Intel 710 Series ( Lyndonville) 100GB 2.5" SATA II eMLC Enterprise Solid State Disk SSDSA2BZ100G301
SSD faster than any spindle speed HD...
- Pros: Picked up one of these as a primary OS drive on Win7 64-bit. Granted, the amount of RAM in your setup matters, but this thing is blazing fast!!! It was odd after the OS install, not hearing the "clicks", as with conventional HDs...but that is a good thing. Boot time is fast, and application installs are nearly instantaneous!
- Cons: None so far, enable AHCI in bios prior to Win7 install, and Trim should take care of the rest.
- Other Thoughts: First use of SSD, and will never go back. Currently only using SSD on primary OS drive. Perhaps as this technology develops, it will be cheaper to go full SSD, even for storage!
I upgraded from a WD Raptor (10K spindle speed drive)...does not even come close to this drive!

OCZ IBIS 360GB 3.5" HSDL (High Speed Data Link) MLC Enterprise Solid State Disk OCZ3HSD1IBS1-360G
a waste of money
- Pros: when it worked it worked great, but not for long.
- Cons: to spend over 1k and have this die just a few months after installing it. now its just an expensive piece of trash.
I will never buy anything from OCZ again.
- Other Thoughts: Stay Away from OCZ products.

Intel 310 Series 80GB mSATA mSATA (mini PCIe form factor) MLC Enterprise Solid State Disk SSDMAEMC080G2C1
Update
- Pros: SSD responsiveness, reliable - no faults. Intel SSD toolbox lets you run trim as required. mSATA lets me utilize the otherwise unused connector on my laptop. Makes a fine boot drive and made my laptop much more responsive.
- Cons: TRIM didn't seem to work and the drive was slowing down even though I tried to clear out enough space (about 15GB of the 70ish available) for it to work with.
It's still not the fastest drive even when at top speed.
- Other Thoughts: After fiddling with it and getting repeated horrible performance verified with AS-SSD and hdtach, I did the unthinkable - I "defragged" the drive as a last ditch effort before I re-installed everything, and surprisingly it worked. Performance is now pretty consistent and comes close to matching the advertised numbers (200/70). The intel SSD toolbox reports no problems with the drive after a year and a half, including almost a year where this was my primary computer.

SAMSUNG MMCRE64G8MXP-0VB 1.8" 64GB SATA II NAND BASED Internal Enterprise Solid State Drive (SSD)
Perfect
- Pros: Cheap for the amount of storage
Faster than standard HDDs
Quiet (no sound)
Low heat - Cons: 1.8", not standard sata
Had to buy an adapter (was expected)
Because of it's size, mounting would be tricky
- Other Thoughts: I bought a 1.8" to 2.5" drive caddy on a certain auction website (can't be named here, ryhmes with "emay"), for this drive. It allows me to mount, and connect my drive to my pc, working flawlessly.
Runs great with a fresh copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
6.4 on Window's Experience Index

Intel 311 Series Larsen Creek 20GB mSATA SATA II SLC Enterprise Solid State Disk SSDMAESC020G201
Don't waste your time out of date
- Pros: Fits in an mSATA port and makes use of that.
- Cons: slc instead of mlc is a good story but just get a marvell controller and solve all the real problems.
- Other Thoughts: Crucial M4 looks good and has a long track record.

OCZ Z-Drive R2 P84 256GB PCI-E PCI-Express interface (x8) MLC Enterprise Solid State Disk OCZSSDPX-ZD2P84256G
Was good while it lasted
- Pros: Fast, very decent
- Cons: Too long, slowly began warping due to the length and every three-to-four days it crashes, bringing my computer down.
- Other Thoughts: Forgot to bring it back with me during winter break and will return it when I get back to campus. Will buy from OCZ again if the cards are shortened

SAMSUNG MMCRE64G8MXP-0VB 1.8" 64GB SATA II NAND BASED Internal Enterprise Solid State Drive (SSD)
solid performer
- Pros: Cheap, SSD speed, low heat signature, Perfect for OS. The small form factor allows it to be mounted in unusual locations. Using double sides tapes, two units can be easily mounted where a single unit should be. I primarily use it as a OS drive in a HTPC.
- Cons: None at this point.
- Other Thoughts: Cables and mounting locations must be checked before purchase.
