Buy New SSD!!!

Try either of these:

Corsair Force 3 60GB SATA III @4.75k

OCZ Vertex Plus 60GB SATA II @4.95k

You can try Kingston SSDNow V100 64GB for ~4.2K

Kingston v100 is satall.
My system is x6, gigabyte 990xa-ud3

Will go for a satalll ssd

Then get the Corsair one I suggested.

But ppl are sayin something regarding sandforce controller creating bsod and other stuff.... Is that ok ?

Then Corsair Force 3

Sandforce driver version 1.3.3 (or something like that) fixed the BSOD issues. Google for more.

Almost all controllers have some sort BSOD problems during their lifetime. Ensure the firmware is latest. Go for Corsair Force 3.

K. I'll ask my vendor for it and c wot he says

What vendor? Get it from Flipkart. The link is there.

Flip kart doesn't have 60gv in stock..

My mistake. Get it here.

Just checked out the corsair site, isn't force gt better then force 3. And wots the price diff between the 2?

GT > Force 3.
As your max budget is 5K, you won't get 60GB GT within that.

@ the day walker - am sorry, but i would like to use this platform to post my doubt as well. might even help you too.

friends, i have got a corsair force 3 (120 gb) booked for 8k. i could even cancel it. what am not able to find anywhere is the GT version of it. could someone please post a link from where i could get it ? if not, then any idea on its price ? i definitely would not want to go beyond the 10k mark, in which case i would sit quiet with the standard force 3 itself

UPDATE : oh ! i found it at primeabgb itself
will post the price here tomorrow after calling them up (price is not mentioned on their website).

New Arrivals | GolchhaIT.com
check with them

thanks a lot rajesh ! repped

i have never ordered from golchha, but have read quite a lot about them. price is very good indeed.

i had called up primeabgb. they said corsair force GT isnt available yet, but they have ordered for the stock. price should be near-about 10,500/-.

so should i go ahead with golchha ?

Golcha prices are ex-VAT. Add 5% to it to know the exact cost.

Didn't find any difference in speed in photoshop compared to my other system with 2 HDD in raid 0 setup. Comparatively, the ssd system has a poor performance then my raid system..

Is SSD set as your scratch disk? BTW, I hope you have gone through this:-
