Samsung 830 SSD

I am planning to use Samsung 830 SSD for my first build. Is it a good choice coz custom build info only shows sandisk. Plz advise.

It's what I use in mine and it works great. Also Apple use the Samsung 830 controller in the Retina MacBook Pros and Anandtech recommend them as the most stable SSDs for Macs.

The samsung 830 will work like a charm, 2 other great options would be the samsung 840 or the crucial m4.

The only reason Sandisk is listed is because it was the best bang for buck at the time of writing. SSDs are not a compatibility issue. Samsung 830 will work excellently.
