for the M4 issue, i think it's looks more likely a memory issue rather than an HD problem...

Btw,
check thru many forums pertaining SAMSUNG 830 vs M4, 830 got most of the votes. Why a?

Because given any day, I'd take the Samsung 830 if not for its price.
I have a Samsung 830 in my laptop and I love it more than the M4s that I have in my desktops.

While most users won't be able to notice the difference in real world usage, the 830 is indeed faster than the M4 and is just as reliable if not better.

In the end, this will just be another SF-2281/2282 based SSD with synchronous NANDs (ONFi 2.x).
It's not going to outperform an Intel 520, but will match it. Good thing is that Hynix sell their products somewhat cheaper than most.

So let's see its price point then when it (or if) comes to Malaysia.

LAMD just released a new ssd controller. Wont hynix use it like OCZ?

i has strong feeling that Hynix is using SF chipset as "market scout" hmm.gif

Meaning branding it SF but using a different silicon inside? I doubt they will though.
It'd be interesting if they do.
For RM800 you can get -
Crucial M4 64GB or Intel 330 60GB = ~RM280
For HDD you can get the Seagate 3TB (ST3000DM001) = RM480

Total RM760.

Reason getting the 3TB Seagate HDD is because it is the fastest HDD out there now after the Western Digital Velociraptor 1TB.

i meant, they use SF controller at their product for now, to test market feedback then they start to use their own controllers (LAMD)

Thanks for the credits bro. Apparently CyntrixTech has done a good job to promote Crucial SSDs as well.

So i heard local distros is pulling off from distributing Crucial products. Any reason behind this? smile.gif

Btw, not really pulling off, just not focus on M4
