Well, you won't be sorry for buying that. Mine works great :)

Not quite:
I've never had an Intel SSD, but the 240GB 530 looks very good:

In any case, good luck with the new SSD! Regards, Joe

i counted Lee also in, for his "slightly better benchmarks
Thanks, nobus, for taking the time to reopen the question and reassign points — much appreciated! And thanks again to Dan for being such a gentleman about it. Regards, Joe
Thanks nobus.
I knew you were asking specifically about Intel SSD's but I didnt ahve very good results with their early models and and didnt like the price. I was very fond of the Crucial M4's but now that model has been discontinued I may evaluate a 530.
