I am in the process of changing my Storage Set Up inside my computer.

I had:

  • 1 * OCZ Agility 2 60GB (OS and some programs)
  • 1 * WD VelociraptorX 150GB (Programs and some storage).

For the rest I use a firewired External. Since I need some files on the go, whether working on my pc or on my mobile workstation.

Today I have upgraded my WD VelociraptorX to 2* 160GB WD Velociraptor (2nd series) in RAID 0.

 

Anytime soon, I want to upgrade my SSD and have fresh format, to those that think that I am wasting money, it is not the case, since the old parts will go towards my server. nuff said.

 

What suggestions would you make for SSDs.

I am currently looking at 2 * OCZ Vertex 4 64GB at RAID 0 which will set me back at 177eu from OC uk.

 

Speed is something that I want since the work that I has and the ambient that I am used to is composed of fast devices. So If I have to spend money, I may as well spend some more and get more of it. I do not want to spend that much though.. since in 2 years time Even less I will surely upgrade..

 

 

cheers

if i where you, get a later generation 120gb drive instead. MUCH faster and no risk of raid.

Later Generation?

Vertex 4 is one of the latest /xD

 

And I am sure that 2 * 64GB will supass 1 * 120gb in speed.

 

Give me the link for your so-called-latest-gen SSD

i did now lol. didn't find the write speeds though.

Ususally 120+ will have better write speeds than 64.

 

I just want to suggest not to use RAID0 and risk data. If that is not a poblem, then go ahead

That is based on the initial release.. there have been many firmware updates, which place the Vertex 4 at the top
