Patriot Warp v3 - 256 GB SSD - Worlds first review

[Soulburner]

To be fair though, small file writes have always been the weak point of all disk drives, they just really seem to crawl on flash memory.

Not on all SSDs though, just check the random write test over here (the third graph).

I only skimmed through the review, just to see if I could find what controller is used on this SSD. Maybe I missed it, but could you tell me what controller is used in this drive?

SLC-drives could do far better if they'd get as much attention as the ones with MLC imho. MLC is far more difficult to organize for the controller than SLC.

Can the Indilinx be used with SLC as well? Would be interesting to see the difference.

Compared with what?
Because a WD velociraptor has 1.63Mb/sec transfer for 4KB Random Write Speed copied from here http://www.anandtech.com/storage/sho...px?i=3531&p=25

and this drive here it seems to do 2Mb/sec
