World-Class reliability – better by designThe Intel SSD 320 Series features new industry leading, compute-quality Intel 25nm NAND Flash memory manufacturing processes and an advanced architecture that employs 10 parallel NAND flash channels (5 channels for 40GB) equipped with multi-level cell NAND flash memory. With powerful Native Command Queuing that enables up to 32 concurrent operations, the Intel SSD 320 Series delivers outstanding IOPS and throughput performance that drastically outperform traditional hard disk drives. The Intel SSD 320 Series also features low write amplification and a unique wear-leveling design for higher reliability; meaning Intel SSDs not only perform better, they last longer.

Pre-configured Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 128-bit encryption capabilities give you peace of mind that your personal data is secured by advanced encryption technologies in the event of theft or loss of your computer. Additionally, two new data protection features guard your data from an unexpected system power loss or a faulty NAND array.

Pros: Snappy drive, boots Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) in ~15 seconds, returns from Sleep mode in 1 second, shuts down in 3 seconds
Cons: Write speeds are not any better than what you'd find on a typical 5,400 RPM HDD
Overall Review: I purchased this SSD to build a home theater PC. This was my first home build and I feel like it has been a good starter drive. With Windows 7 Home Premium installed, I have just under 19 GB still free, which will be plenty for my needs as I store most of my files in the cloud.
