    What is the difference between these SSDs?

    Hey guys. I am adding another SSD to my new rig and already use a Corsair Force GT 128gb.

    I really would like to keep the theme of the SSDs corsair. With that being said, there seems to be 3 options now.

    Corsair Force GT 240gb = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...irtualParent=1
    Corsair Force Series GS 240gb = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...irtualParent=1
    Corsair Force Series 3 = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...irtualParent=1

    What is the difference between all of these?

    I've compared them here: = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...24%24%24%24%24

    And can't really find any major differences, but internally there has to be something different about them.

    Not really interested in spending 240 dollars on an SSD I can get for 160/ish.

    Any experts out there give me some advice?

    main reason that force 3 is cheaper is due to it being refurbished.
    i got a force 3 in my ux32vd and it works perfect. (no reason to not pick it unless you don't like refurbished)

    Refurbished just means it's already been fixed and may work better than new

    Why would you recommend this one over the others? I really would like to know the differences in them.

    Neutron GTX is based on the newer LAMD controller which doesn't have issues with uncompressible data like the older Sandforce controller does.
