Intel 520 Series 180GB 2.5IN SSD MLC 25nm SATA3 Solid State Disk Drive Retail W/ Mounting Bracket
Cons: Would have liked a bigger one Price

Pros: very quick , uses little power, fast boot up of OS and programs. Comes with adapter for 3.5 inch PC bay.
Comment:
I just bought this here, a week ago and really like it. It is running my os and some programs/games . Everything starts faster, (using intel 6Gb/s . HD tune showed an average of 350+ MB/S . Other parts are asus p8p67 vanilla board and 2500K cpu with 8 Gigs ripjaws 1600mhz memory, and two WD hard drives. Windows gives the drive 7.9 if that means anything. All in all, I am happy and would /will recommend it. Next time I will get a larger one .

Got this since need my old 320 SSD RMA, for $1/GB the price.Intel's 5 Year warranty is what you can fully trust, if you want something reliable I still recommend Intel.

I have gotten really good speeds with this HD. It allows me to shut off my pc between class's instead of leaving it in sleep. b/c it only takes 15 seconds to fully boot up now.

Intel 520 Series 180GB 2.5IN SSD MLC 25nm SATA3 Solid State Disk Drive Retail W/ Mounting Bracket
Cons:-Expensive

Pros:-Mounting bracket makes for easy installation-Fast
Comment:
The drive was easy to install, the mounting bracket does not look like much, but is actually quite versatile. The Drive itself is quite fast, but from what I gather not the fastest on the market, it's still a huge difference to a regular HDD and provides a noticable decrease in load times for Shogun Total War and SWTOR.
