The missus' PC is a core 2 system 4gb of ram and I was thinking of sticking an SSD in it ready for Windows 10. Now do I just grab a basic SSD for her or do I take the one from my PC and grab myself one of these: http://www.kingston.com/us/hyperx/ssd#shpm2280p2 Is the speed really that much higher to justify spending an extra £130? Just to be clear this will end up in the PC in my sig not the core 2!
Why not get this one:- http://www.cclonline.com/product/96...-SSDNow-V300-240GB-Solid-State-Drive/HDD1694/ £59.98 delivered. Scored 82% in a recent Custom PC labs test. I have 2 of them in my PC and they make Windows zip along.
As an owner of the Predator, it is a very nice ssd. But, unless you have some use cases where the higher speed would actually matter at all I would suggest to either save your money and buy a more standard model, or buy a much larger capacity standard model for around the same price.
That's the question! Do I buy her an SSD or get myself the predator and give her my hand me down? If I just buy her an SSD then the one in your link looks great. I'm tempted by the 1400MB read and 1000MB write speeds for me.
