Trying to tap the group wisdom again.

After discovering that the X201 model is no longer available, I just
ordered a X220 and I am looking to get a SSD for it. All suggestions
welcome. The larger the better, I can afford to splurge a bit.

I remember a blog post from a linux driver developer, I'm 99% sure he is at=
 Redhat, where he explained how the best HDD SDD are from Intel after his e=
xperience testing and tuning the OS with diferent hw providers.

Seems I didn't save the link neither can't find it on Internet. If somebody=
 remember, please share it here.

At least I kept the Intel advice.
