I was originally considering getting a 240gb SSD but I now need to cut some cost and was thinking of getting the 120gb SSD.

I wanted to ask a question. Would I install windows and my most important games and programs on the SSD? Can I still install games and programs on the secondary data hdd?

Thanks

120GB is enough for Windows and a handful of games, but yes you can install on the HDD.

If you are getting a Z77 or Z68 pased board have you considered using SRT where the SSD (upto 64GB) acts as a cache for the HDD for SSD like performance on an HDD sized volume?

Ah right I wasn't aware of that. How would I go about setting up SRT? Upto 64gb... so I would have to choose the 60gb SSD?

Switch the OS to the HDD you want leave data drive blank and pick:

Intel Smart Response Technology for Z68 & Z77: 64 GB Crucial M4 Series SATA III Gaming MLC Solid State Disk
