I have the choice to config a new laptop with either a single 160gb Intel 320 SSD (advertised read/write: 270/165mb/s) or an 80gb msata Intel 310 (advertised read/write: 200/70mb/s) + 320GB 5400 RPM Mech HDD.
The 160GB will be enough space for the next while anyway. I can currently fit Windows 7 install (~25 GB) + programs (20-30GB) comfortably on an 80 GB SSD.
Obviously the extra storage space of the mSATA + HDD config is appealing, but so is the somewhat faster performance of the Intel 320 SSD.
Any price differences aside, what would you choose?
Thanks in advance for any opinions. I've been wasting a few hours so far, unable to decide.
Edit: Poll Anyone?
