| Bottom line | So far, the Crucial m4 offers the best value among SSDs. Though it's not the fastest, it's by far the most affordable among its peers. | The Samsung 840 series is an excellent entry-level solid-state drive for budget and general users, but not really a good buy for advanced or professional users. | The Samsung 840 Pro lives up to its name: it's a top-notch solid-state drive for professionals with a price to match. | If priced a little lower, the Intel 520 Series SSD would be an ideal investment for those who want to greatly improve their computer's overall performance. For now, it's still an excellent drive. | The OCZ Vector Series SSD would make a great investment for those moving on from using a hard drive as the main drive of their system. |
