QUOTE(everling @ Mar 29 2011, 02:54 PM) http://www.anandtech.com/show/4244/intel-ssd-320-review I'm not sure about the smaller ones, but the 300GB version is quite price competitive. It's about the same price as the X25-M 160GB when it launched a year and a half ago, and slightly more than the 256GB drives in the market.A rather bland SSD made less interesting by lack of competitive pricing.   For my workstation, I'd consider the promise of reliability more important than I would consider some extra 10,000 IOPS or 100MB/s which I can't notice under workstation use anyway. |

It's not a 50% drop, but it is still much cheaper per GB than the competition.For my workstation, I'd consider the promise of reliability more important than I would consider some extra 10,000 IOPS or 100MB/s which I can't notice under workstation use anyway. |

Intel makes some of the best SSD's around
 As expected, they have very low failure rate so I'm not sure what made people go for other brands thinking the extra speed on papers would make a difference but in fact, you rarely notice it on normal computing usage. It's like DDR3-1333 and DDR3-2133 so yes, it makes a difference but too small to bother unless people needs to copy gigabytes of data daily.What matters is the read speed and random access times and we benefit from it the most. Write speed would help but how often do we copy chunks of files or endless installing software? |

I recently take a tour in SSD section in garage sales n saw OCZ Vertex 2 plummeting.180GB is shockingly at RM1099.what a great bargain but i'm wondering why there's a big price slash.welcome party for Vertex 3 perhaps.

QUOTE To be recorded the VAS had to be made directly through the merchant, which is not always the case since it is possible to return directly from the manufacturer: however, this represents a minority in the first year. SOS- Maxtor 1.04% (against 1.73%) - Western Digital 1.45% (against 0.99%) - Seagate 2.13% (against 2.58%) - Samsung 2.47% (against 1.93%) - Hitachi 3.39% (against 0.92%) Hitachi is plummeting, which was first in the previous ranking! Western Digital retained its second place despite a failure rate increasing, while Maxtor is occupying the first place. More specifically the failure rate for 1TB drives: - 5.76% Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000.B - 5.20% Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000.C - 3.68% Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 - 3.37%: Samsung SpinPoint F1 - 2.51% Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 - 2.37%: WD Caviar Green WD10EARS - 2.10% Seagate Barracuda LP - 1.57%: Samsung SpinPoint F3 - 1.55%: WD Caviar Green WD10EADS - 1.35%: WD Caviar Black WD1001FALS - 1.24%: Maxtor DiamondMax 23 Hitachi is logically the less well placed, what with two separate lines! What about the 2 TB version? - 9.71%: WD Caviar Black WD2001FASS - 6.87% Hitachi Deskstar 7K2000 - 4.83%: WD Caviar Green WD20EARS - 4.35% Seagate Barracuda LP - 4.17%: Samsung EcoGreen F3 - 2.90%: WD Caviar Green WD20EADS Overall, failure rates recorded are bad. That does not really want to entrust to 2TB of data to these discs alone: a mirroring will not be too much for securing data. Logically 7200 rpm disks are less reliable than the 5400/5900 rpm, with almost 10% for the Western model! For the first time, we also integrate SSDs in this article type. The rates of failure recorded by manufacturer: - Intel 0.59% - Corsair 2.17% - Crucial 2.25% - Kingston 2.39% - OCZ 2.93% Intel stands here with a failure rate of the most flattering. Among the few models sold over 100 copies, displays a rate of no more than 5% VAS. My mistake in thinking that these are SF failure rates. It probably included them Indillix and JMicrons too Website is in French. Used google translator to translate. My guess is that you don't simply post failure rates or the manufacturers will sue till your pants drop. I guess there must be some truth to this, but I am taking it with a grain of salt This post has been edited by kaiserreich: Apr 1 2011, 10:25 AM |

If it is uses a SandForce controller of the same generation as the Vertex 2, then it will have a similarly good performance.This post has been edited by everling: Apr 2 2011, 03:34 PM |
