Hey guys, anyone got any info on this SSD? Force GT Series CSSD-F240GBGT-BK I was thinking about getting this as I always seem to have more than 128GB on my OS Drive. I heard good things about it, but I wanted to check with you all, especially for the price difference.The crucial RealSSD C300 is my back up plan.

That has the same controller as the vertex 3 and for me it has to prove itself, and it has not been out long enough to do that yet.

I don't recommend them because of the history of the controller but DS seems to like them.

I would rather go with the reliable 320 or the c300/m4, once the force gt has been out long enough and has proven itself trustworthy then I would use/recommend that also.

Thanks for the help, very insightful. one last thing, does the capacity matter on those 320s in terms of performance and reliability? for example, does the 300 GB perform as well as the 120 GB?

In ssds the higher in size you go the faster they get, but around the 120 or 160GB on the 320 you are good to go. the speed gain is minimal from there.
