Not that it really means anything, but I had one of those fail on me a few weeks ago. Not bought from that seller though.

I got a 250GB in my main laptop and a 128GB in spare PC. No problems so far. The boot up time etc. is amazing.

Most SSDs have excellent performance. The telling feature will be reliability over the long term, which is impossible to tell. I noticed that eBuyer were selling those OCZ SSDs as well as a couple of cheap Sandisk models.
I am all SSD at work (desktop & lappy) and I may pick one up for home use.
George: if you run Windows 7, it's a piece of cake to create an image backup to a USB drive and then boot the DVD and restore the data to the new SSD.
Can you run through how that is achieved please Martin and what software is needed?

There is a good guide HERE on how to do a back up and restore in Windows 7.
I use Acronis myself but that's through habit more than anything else.

The SSD in this laptop is 120 Gb and cost me £380 the original 30Gb SSD as supplied by Dell on this laptop was a £900 option. £50 is nothing for 120Gb
SSD is the way forward and soon the next generation will be with us.
