I have Both still unopened and can't decide which one to use... Considering I paid the same price for both of them, which one would you guys recommend?

Samsung 830 is better in almost every way, especially in stability considering OCZ. Return the other one if you're not going to use it.

Should not have bought the OCZ if that were the case. Was reading a recommendation somewhere and they said OCZ was the fastest or something...

Any reviews that you could recommend I read?

The Vertex 4 has indeed been found to be faster than many of the other top SSD performers in some of the tests, but the fail rate and hassle has been extremely evident in OCZ's less-than-stellar SSD history.

Leave the gun, take the cannoli, err...I mean, keep the Samsung, return the OCZ. It's not even a close decision.

:colbert: You don't need to read any more reviews. Between the OCZ and Samsung...
Keep and use the Samsung, send back or sell the OCZ.
