Great drive, have a ton of them at work.

Mushkin has been, by far, the most reliable SSD brand for me.

Excellent deal. Thinking of getting one for myself but the only place I would have to put it would be my laptop and I don't feel like replacing or backing up my super slow 5400 rpm HDD... Yes, I'm that lazy.

clone it with free software like clonezilla or buy ghost 14 for cheap (I use it at work and 14 is better than 15 and cheaper too)

Excellent price and very tempting but the reviews spook me just a bit. It has three times the percentage of one star reviews vs. the ADATA SX900 that I have (23% vs. 7%). I know Newegg reviews are far from foolproof, but with hundreds for each it should be a somewhat reliable sample.

Thanks for the advice. I just might have to pick one up because my laptop's performance is getting unbearable..... It takes me about 5 minutes just to resume from standby.


Now the debate is whether to go with 128GB or 256GB.... Leaning towards this Mushkin 240GB drive though.

clonezilla will do this job just fine. no need to go buy anything when clonezilla works perfectly

Funny, my 240GB Chronos Deluxe went Tango Uniform on me in under a month. The only SSD I've had die on me (and I own plenty of OCZ models).
