[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Hey guys, [/font]

A couple of questions

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]1) Can I purchase the intel SSD online? I see [/font][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Corsair product on flipkart, but did not see the intel SSD on that site, is there some where else I can pick this up at the correct price. (I am looking at an online purchase as live quite far away from town and cannot spend a whole day to pickup a SSD.[/font]

[font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"]2) Apart from these 2 brands are there any other good SSDS available online? what would you recommend?[/font]

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]2) Does the drive come with all cables (SATA cables) etc ..necessary to mount it on to my Rig?[/font][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] [/font]

1) Check eBay ( http://www.ebay.in/sch/i.html?_nkw=intel+ssd&_sacat=See-All-Categories )

2) Kingston is one more. Do you prefer performance or reliability? If you're open to purchasing from abroad, Crucial M4 or Samsung 830.

3) SATA cables, yes. 2.5" to 3.5" mounting adapters, some retail kits come with those. The Intel retail kits do AFAIK.

520 is a good buy. The best option among Sandforce drives. However only time will tell if they have totally fixed any sandforce bugs.

If absolute reliability is what you're looking for, the M4 will be a better choice
