Hello,
Just trying to figure this out for a new build that my son (17) and I are building for his gaming and school work (word, power point, excel). We are looking at Intel’s ssd's 120GB to load OS (Windows 7 64 bit and office). We are looking at the 520 series Cherryville ($139.99 Free SH), but looking at some reviews it uses the SF 2281 controller that has an encryption error for AES 256 but not on the AES 128, also was a BSOD issue but fixed with firmware.. Is this going to be a big issue for us or should I look at spending a little more and look at the older 320 series ($199.99 K5)? Or suggestions. Have been researching this and am little confused.
I5-25500k, ASUS P8Z68-V/GEN3 ATX (not purchased yet), WD1002FAEX 1TB, CM Silent Pro Gold Series RS800 PSU, SLI Geforce GTX 560 (Fermi) (have 1), Corsair Veng. 8GB, HAF X case.
