What's interesting about the X25 is that they managed to pull the

I finally found a good analysis of what's wrong with most of the cheap MLC

240ms random write latency...wow, no wonder I keep hearing so many reports
of cheap SSD just performing miserably. JMicron is one of those companies
I really avoid, never seen a design from them that wasn't cheap junk.
Shame their awful part is in so many of the MLC flash products.
