I'm still waiting on 3.3.2 FW, but no sign yet. I'd imagine it should be around in a week or two.
??
If I can tame the file delete problems, I can add or remove static data at will. Right now I have 12.7GB of static data. There has never been more than 17 and never less than 12GB.
12.7GB/55.7 is 22.8 percent static data.

3.3.2 just released for the MCDx.
I just upgraded so I can see what happens...
I'm going to leave it as is until Thursday, then I'm going to put it back in my main system over the weekend and see what happens. If its still working when I get back on Sunday, then I think it will be looking good.

I'm seeing a small but noticeable decrease in speed in terms of average MB/s with the new 3.3.2 FW.
The Samsung 830 launched in the States today and is generally available. Supposedly, it comes with Norton Ghost AND a voucher for Batman: Arkham Asylum, according to thessdreview.com, but I don't see it listed as being included with the retail kit at Newegg.com.
The 64GB version might be a good test candidate...
I agree. The Samsung 830 is a good candidate

3: Asus U31JG - X25-M G2 160GB
I've heard that Samsung says that all of the capacities of 830 perform the same... while I'm not sure I believe that (the 64 can't be as fast as the 256). If it's just a much faster 470, you could kill the 470 in about 10 days...
I'm sure that no review site will get a 120GB 830, but its probably almost as fast as the 256/512s. The 830 has some pretty good measured latency and astounding sequential writes.
According to Anandtech it's only the read speed that is the same on all capacities. Write decreases with the smaller sizes.

That makes a lot more sense. 520MBs reads and 160MBs on writes for the 64GB model according to Anand's chart. That is actually pretty good. If you test the Mushkin with incompressible data you get about those figures. With the Mushkin though, if you ever get the urge to write a couple TB of zeros, you can do so at 300MBs sustained. Why you would ever want to, I don't know, but it's nice to know you could. The 64GB 830 would seem to be a good deal faster than the M4 64GB, but I suspect those two might be pretty close in actual performance.
Well, we'll just have to wait and see. It depends on the controllers ability to handle the load, but maybe it's just as good or better than the m4.

I missed the 2 new reallocation events today. In the grand scheme of things two reallocs aren't very consequential, but I think it's noteworthy until it happens every day. The M4 is smoking the competition in that respect.
Speed went back up to normal, about 129MBs.
