harddrives, i would appreciate some advice.
thanks

Im using a vertex 60gb right. I think it has the best bang (speed/price/capacity) for your dollar at the moment.

I have the intel 80gb, love it. It isn't the fastest SSD on the market by any means, but it runs housekeeping in like 70-90 seconds, updates quickly, and it's a reliable brand name imo. FWIW, I've had it for ~5 months. |

yea thanks so far. i just registered since i didn´t have an account on Teamliquid. feels kind of dumb to make my first post asking for advice. i also posted it in the computer technical help on 2+2 and somebody advised me to go with the OCZ vertex. |

i would go with the vertex 2 since the sandforce controller it has is pretty good.
also, i would not recommend getting an ssd unless you are running windows 7 since that is the only version that supports a ssd feature called TRIM... which does housekeeping on the ssd

i would recommend to read that super long article to educate yourself on the in's and out's of ssd's |
