This is an Intel X25M SSD (G1)
- Pros: Super fast access time @ 0.1ms. Windows 7 loads in about 8 seconds flat and that is at the desktop waiting on me to do something! Shutdown times are almost instantaneous. Running with my i5 @4GHz this baby screams!
- Cons: Very easy to setup and locate around the case. Buy some velcro (sp) strips to secure it to your case. This thing is so light that is only needs a little sticky tape or velcro to secure.
- Other Thoughts: This SSD feels faster than my 4x raptor Raid 0 array. Throughput is about 230MB/s with this and I got 290 with my raptors, but the access time more than makes up for this difference. I thought I would need to raid 0 two of these drives together but no, the speed of a single disk is more than adequate. I believe this is the G1 version of the Intel X25, but it is still faster than the OCZ (non SLC/extreme) drive. Only second to the Intel G2 and not by much.
Supurb!
- Pros: Very fast and seems to be realialble. Takes up very little space in my desktop (XPS420) Boots in about 15 Seconds on this 80 GB version and eisily holds Office 2007 and other favorite programs. Using a Raided 1 with 1 TB mechanical drives for data storagel. I bought another one, to put in my laptop with great results.
- Cons: I'm not excactly sure because I was so surprised, but lately, they have gone up in price by about $100.0. Oh well, these will do for now, and eventuatly, the price per GB will come done.
- Other Thoughts: Cool, quiet, efficient, can't get enough of them. I have had no slow downs or studders, They are made by Intel and the -M- series is impressive.
Stomps all other SSDs
- Pros: Upgraded my Lenovo T61, Vista boots lightning quick, apps load quicker, gained some battery life. This is the easiest way to upgrade the performance of your laptop or desktop. PCMark scores went up 120% just by swapping the HDD for the Kingston SSD
- Cons: wish my laptop can could do raid zero so I could stripe 2 of these. My gamer desktop is next.
