Upgrading the SSD. Need expert's advice (You!)


hey guys,

purchased macbook pro (early 2011, hr anti 15") , in market purchase ssd work bit faster have -- intel g2 "postville" 160gb

after rigorous researching, have filtered choices down these 3 drives:

1. mushkin chronos deluxe 240gb ($278) - toggle flash, best bang buck uses sandforce controller sf-2281. however, reviews show it's drive without hiccups?

2. crucial m4 256gb ($320) - dont know if need more. it's known reliable drive among mac users. :p

3. samsung 830 256gb ($335) - drive new it's proven reliable.

main questions are:

1. notice improvement in speed old intel ssd of these 3 drives?
2. ssd choose , why? (knowing mushkin offers best price kind of makes me hesitate.)

thank you!
