Is A-DATA SSD SP900 128gb reliable?
Rarely come across this brand.

Anyone using this SSD?
Thanks!

Not so reliable imo, since i'm just look through newegg feedback.
Quite a few customers that stated it works good but the ssd dead/problematic like data loss after weeks/months of usage.
Besides it also has firmware problems that not sure fixed or not, some claims that can't update to the latest firmware though official website to solve trim command option in OS.
Lastly, customer service looks bad by most bad feedback.
Performance is still reasonable. Try dig some latest reviews if u really wanted this ssd before buying.
This brand is quite often seen in US/Europe i guess. Rarely seen any reseller of this brand in MY.

I become ever more hopeful that in 2-3 years time, the same RM600 that get us 256G now could land us a 1TB SSD. If they come in PCIe 3  wub.gif  rclxms.gif bye bye SATA  thumbup.gif

Hopefully it will be cool2.gif , then may eventually replace mechanical drives if at the similar price.
Saw a review at somewhere, pcie 2.0 can support up to 1gb+ per sec transfer speed. Not sure what will get from pcie 3.0 rclxub.gif .

Because previously Crucial M4 is best bang for buck for someone to look for ssd as normal usage.
Now Plextor M5S offer cheaper, better performance than M4 and thats why people are recommend M5S over M4 icon_rolleyes.gif .

Intel SSD 530 Series High Performance Client SSDs Launched

Intel launched its newest line of high-performance client SSDs, the SSD 530 series. Built in the 7 mm-thick 2.5-inch, 80 mm M.2, and mSATA form-factors, with SATA 6 Gb/s interface, these drives come in capacities starting from 80 GB. In the 2.5-inch form-factor, the SSD 530 series is available in 80 GB, 120 GB, 180 GB, 240 GB, 360 GB, and 480 GB variants; the 80 mm M.2 and mSATA form-factors it will be sold to OEMs in 80 GB, 120 GB, 180 GB, and 360 GB.

In its product brief, Intel didn't mention performance numbers specific to capacities, but gave out numbers applicable to all capacities - up to 540 MB/s reads, up to 490 MB/s writes, up to 41,000 IOPS 4K random reads, and up to 80,000 IOPS 4K random writes. The series is built around the latest version of SandForce SF-2281 controller with a few LSI refinements. It's based on Intel's 20 nm MLC NAND flash. The SSD 530 series, at least in the 2.5-inch form-factor, are expected to displace SSD 525 and SSD 520 series models from their current price-points.
