That one, and the larger, faster, 160GB version, are the only ones I'd consider buying right now. I've seen a truly shocking number of OCZ Vertex (Indilinx-based) drives fail in various ways, and while the new Sandforce controller in the Vertex 2 and others looks really impressive, being bitten by the Indilinx makes me shy away from first designs.
For what it's worth, I have two 80GB Intel G2 units in RAID0 on my home workstation. Disclaimer: My sample size is fairly small, with around 45 Vertex drives and around 35 Intel G2 drives. > -----Original Message----- > From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware- > boun...@hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of Winterlight > Sent: Friday, May 21, 2010 11:43 PM > To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com > Subject: [H] Greg what do you think of this SSD? > > Intel X25-M Mainstream SSDSA2M080G2XXX 2.5" 80GB SATA II MLC Internal > Solid State Drive (SSD) You are the expert on these Greg...is this a good one? > Thanks
