340 370 both JMicron JMF667H(bigger capacity limited) & Silicon Motion controller, later version does 30-40MB/s faster. I don't use VM/heavy multitask, can skip the cache trick. 320 slower & current price not worth for it.

fyi 340 (on dell 7520SE) after boot up temp abt 44-45c, gaming abt 55-57c, might quite high for some user.



some of u may take a look panasonic ssd + caddy on lelong, the bundle seem good. (ocz good? )

my transcend ssd after fw update







the Plextor M6e BE

Turbo off

cheap low costing, and much better than kingston v300 (after changing to slow nand flash), and no provisioning on ssd340.

the fw update method quite dumb on ssd340, will wipe off the drive data

guess ssd340 no longer available, ssd370 now. ya, for laptop purpose it fast, cheap & good enough, though the 256GB model will double the 128gb write speed.




those scary high speed ssd really good for big large fast require database like tesco/mydin.

nice, pc mobo fully utilize the ssd speed.

my lap c216 chipset only around 480-490 reading on ssd340 128
