Hi,
I’ve got to drill four holes in my concrete floor. Previously I’ve been unsuccessful drilling the floor with a normal corded hammer drill. I also have a concrete roof, again I have been unsuccessful in drilling when I’ve put up lights (managed to secure them in the 20 mm of gritty plaster). I will need to drill the floor and ceiling in the future too.
I believe I need an SDS-plus drill.
Should I hire one for each project or shall I buy a cheap one?

or
http://www.screwfix.com/prods/88854/Power-Tools/SDS-Drills/Titan-PDH26S6-6kg-SDS-Plus-Drill
The links are within my budget but I wondered if a hired one has more features I might need or, more umph or something; I know nothing about SDS drills? Will the ones I’ve linked serve me well enough as an occasional DIYer? Is the more expensive one much better?
Many Thanks,
soup
