P8Z77 V-PRO SSD Compatibility?

shokan · Jun 20, 2013

I plugged in the manufacturer numbers listed on the Asus compatibility chart for P8Z77 V-Pro at TigerDirect.ca and all of them came up no result. How can I find out what solid state drive in the 250-300G range would definitely be OK with the board?

Here are Asus's #s for the SSDs:

SATA SSD
Intel
Intel SSD-X25-M-80GB

Kingston
Kingston SNVP325-S2

MemoRight
MemoRight MR25.2-064S

Transcend
Transcend TS32GSSD25S-M

SATA 6G SSD
Corsair
CSSD-F120GB3-BK


Crucial CT064M7SSD2

All of them are fine. Get a Samsung 840 Pro. Its the most reliable and stable SSD in my opinion...

As I say, none of those are listed at TigerDirect.ca.

But, I'll look up the Samsung. Thanks.

No problem. You can use this benchmark tool to help if you want a profesional opinion.

I'm just going to go with that one, looks good.'

Where can I find a similar compatibility page for the RAM? I need 32G on the P8Z77.

There is an "official" downloadable memory support list, BUT in general most common RAM will be compatible as long as its DDR3 1.5volts or under.

However its usually safer to just pick of that list. Not that I ever do...

Compatibility depends simply on the SATA port connectivity. If a board has SATA III, it'd compatible with SATA III SSDs .... if a board had SATA II ports, it's compatible with SATA II SSD's

As I say, none of those are listed at TigerDirect.ca.

Can't imagine why anyone would look to a retailer to provide search engine based compatibility info ..... Use a search engine to search on a MoBo model and ya still get 100s of hits on other models. The purpose is to sell you something, not necessarily the thing you want.

Might as well just ask this then, should the Corsair Vengeance line be fine?

shokan :

Jip, perfectly fine, just don't get the ones with the high profile fins, they provide no use and can get in the way of an aftermarket cooler...

This one ok? I need 32G total, as I say.

Why do you want 32GB? For most usage its totally pointless. 8GB is enough for gaming and 16GB is more than enough for MOST applications except for some serious VMware work.

Very, very huge polygon scenes with detailed textures in Maya.

There is a good option, a little bit more expensive but a little faster too. Guess it depends on the budget...

shokan · Jun 20, 2013

Novuake :

Yep, that would be. Thanks for Your help. I should be good to go.

shokan :

Once again, no problem.
