    Corsair 120GB SSD Force 3 Series

    So, I bought a new computer (in parts) the parts are sent and directly after Corsair pulls just that SSD back from sale.
    I get an BSOD and I'm now considering shipping it back to the place I bought it from and get another SSD (since that is what they promised).

    Do you guys know of any SSD that is as good and at around that price?
    I considered OCZ SSD Agility 3 120GB, but since it is also supported by the SandForce SF-2200 controller which caused the Corsair to malfunction I dunno.
    Thoughts?

    Many thanks,
    Kevin

    You should try call Corsair maybe, as they know more about the problems.

    But as i recall, this was a while ago now, so maybe it is fixed now?

    The recall was issued last week. Return the drive, as you will be fully compensated.

    Think I will go with that one actually, I have read up more about that SSD and it seems like it is working well for atleast 99%
    of the discs.
    And they cost the same at the site I bought it from.

    Was there something else that was "not working as intended" earlier then? Cause remember that i read something about something that was being recalled by the manufacturer due to faulty.

    Earlier this year there was a problem Motherboards using Sandy Bridge chipsets, and a recall was issued for that.

    I sent my Corsair back yesterday and got all the money back. For those money I bought an OCZ Agility 3 and it's working perfectly!

    They have had two recalls in a short amount of time. The Force 3 Series recall being the latter.
