SSD for mid-2010 13" MBP C2D

[SirCarrington]

I installed a Kingston SV200 series SSD which caused my MacBook to beach ball for 20 seconds every 7 minutes or so. After an assload of reading I've come to the conclusion that it's a compatibility issue.

Can someone recommend, or point to a link of, a cheap SSD that will work in my particular MacBook? I'm looking for around a 120GB.

Give the Samsung 840 Evo a whirl - just installed one today on my 2010 MBP and it runs like a charm!

Second vote for EVO. But honestly, sounds like you just need a reinstall of the operating system.
