Hi,
I'm running Windows 7 Pro for my Media Center.

I'm looking to upgrade the OS drive from a 1TB WD Black to a solid state drive.

I'm looking at the Samsung 840 Evo (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...) and the Crucial M550 (http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/ssd/ct256m550ssd1).

Any recommendations on either side? Reliability is important. I'm assuming any SSD will create less heat and noise than a mechanical.

If you recommend another model, any particular reason as to why? I want to stay around the $150 mark.
