I know Jcole is a big advocate for SSD's and I almost didn't include one in my build for budget reasons. I couldn't justify 100-150 bucks for 120gigs. Well today I got a newegg email with a promo code of 72SALE9 which will discount an already discounted 250gb drive from $189.99 to $149.99.

From all of my reading, Samsung has been the consensus top brand. Just wanted to let everyone know and also get opinions on the drive itself.

I have purchased a Samsung for my home PC. I also have purchased an OCZ for my work computer. Outside of the video cards, both pc's are exactly the same. I find that the Samsung is faster. Take that for what it's worth.
