I guess i got some bad advice then I was told the kingston snv125-s2 used almost the exact same hardware as an x25-m and should be considered the "poor mans" x25-m

Right, i couldn't find any of the 40 gb's in stock so i ordered the 64 gb.....same exact model, only bigger....does your previous statement about the larger model ssd's not apply to the kingstons?
The SNV125-S2/40GB is the "half an X25-M" drive which can be "often" found as a bare OEM drive for about $85 w/ rebate. Kingston does sell rebranded Intel SLC drives as well, but under a different model number: SNE-125S2/32 or SNE-125S2/64. I don't believe the 64GB Kingston MLC (SNV-125S2/64) is based on Intel's controller. The Kingston rebranding of the "gen2" intel MLC design is SNM-125S2B/80 or SNM-125S2B/160. Those are essentially 34nm Intel X25-M units I believe. --eric -- Eric D.
