I've had trouble like yours with 60GB SSDs in RAID. A real PITA

Should probably sell the RAID card

Was trying to determine just how long would one last... would hate to invest $500 in a drive that was toast after 12 months.

Interesting read... http://phys.org/news/2012-12-taiwan-...emory.html#jCp

I don't use my Raid card anymore. The intel Raid is better. Especially now that it has 6gb speeds. Only reason i bought a RAID card was for pc05 benching. I never used it for d my daily. One reason was the extremly slow load time.

@Rick...I am sure it would last alot longer than 12 months. How long will it last? I have really never looked into it. But this one has a 5 year warranty. I'll probably want something else by then. lol

Any downside to one of these? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820147190

I see the 3 year warranty on the Samsung, but having difficulty finding the specifics of the 5 year OCZ.

I would have to think the 840 would be better than the 830, but I do not know that. I do know if you can find an 830 are freaking rockets as I have two of them

Sammies are all I use these days, never even had so much as a hicup with them

I put one in the cart...still thinking on it. Can get an extended warranty of one to two years beyond the manufacturer's for $35 or $60.
