    Still haven't had time to read through much of those threads yet, will do soon though hopefully.

    So this results in worse performance compared to a 2R0 of similarly specced SSD's going via ICH10R?

    There are countless reports of compatibility and data integrity issues and performance drops like a stone as there is no TRIM support and it’s very doubtful that there ever will be on the current models.
    Personally I would not touch one with a 10ft barge pole, but each to his own
    A colleague recently got one and is quite happy, granted he's only had it for a few days.
    And I think he may be only using it as a scratch-disk...

    Night.
