Crucial Technology 256 GB Crucial RealSSD C300 Series Solid State Drive CTFDDAC256MAG-1G1 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The title says it all: 351 MB/s read 210 MB/s write.

My office Intel X25-E (only 64GB and the same price, although SLC) gives 240 and 170.

This is the only SATA III SSD on the market, and it shows the potential of this drive.
I can compile ahuge project in Visual Studio 2010 in 1/10 th the time it takes on a regular
drive. Ditto for videos.Random read writes are an unbelievable 50 times faster than a WD Velociraptor.

Other than a PCI-E based SSD (which are rather untested at this point), this is the safest bet.
And Crucial is as solid a memory company as it gets.

Other stuff:
You needSATA 3 cable (and a good one; if you are getting low speeds it is almos always because of a bad cable)
or the wrong port.

I updated the firmware without problems (or wait till they do it on the production versions).
Of course you need a SATA 3 motherboard, such as the Asus P6x58D and a good enough processor or the processor starts
being the bottleneck (say a core i7 975 or 980x).
