search for ppl who bulk from u.s online stores and you can get it.

bloody exp but if you do, post some benchies here yeah 

I can do it on special order basis.
Upfront deposit is required to avoid ffk.

Hey, if your friend is bringing it back personally, it shouldn't cost that much even if he wants to charge you some fee. Amazon sells for $280 with free US shipping. Otherwise, use a freight forwarder service, shipping probably would cost ~$50 (being generous here, I think it would actually be less). That goes up to less than RM1050. Reach you < 2 weeks (depending on your US->MY shipping option).

Computex 2011: OCZ Z-Drive R4 88, Eight SF-2281 Controllers in RAID-0

Kingston shows its first SandForce-based SSD
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, June 7, 2011 - 7:03 PM N/A

Kingston just announced its first SandForce-based solid state disks, they feature a SATA 6Gbps interface and use 25nm NAND flash memory from Intel. And check out the newser configurable over provisioning option.

The specifications promise sequential read speeds of up to 525MB/s and write speeds as high as 480MB/s. Sustained random 4K read/write performance is 20,000 / 60,000 IOPS for the 120GB unit and 40,000 / 60,000 IOPS for the 240GB model, while max random 4K read/write performance is 95,000 / 70,000 IOPS and 95,000 / 60,000 IOPS, respectively.

Shipping in 120GB and 240GB capacities, the HyperX SSD is based on SandForce SF-2281 controllers featuring SATA Rev 3.0 (6Gb/s). It allows for incredible sequential read/write throughputs of 525/480MB/s, IOPS of 40,000/60,000 (240GB), and SandForce DuraClass™ Technology to provide best in class endurance.

Enthusiasts have long known the Kingston HyperX brand as the industry leader in cutting edge memory. The new HyperX SSD continues this tradition of innovation and high performance by pairing the latest SandForce controller with Intel® 25nm compute NAND (P/E 5K) to provide the performance and endurance that the most demanding users require.

Key Features of the Kingston HyperX SSD:

    Intel 25nm Compute NAND (P/E 5K):
    5K compute NAND provides significant endurance increase over standard 3K cycle NAND.
    Advanced Wear-Leveling Technology:
    Advanced algorithm ensures individual flash memory blocks are consumed at a very balanced rate enabling maximum endurance while maintaining optimal performance.
    User Configurable Over Provisioning*:
    The HyperX SSD allows for user configurable over provisioning, which enables the user to tweak the SSD’s performance per their specific performance needs. The user can increase the size of the over provisioned spare area; consequently, reducing the overall capacity of the drive while increasing the speed and performance.
    TRIM and S.M.A.R.T Support:
    With additional support for both TRIM and S.M.A.R.T., the HyperX SSD is equipped with all essential tools enthusiasts, heavy users and gamers need to make the most of their PC’s performance and drive endurance.
    DuraClass™ Technology:
    DuraClass Technology represents a set of NAND Flash management features that work in tandem to deliver world-class SSD reliability, performance, and power efficiency that differentiate SandForce SSD Processors from other Flash controllers.

HyperX Upgrade Kit Includes:

    Acronis® True Image™ HD migration software
    HyperX 2.5" Desktop Mounting Plate
    HyperX USB External Drive Bay
    HyperX Multi-Head Screwdriver
    HyperX SATA Data Cable

Intel 710 Series Lyndonville SSDs Get Priced
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, July 7, 2011 - 8:22 PM N/A

Expected for a release early next quarter already are the Intel's 710 Series “Lyndonville” enterprise solid state drives According to some etailers here in Europe the 100GB model might debute at an astaunding €554.

Two major European e-tailers are listing the prices as we speak, both of these online stores feature similar prices and the 100GB, 200GB and 300GB SSDs are listed at €554.50, €1108.99 and €1663.50, respectively.

The prices are so high that we doubt validity at the moment to be honest.

According to previous information, Lyndonville SSDs will be able to achieve sequential read/write speeds of 270MB/s and 210MB/s respectively, while their 4K random read/write performance is rated at 36K/2.4K IOPS (input/output operations per second).

Intel 520 Series SSD to Utilize SandForce Controller
5 years on SF controller 

i hope they manage to solved the random BSOD problems on sandforce. if they do then intel will be king
