Hi

Generally using a fast SSD on the Intel SB ICH10R chip ports will be the best solution for you. The Crucial M4 or the Intel will not be miles apart and I doubt whether either will provide a noticeable difference on this motherboard.

so shall i go and pick samsung 830 ones ?!
by the way is there any way to improve the speed on marvell controller or even PCI-E card ?!
i saw this at newegg but i cant find any true reviews about it

any ideas ?!

I was advising choosing either the Crucial or the Intel SSDs.

If you want to pay more you can get much better speed by using a PCIE card instead of a SSD. Have a look at OCZ's RevoDrives the x3 is especially fast but even the X2 is still speedy and will knock spots off a SSD.

yea RevoDrives x2 is out of stock and x3 is off the budget
and i saw some review about Samsung 830 : http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/tests-ssd-review-solid-state,3103-9.html
64GB ones is the king of 64GB sizes  ?!
