I haven't had to reinstall the OS since windows 7 came out. Quite the opposite to the crap they called vista.
+1 voteFrom my (limited) understanding of Australian consumer protection laws, it is the sellers resposibility to pay for return postage:

Do I have to pay to return the goods to the seller?
The consumer guarantees require you to return goods to the place where they were purchased unless it is not reasonable for you to do so. For example, it would be reasonable to expect you to return an item if you were able to easily take it away with you when you purchased it. However, if the item is large, heavy or bulky or needed to be delivered, the seller should arrange for this to be returned.
+1 voteWhilst that's the ruling set out by ACCC, have a read in the forums how often it's flaunted. It's going to take time and money and a painful experience to try to RMA sometimes.
It's like when i bought a 2nd hand car, it was clearly stated that all defects IS to be covered by the dealer as the car is under 120k kms and below the age of 10 years old. How the car passed the inspection with a leaky exhaust is already questionable. When asked to fix the issue.. they never did… a few times. I contacted fair trade… yada yada bla bla.. they showed a "receipt" of them fixing it. Needed to pay to go to court .. bla bla bla…
Forget it. Not worth the couple of hundreds and my time.
So again.. whist it may be listed as a rule.. dodgy people will be dodgy people.

ShoppingSquare make you pay for return postage, even when they admit the item was defective. We posted a faulty tablet back twice. They refunded our money when it was still faulty, but minus the three postage amounts (one to get it sent to us, the other two to send it back). We were out of pocket over $40 at the end it all. Other times we have been sent incorrect items from SSquare and they have denied that they sent the wrong thing (different brand, missing parts). I'm not saying don't buy this, just caveat emptor.

+1 voteThe Samsung 830 has the most proven trackrecord of reliabilty (for current gen drives)
The Intel 330 is a much newer drive so there isn't as much data to go from but so far there haven't been any bad reports about it. Intel's previous model drives were the most reliable ones available.
The Sandisk has a Sandforce controller which have had many reliability problems since being released.

Bought the Sandisk 120GB, the power connector broke when I plugged it into my computer. Had to jump through hoops and argue back and forth with the support team until I got an email from Kingston telling me I would get it replaced and to contact the place of purchase. Bit disappointed with the support, price was meh, centrecom.com.au is selling them at the same price.
