    true, intel second generation 34nm SSD is much more reliable.

    320 had a bug but it's been fixed. Intel SSD are head and shoulders above the rest in terms of reliability. For example Newegg's reviews of Intel are much more positive than any other SSD brand.

    Another brand that might be as good as intel is crucial since both use the same fabs. I also recommend Samsung since they are used by Apple and have a good track record as well.

    How do you know if your PC supports the SSDs that are now SATA III?

  7. Check the mobo specs to see if it supports SATA III. (T3500 does not. However, you can get a PCIEx1 or x4 add-on card to pick up that function if desired.)
