Questions:
Is Corsair Force Series F60 a good choice?
Is Corsair Force Series F60 enough for,win7 ultimate 64bit + SP1+Updates+applications+games(modern games are getting bigger and bigger every day)
------------------------------------
Attachment A is my C:/ in clean install with all my applications and updates (without the SP1 or games)i never used more than 35gb in my hard disk.(I USE THE REST SPACE FOR GAMES)
So 35gb is in use,and with SP1 i will have FREE max space up to 20-22gb,is that enough?
--------------------------
Edit:
Attachment B is...
I install Dead Space 2 and now i have 42gb in use,i have 15-17gb with just one game installed,and again is that enough for future updates and games?
What is ur opinion?
--------------------------------
Edit:
Is there any game that use more than 20gb in hard disk?

It's enough, though a bit cramped. There are games that use upwards of 10Gb of space, don't know of any that use 20.

Ive got this drive as my windows Drive, its a little lacking in space go bigger if you can, follow the guidlines on installing this drive ACHI etc, trim...
I also just upgraded the firmware on the drive and for me it was totally painless,
disable hibernation,

Ok which one?

Corsair F60 is good ssd,but....emmm....small??
I use the max 30gb so the rest 30gb space is free but again 30gb i thing is a little small for gaming.
Thats why im thinking to buy a bigger size ssd
So....
OCZ Vertex 2 (E) Series - Solid state drive - 90 GB - internal - 2.5" - SATA-300
OR
Corsair Force Series F120 - Solid state drive - 120 GB - internal - 2.5" - SATA-300

Which is better and why? (i dont care for the size,90gb is more than enough for me,i care for better speed and quality/reliability)
-------------------------------------
If you have any other suggestions for ssd please do.
