I am looking for a cheap mSATA SSD to use as a cache for my laptop. The two that I am looking at at the moment are both 32GB, and both cost about $35 on eBay. One is made by KingSpec, the other by Samsung. I can't seem to find many reviews or specs for either, so I'm asking you guys: Which is better?

Samsung Dell 32GB PCI E mSATA SSD Solid State Hard Drive MZMPA032HMCD | eBay

while kingspec seem to be a decent SSD manufacturer, i'd go with samsung, for the sole reason i haven't really heard or seen much feedback from kingspec products... also samsung seems more credible without the chinese scribbles on it, making kingspec look like a motherboard of a cheap chinese electronic toy from the 90's which only played tetris.
also, i do believe kingspec is china based, doubt they got good customer support if any. Haven't dealt with them yet, but wouldn't want to be the first.
Samsung or KingSpec mSATA cache?
