So I've built a good pc but am frustrated that I can't make the most of it because of the hard drive bottle neck. so i am now looking at getting a SSD to solve this problem, only i need a relatively large capacity.
I tried raid 0 with two old samsung drives i had but no difference.
With just my OS and software I am at 100GB (alot of music production software). so i was thinking of buying this OCZ Agility 3 120GB only the capacity doesn't seem enough for me.
Or this 180GB vertex 2, only its half as slow as the other.
I think 160-180GB would be ideal but don't want to spend much more than i have to, and also i've heard terrible thing about the marvell chip on my board will this be an issue for me with SATA 3?
What should i do? will i miss the additional speed of the agility 3?
P.S my build
Antec 902
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R
OCZ Reaper 6GB 1600Mhz Ram
Intel i7 920 @ 3.2GHZ
Prolimatech megahalem heatsink
2 x Gigabyte GTX 560 TI OC
1 X Samsung F3 1TB
1 X WD caviar blue 2TB
2 X samsung 250gb in raid 0
