    Not sf-2000. This is an overclocked marvell controller used on the micron c300 series. Was this drive used just for benching, or did you bench on this drive as the os drive?

    ah, that's why performance numbers looks so low. Not bad for 50% filled. Most reviews only test fresh. Thanks a lot!

    I didnt realise it affected it so much, I should've tested it blank when I got it but I was in a rush to put my old SSD in my netbook

    Very nice sequential speeds.
    Low 4K writes, reads; 4K-64 writes, reads?
    Higher read access time... Greatly improved write access time.
    Doesn't seem very attractive. Firmware issues?

    4k speeds absoulately suck, waiting for the sf2000!

    Another thing I find funny is AMD/Intel would snipe any of our Moms on a grocery run if it meant good quarterly results, and you are forever whining about what feser did?

    Could you post some of yours? I agree, these look quite a bit off.

    This uses the same controller as the Plextor M2 SSD's, correct? I was thinking these were the C400, but as stated in the first post it looks like a tweaked C300 controller, am I correct on this?

    Can you post results mate? How's sequential read and write compare?
