Corsair Force Series 3

I am thinking about finally purchasing a SSD for a system drive. I don't want to go big (256GB) yet until I have some experience with SSDs. Right now it is hard to research SSDs because half the people that buy them and write reviews have no idea how to set them up correctly. So now I am turning to you guys! I have had a lot of good experiences with Corsair in the past, mainly with their memory.

I will be following the procedures to install the SSD, so having problems with making it work right should be little to none. What I want to know is the problems that this SSD has that does not come from mis-use or installing it the wrong way. Thanks!!

Ideally, you get the SSD, install it, install Windows 7 using the default driver with the MOBO set to AHCI mode, and then load the most recent Intel RST driver once you are in Windows. If you have issues, post here or in the Corsair forum and we'll assist you.
