Mushkin Chronosmx 2,5" Ssd 120 Gb (sata 600, Mknssdcr120gb-mx, Schwarz

Cheap-ish ($99 for 120GB isn't too shabby) ; Came with a mounting bracket I didn't need ; Much faster than a HDD by far, speed increased 5x, boot times decreased by 5x ; Very realible, never had any BSOD, random shutdowns, no errors whatso ever, which...

Boot times seems to slightly increase by a few milliseconds with every boot it seems, boot times have increased by ~4 seconds since first usage one month ago, although, as more data is put on the SSD, you will notice a slight performance decrease, was...

Fast, silent, fast, small, fast, cool

SSDs in general are still on the pricier side

Faster than others of this size and at a better price

None

Extremely fast synchronous SSD. Benchmarks are satisfying

Regret not purchasing a bigger size ; My benchmarks haven't been able to meet the advertised performance results

I came from an OCZ Vertex2 60GB which was no slouch, but there were times where you could tell that it couldn't handle certain I/O loads as well

It only rated as 7.2 on my WEI, but I'm not taking that too hard

Cheap ; Speeds quite impressive out of the box ; Mounting bracket included plays nice with hot-swap bays (at least it did for me)

1 out of 4 defective within the first 2 months ; With Sandforce controllers and asynchronous chips this SSD's speed will drop over time ; Does not have Synchronous NAND like the 240gb (and higher) deluxe

I got two. One for desktop and one laptop. They are quite fast. Get close to advertised specs. Windows runs very snappy. With that see cons for frustration venting

One drive in the desktop failed out of nowhere 40 days or so after install. It was running when I went to sleep, and in the morning nothing. Not recognized at post. I switched it to other sata ports tried using it as hotswap esata, nothing. Its just...

I used ATTO and CrystalDiskMark to benchmark this disk's speeds using sequential and random read/writes in steps of 0.5kb through 8 mb for a chunk of 256 and 512 mb of data. I am running this SSD on ASRock 890FX Deluxe5 motherboard on its AMD Sata 3...

Except the random read/write speed tests, I don't find a CON. I hope the drive lasts for a good time

Worked well when not crashing or dead

Over the course of a month had 4 blue screen crashes ; Completely dead after the 4th

Read and write on par with advertized speed, boot up win 7 in 15 sec, almost instant load up on all my programs, made in USA, I recommend Muskin for ssd and memory. Just blowin' away by the quality and dependability of their products
