Hi,
I'm finally buying an SSD. I was considering Samsung 830 Series 64gb or Crucial M4 64gb. After reading a lot of reviews I decided to go for the M4.
But now I have a great offer for a brand new Kingston V+200 SVP200S3 120Gb (http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1874/1/) in almost the same price as for the M4.
I'm a little bit worried about the Sandforce controller, but it's bad reputation is caused by OCZ which couldn't handle it very well at the beginning. Now I hear that Sandforce SF-2281 is actually pretty good.
I'm wondering if I'm going to feel the difference in random 4k read/write speeds. Kingston has 20,000/44,000 IOPS and Crucial has the opposite 40,000/20,000 IOPS.
Having in mind that I still have Sata 2 will it make a big difference?
The SSD will be for OS and some programs only.
