I recently discovered OWC SSDs which are a serious competitor to the Crucial M4 and Vertex 3 SSDs. Anantech published a great review here:

There are no reviews of the V3 high IOPS yet. What do you think? Which SSD drive is the overall best?
Consider the following in no particular order:
1. Reliability
2. Speed
3. Wear leveling recovery / trim performance - long term performance of the drive (they are warrantied for three years)
4. Real world, touch it, feel it benefits - which drive gives the most real-world bang for your buck?
5. Ease of use
So which drive is the overall winner. Remember OCZ has a poor reputation for reliability but that may be because they sell more drives than OWC and Crucial
