Buying new 240/256GB SSD

[Seromontis]

Hey guys, I'm buying a new 240/256GB SSD to replace my 2-yr old 120GB OCZ Vertex 2. I'm doing this mostly for the storage factor and partly for a performance increase. I trust OCZ as my Vertex 2 has been working perfectly for 2 years now. Going through a search for SATA 3 SSDs on newegg I found 2 of the "best performing" SSDs. Unfortunately I have not found any benchmarks that compare the two. I'm not sure if there are better ones out there, when focusing on 4k IOPS speeds, so I have come to the conclusion that the Mushkin Enhanced Chronos Deluxe is the best Sandforce controller SSD and I believe the OCZ Vertex 4 is the best 240/256GB SSD. I'm not sure if any of you guys have found an article that compared the two, or says what I said was wrong, but if you guys could help me out in purchasing my new SSD that would help a lot.

I'm not going to be very much help with which drive to recommend, being that I stick with Samsung and Plextor, but you can save $20 on the Vertex 4 using promo code HARDOCPX919A 🙂

Edit: It expires tonight

Where did you get that discount code from? If I can save that $20 today I'll definitely buy it over the Mushkin.
