Intel X25-M G2: Previews & Reviews

[mstp2009]

I thought that those were 4k read speeds for a single disk. 2 in raid and only 23 mb?

Go look at what two WD Velociraptors do at 4k chunks in Raid 0 and then you will see how impressive these numbers are.

This should put things into perspective (single disk numbers, but they make my point):

Also, don't forget that most RAID controllers have a lot of trouble keeping up w/ SSDs. They were simply not designed for the kinds of I/O that these devices bring to bear when multiple SSDs are hooked up to one controllers.

The good controllers that can utilize SSDs in RAID fully cost more than the SSDs.

this information is boring compared to AMD HD58xx information

What kind of a post is that? To each their own.

I think some of these etailers are shady. I bought the 160GB G2 a few days ago from a place called PCUniverse because they claimed they were in stock.

The next day I received a backorder notice...

I am well aware of how impressive the numbers are when compared with a mechanical HD

I own a single Vertex 60 and I get 29 mb/s on 4k reads. Intel exceeds in the 4k area. He should be getting far higher than 23/24 mb/sec on a dual 80GB Raid0 setup.

I suppose if you looked at your own charts and compared them with the Kersh's results, you would see roughly linear scaling for 4k writes, but a strange non-growth in 4k reads.
