Default Best solid state drive?

Hi all

As per the title really. Looking to replace the 4 old HD's i have for 1 good SSD (around 128-250gb) for windows and my games and a small bog standard HD for the missus and all her bits and bobs. I have heard the OCZ ssd's are to be avoided until something with their sandforce drivers are sorted out? I have also read that most people reccommend the crucial m4 ssd's but don't really know what's best

Any advice would be appreciated!!! Oh and if anyone has a gtx 570 or above for cheap let me know as i want to replace my gtx460

the samsungs are quietly getting some good press, think the screwed sandforce controllers have now been sorted and replaced on the newer drives, 120gb will cost around Ł80, 250gb around Ł130 or you could try the seagate momentus, some people like em some don't

Purchased a crucial m4ssd 128gb and a 1tb WD caviar black to go with it.


The difference in speed and quality is immense
