[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1382773, member: 24098"] Having done extensive research on the matter, I opted for the Crucial M4. My M4 has been flawless to-date, and they are priced very competitively. It's not the fastest 6Gb/s drive on the market, but it's still near the top and the firmware is very mature (be sure to research firmware stability - this is a big deficiency for some manufacturers like OCZ). The 256GB will run you about $315, which is way down from the $379 I paid in December 2011. With that said, the OWC drives seem to be well-liked by this community and the professional reviews I've read. And you can't beat their Mac-specific support and customer service (although Crucial has a solid reputation for this as well). [/QUOTE]
