Which SATA for SSD?

[ingeborgdot]

I am getting ready to install my ssd on my new build. I will need to install it in the sata 6Gb/s but am wondering which ones people usually use. Do you use the on controlled by the Z68 or the Marvell chip? What is preferred? Thanks.

Surf the internet.

Very nice build, really like your choice of components.

That is a joke about surfing the internet. I do a lot of video work and I needed something with some more pop. Thanks.
I have spent a long time looking for good deals on good products. I saved almost 1 grand on these components compared to what I would have paid without sales or rebates. There may be better components out there but not for the price I ended up paying that's for sure.

The Intel chipset ports perform far better than Marvell and JMicron controlled ports.

That is a joke about surfing the internet ...

But it does that too, figured you were kidding
