Wich SSD to choose intel or Corsair?

[doggen]

Ok...so first i know i'm here at Corsair and probably all of you are biased on Corsair, but could you get me some pointers on why i should choose Corsair over intel? (reviews test, speccs and all your thoughts are welcome.)

 

Pricewise here in Sweden they are on pair with eachother so price wouldnt be an issue (if your not comparing money/GB then Intel would win.)

 

The 2 SSD im looking at are:

 

Intel® X18-M SSD 80GB 1,8" (or the x25)

vs.

Corsair SSD Extreme X64 2,5" 64GB

 

Thanx

Wel doggen I would say go for the corsair ones.

I was in the same boat as you for the last few days,read up a lot of reviews and figured that RL performace wise Corsair P256 is awesome.

I wud say that go for the P256.

It's value for money and real life apps wise you wont see much of a difference between the smaller intel drives.

Also intel drives are toooooo expensive and you can say 80GB will be enuf but it won't be (:

Check out the other SSD forums and support as that will be very important. I like this place here, responses are super fast.

cheers

some sites that enabled my decision.

Also remember more expensive always doesnt equate to better product :)
