SSD for Visual studio : Intel X25-m G2 or OCZ Vertex
- by meska
hi,
looking for laptop upgrade, and thinking about SSD drive.
Laptop would be Dell Studio XPS with T9400 as i can get one for a very good price. So i was thinking about replacing the built in 500 GB hdd with some kind of SDD
Currently two choices:
OCZ Vertex Series 60 GB vs. Intel X25-M G2 MLC 80 GB
Price is almost the same. From anandtech Intel performs badly in sequential write, but scores very high numbers in random write and random read (good for visual studio?) and i get more space.
What do you think? OCZ Vertex or Intel X25-M G2 ? Purely from Visual Studio 2008 and upcoming 2010 perspective?
