I am currently looking at installing the 120 GB variant of the Samsung 840 EVO TLC.
This size was chosen so that the Original OS could be installed, with plenty of room for overhead and some other applications. The current HDD will remain.The model was chosen based on the ratings on Newegg and the price. My budget was $100 dollars, and this one seems to blow away competitors of similar size and pricing.
Are there any recommendations on what size and model of SSD to buy to get the most bang for your buck?
Has anyone installed this Hard drive in their X51?
Are there any known common issues with installing an SSD in an X51?
This would be in exclusion to being limited by SATA 2 hardware in the motherboard.
I have read daxmagex's guide to installing SSD's into X51's
Thank you for your time.
Cheers,
Carson
