Storage Solutions WTB:Cheap SSD. Need advice

[sunny27]

I plan on getting this [font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]SanDisk G3 60 GB Solid State Drive SDS7CB-060G-G25[/font]

I am getting it for Rs.4500 locally from my dealer with warranty. Is it a good buy? This would be my first ssd and i plan on using it as the os drive.

Go for at least OCZ Agility 3. If possible get m4, but I doubt it will get warranty in India. A review worth reading for you- http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-60gb-benchmark-review,3137.html

Does it retail for the same price as the sandisk? my budget is sub-5k.

 

[JuGGa]

No, it will cross your budget by a good margin. Agility 3 @ flipkart is 7.2k.

The drives I mentioned are 2X (or even more) faster than Sandisk G3.

buy this, its a GREAT drive and will serve ur purpose, also in your budget.
