Bought Corsair 90GB Force 3 now what do to with Intel SSD

**nekrosoft13** · 10-14-11, 11:39 PM

I got a brand new Corsair 90GB Force 3 SATAIII SSD for $100 to replace my Intel 80GB second generation SSD.

anyway, was wondering would it be better to sell the intel SSD and later buy OCZ or Corsair SATAIII drive for one of my other PCs or put the Intel SSD in other PCs.

SATAIII drive would be faster, just looking for opinions.

When I got my vertex 3, I made my 2nd gen 80GB intel into my drive for apps.

vertex 3 120gb = games/OS
intel 80gb = apps
wd caviar black 2tb = everything else

I effectively have 200gb of SSD space for all programs, with the apps having slightly slower load times.

Hmm, reason why I was considering selling it, it is older drive, not sure if I should keep older drive or sell it while its still worth something and get a better new one.
