1. Would a SSD be a good upgrade for me? I don't plan to upgrade my CPU until next year and thought the SSD upgrade would be nice until then.
2. Which one should I get? I plan to spend $130 at the most, but preferably closer to $100. According to my research I should be able to get a decent 60 GB drive for this amount.
Since I know very little about SSD specs, I searched newegg for popular items with lots of reviews, I came up with these two:
Voted "Best of the Best" by Maximum PC magazine
Highest Score for a SSD ever tested-ThinkComputers
Both are OCZ, 60GB and cost the same. One is Vertex 2, the other Agility 2. Are these good drives? Which one is better? Is there a cheaper model that will get me good performance?
3. What sort of durability can I expect from a drive like this? it is intended for home use only.
Thanks.
