Since the throttling is based on power-on time rather than calendar time, and secure-erase does NOT eliminate throttling (as Ao1 found), it seems this Sandforce "feature" is worse than useless. No power user would want that monkey on his back...errr...SSD.

Has OCZ looked at the possibility of selling a model of Sandforce SSD with throttling disabled?
