I can get the Intel drive for ~$300 off the normal price, while the OCZ would be full price.
Looking at reviews like anandtech's it seems like the OCZ thrashes the intel drive in the more arbitrary raw read\write speeds, but intel's drive seems pretty close behind in any kind of test which attempts to simulate "real world" performance.
I wish I could see a benchmark of something like video game level load-times or windows boot time. Those are the benchmarks I would care about.
So, would I regret getting the slower intel drive considering the larger size, discount price, and reliability?
