    I have a Corsair Force which is near identical and I think it is a great drive. The Sandforce 1200 controller based drives are by far the best consumer all rounder SSDs at the moment IMO. Some drives such as the Crucial SSD in the above link do certain things better (absoutely blistering read speeds in the case of the Crucial), but few in that category offer both good read and write performance. If all you need is pure fast boot OS drive with very little writes then it probably doesn't really matter too much if you opt for the Intel or OCZ, but if good read/write performance balance
    matters then it must be the vertex 2 all the way.

    If your motherboard has SATA 6 Gb/s I'd go with a crucial ssd if not a vertex 2.
