Boom.

Boom what?

It says a slow throughput and notes the poor value for money.

... and that they're the fastest drive you can use when loading data on your PC.  Whilst I grant you the MB/£ is awful, if you have £60 spare then there's nothing better you can buy for popping Windows and a few games on.  Instead of looking as an SSD as poor value for money, it's better to see them as great value for money upgrades to speed up computer performance.

And that's all I would ever use one for, an data hungry application or game. Most other things including windows don't really benefit from it so much, sure they'll load quicker, but once loaded its not doing much else.

My budget is being blown out the water too. My build is costing upwards of £1,500 now.
