Speed Demon

Considering SSD, and this drive is an excellent value for your dollar, while keeping speed with high marks.

Worked perfectly on install using SATA3. Was able to install Windows 7 off USB drive in under 10 minutes to this. Moving from 7200RPM SATA2 drives to this feels worlds apart.

None, it's been flawless.

It doesn't come with a 2.5" to 3.5" mounting kit. The Rosewill I purchased worked just fine with this drive for me though. It doesn't claim to have a kit, but just be aware you'd possibly need one.

I run Intel Core i5-3570K, with GIGABYTE GA-H77M-D3H Board, with 8GB RAM. That configuration with this drive gave me times of 4 minutes to install Office 2010 (from iso), Under 5 for Photoshop CS5. Windows 7 boots in 8-10 seconds.

You won't be let down with the speed, that's for sure.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Buggy

Very fast when working properly. Buggy firmware

Worked great until 5000+ hours runtime. Drive came with firmware 0009. Systems started freezing up consistently and drive would disappear from BIOS until a power down and reboot. Flashed with 010G firmware and restored image to drive.

Not real happy about this. I just kicked a bunch of Vertex 3's to the curb and now this. Does anyone make a decent SSD?
