HD prices going up fast

<< < (8/13) > >>

BobA:
Looks like things are improving but the price chart shows that we are really being hosed by retailers.  Price increases are nowhere near what the resellers are charging.  :( :(

HD factories are comming back

Might be a nice time to consider a SSD.

SNAAKE:
duude!! SSDs are too pro. my computer is so fast now. all programs launch instantly and multitasking is a breeze. window7 boots in like 20 seconds.. :dizzy:

hypernova:
Forgot to look at the rest of the posts.  Someone already suggested the time to check SSDs.

However, I'm noticing there may be a slight issue with their longevity.  Also noticing brands that I'm not familiar with.  OCZ seems to be a major player in the market, yet never heard of them, while Intel has some products (don't recall them having any HDDs, at least not in retail).

Any experience on here with SSDs?  What brands have you heard good/bad about?

What size is recommended?  Enough for a OS and whatever large programs you frequently use?

SNAAKE:
60/64gb recommend for average users.

crucial M4s are very popular and got good reviews from every site and newegg too.
