    Last week I was looking for an SSD (with no knowledge of SSD manufacturers) and after reading lots of very negative posts on OCZ, I decided to skip it alltogether.

    Now, Canada Computers (the best place for SSD pricing I've managed to find in Canada) is having a few sales and I'd like to know which I should aim for.

    1) Kingston 128GB @ 139$

    Corsair force3 is my choice out of these four, forget about KingstonV200which performs worse than V100 according to some users.
