So I actually already bought the Intel SSD, but I still haven't revived it so it's returnable. I currently have a 120GB OCZ SSD, but wanted a bigger one, and then I saw Newegg had the 240GB 730's for $100.00. What sorta performance am I going to get out of it?

Would the Samsung 850 Pro be worth it even if it's $80.00 more for the same size?
 
Solution
They are both much faster than the Agility drive. The difference between the Samsung and Intel in sequential read and write is not significant enough to warrant making a change towards one or the other based on anything other than price. The random read and write speeds though are in favor of the 850, but for the price, the 730 is a good buy.
