Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 Sandforce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive
Cons:want bigger one
Pros:Budget pricing less than a dollar per Gig!!! good performance, easy install. Comment:
Great little ssd, at a great price(less than 1$ per GB cant go wrong). Was easy to install just mounted on the bracket for my case and slides in and out, very nice. I think it takes longer for my computer to power on than it does for windows to load. Programs I have installed on this ssd run very fast as well, SSD is a must have. The only draw back is its just 120 gb, if you got the cash get the biggest 1 you can well worth it. Im running my 1tb western digital for extra space right now. |

Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 Sandforce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive
Cons:None.
Pros:Fast - stable - Mushkin support. Comment:
These are awesome SSDs, and have been selling lately at real cheap prices. I bought two of them when they first came out, and another one just the other week for a friend. Have to say that Mushkin is my favorite SSD brand. Would definitely buy these for a decent computer build, or the Chronos Deluxe ones for a high end build. Highly recommended. |

Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 Sandforce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive
Cons:bought 2 and raid0'ed them, benckmarks fast, but in reality a single drive loads windows just as fast sadly, that being said, SATA3 rocks!!!! should have bought a single 240GB SSD!
Pros:fast, silent and reasonably priced... :) Comment:
SSDs are amazing, this is no exception. benchmarks really fast in RAID0, but in reality i can't tell the difference... going from SATA2 to SATA3 is truly amazing! intel ich10r to intel C600 is the main difference though. i wish i knew what i know now when i purchased 2 of these things. per GB its a great price, but just would have been happier with a single 240GB drive i feel... live and learn.... :) |

Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 Sandforce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive
Cons:Reliability issues
Pros:FastCheapWorks well for first SSD purchase Comment:
I had to RMA 2 of these back to NCIX. Hopefully third time is a charm. Both drives stopped detecting in BIOS even in AHCI, IDE and RAID mode. Did not appear in device manager. Tried to clear CMOS by removing the battery and pulling PSU with no luck. My best guess is a faulty firmware or driver issues. Both drives worked well for 1-2 weeks. Next buy I would stick to something with reliability like Intel or Crucial.This is all on an ASUS Z68 mobo. |

Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 Sandforce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive
Cons:-none comes to mind
Pros:-fast-cheap : nearly $1 / 1GB-pretty reliable Comment:
One of the best value SSDs out there. Works as advertised.Another little thing, just about NCIX service itself. The packaging this SSD comes in is actually slightly bulkier than usual and has some parts that may seem "damaged" as it comes with a 3.5" adapter. I wasn't well aware and had thought my SSD was open box / damaged; the employee promptly agreed to swap it with another one that they had in stock which looked the exact same as the first one. Regardless, touched by the fact that they agreed to my demands, excellent service. |

Cons:none
Pros:Fastsimplelooks nice in the boxprice Comment:
this is my first SSD and i must say, its the best thing iv gotten for faster windows operation. I managed to clean install windows 7 in a matter of minuets this this and reinstalling every things from scratch couldnt have been any faster! Its a must buy if your looking for price to performance and at around $0.97/GB (as of may 2nd 2012)its a steal. |

Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 Sandforce SF-2281 SSD Solid State Disk Flash Drive
Cons:None yet.. hope it stays that way ;)
Pros:Cheap for 120gb SSD, Good warranty, Working great out of the box, FAST Comment:
I was looking to swap out a Vertex 2 80gb that I was using for my system drive and needed more space for games.. figured that with this beauty I could get more space and effectly come close to double my read/write speed. Imaged my system to this ssd and the performance has been terrific as expected. After some tinkering managed to get around 400mb write and over 500mb read (peaks) using ATTO, so definitely this guy flies no question. Came with the most up to date firmware out of the box. Now I'm able to install many more games and still have space left over. Fortunately I got this drive in time as my vertex (which I put in my work laptop) died yesterday and is going for RMA! Lucky!This is the first mushkin product I have owned actually, but from what I've read online and other people's experiences these ssds appear to be really good for many people which is nice to see.. better than OCZ thats for sure. For the price, the speed and capacity is one of the best bangs for the buck you can get in an ssd right now.. easy choice really. |

Cons:None
Pros:Price, Speed, Bracket Included. Comment:
Another perfect build and this SSD (as most all SSD's) improved the overall PC 100fold. Unlike other SSD's I've built with this one didn't need to be flashed for fixes beforehand although I'm heading to Mushkin's site for the latest files just for kicks. |

Cons:Small storage capacity
Pros:Quick data access, easy to fit into any case. Comment:
Definitely a great buy. I hummed and haaa'd about this for a while, but upon installation and usage, this little guy does the trick for an OS drive. I highly recommend this unit to anyone who wants their OS to load speedily and not have to wait for your main programs to load. |

Pros:SSD are faster than conventional hdd by most mean3.5 adapter includedQuiet and less heat Comment:
Install Windows 7 seem very fast, from an usb drive. May not be the fastest ssd but faster than the 7200RPM hdd. |
Just got it yesterday from the prize draw(The NCIX 16th ......)It has a good performance(it takes 40s(or less) to enter to the windows) which is so fast!!!!!(I used my WD black before) It is quite quiet(no noise).This is the first time I use SSD... Once you used it, you would love it(the speed)
