I love Intel for their solid performance and excellent warranty but you'll pay a bit more per GB than other brands. The M4 is a pretty good drive though.

The Intel is certainly that.

Also, my SSD is 120GB and that is plenty if you have another drive where most stuff can be stored. I use Steam mover (works for everything, not just Steam) to move the games I'm currently playing onto the SSD and then move them back when I change to a new game.

Merged your threads. 🙂

I have an Intel drive in one of my machines if that helps. As I said, either would be a good choice so it's basically a trade off between a longer warranty or more space.

Go with the first one. I have the 240g and love it!
