Thread: Which is the cheapest SSD

Instead of buying a HDD, I thought I may get an SSD, even though I don’t know which one to buy, one that’s around 100-200$ as well as has a good reading rate, Or two SSD's that are like 100$ each as well as put them in RAID 0 or such

One of the most excellent you can get is the latest X25-M G2 from Intel, 230$ for 80GB, but presently out of stock all over because of firmware bug, but a patch was released at present so they should be obtainable soon. If you actually want to go for the lower priced ones, the Kingston SSDNow V series is also cheap one and is available in 64GB. If you are grave in wanting a SSD. According to me I would have buyed Intel. Look at the reviews on techfuels.com they are most likely the major results for an OS/Application drive.

Attaching a SSD is just like linking a normal HDD. The only distinction you might find is that SSD have the 2.5 inches structure part generally used in laptops so if you wish to hook them in normal 3.5" HDD bays, you will require a few metal brackets to occupy the gap.
