It's the best consumer OS SSD, but by a small margin (in my opinion).
If it had higher sequential write speed then that would currently make it allot better for the times people have to HDDerase the drive and reload the OS.

So I do see what m^2 meant, by some of you trying to give the impression it's head and shoulders above the rest.

It's kind of a 285 Vs OC'ed 4890 amount of difference.

So I'm glad this new drive deals with the current drives Achilles heel as this was really the only major shortcoming.

Don't know whether to sell my x25 and pick up the newer one, or if there isn't any performance difference other than sequential write speed, to just pick up another cheap x25-m and raid 0.

Something must be happening because some ebayer's are selling these at £229.99 free shipping.
