| Details: | Corsair Performance 128GB Solid State Drive for $280 (expired) (repost) For today only, Corsair (CMFSSD-128GBG2D P128) 128GB Performance Solid State Drive for $280 ($2.19/GB) with free shipping. Most stores sell it for around $320. It does not include a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter for mounting inside a desktop/tower computer. If 80GB is enough for your operating system, apps, and a couple games, look at a Intel X25-M 80GB SSD for $200. It's rated slightly higher than the Corsair, the OCZs, and the Crucials despite slower sequential read/writes. The X25-M might be a better operating system drive because its performance reportedly does not degrade over time like most other SSDs. Note that SSD drives should not be defragmented in the operating system. Instead, you should run an SSD with a TRIM compatible operating system. SSDs work differently that hard drives, and for further detail of SSD degradation and how TRIM can help, see this Anandtech article. |
