I'm considering buying my first SSD via Woot, can't beat the deal
http://tech.woot.com/offers/corsair-force-60gb-ssd-5
Anywho, I've heard a lot of caution when it comes to buying SSD's and wanted to know if this drive is a mistake. I read it's got the Sandforce controller (v 1200..?) and want to know if this drive has issues with garbage collection, if it has TRIM support, and if there's anything else I should know or be aware of when buying this. I trust Corsair as a brand, and have heard good things about Sandforce, but don't want to buy a horribly out of date drive that is going to perform poorly in a week's worth of use. TIA for any help.
