Built for SpeedCorsair’s Force Series GT uses the new SandForce SF-2200 controller with native support for SATA 6Gb/s, combined with ONFI synchronous flash memory. Force Series GT SSDs deliver outstanding read/write performance and significantly faster system response, boot times, and application load times than SATA 2 solid-state drives, with out-of-box performance of up to 85K Random Write IOPS, read speeds of up to 555MB/s. The Force Series GT is particularly adept at moving compressed data. You'll appreciate this real-world benefit if you work with music, movie and graphics files.
SSD Benifits – Reliability, Cool and Quiet, with Low Power ConsumptionBecause SSDs have no moving parts, they can handle shock, vibration and temperature changes far in excess of traditional hard drives. That's important for desktop PCs, and essential for notebooks. Traditional mechanical hard drives spin at thousands of revolutions per minute. This takes power, and generates noise and heat. Since SSDs have no moving parts, there's no noise or vibration, and the lower power consumption helps keep things cool inside your PC.
Trim SupportThe Force Series GT SSDs feature support for the Windows 7 TRIM command. This allows them to store only the data they need and perform memory optimization to ensure the fastest possible write speeds.
3.5" AdapterAll Force Series GT SSDs are backward compatible with SATA 3Gb/s. The 2.5" form factor allows for installation in most notebook PCs with no adapter required. If you're adding a Force Series GT SSD to your desktop PC, use the included 3.5" adapter to mount it in any standard hard drive bay.

Pros: This drive is very fast and achieves the specs. It is a good price for the performance and capacity. Well built.
Cons: Does not come with software to move everything off you're old drive. Some people seem to have problems with the drive hanging from time to time. I think it has do with AHCI. I tried on in AHCI and experienced this problem. However, with 1 or more in RAID I did not have this problem. So just set your peripherals to RAID and it should stop. Because its an easy fix I did not remove an EGG
Overall Review: Newegg is so much better than "the big online retailer". I bought one on "the big one" with expedited shipping ($6.00) and it took it over a week to ship. That's not expedited!! I bought another on Newegg with free shipping and it took 1 day.
