SSD Write Endurance 25nm Vs 34nm

[Christopher]

And the Corsair's average is being generated with a dedupe friendly workload.

Not to mention the fact that it's also the 120GB version, which makes sense, as with 25nm async NAND you are looking at the same number of channels populated as a 60 with 34nm.

I'm a little worried that the Mushkin won't be much faster even if is a 60 with 32nm toggle NAND.

The block size and the compression has proven not to be dedup friendly on the SF controller, meaning there is next to no de-duplication done. (Vapor performed the test some time ago)
The 60GB will most likely have RAISE disabled, just like the other 60GB SF2 based drives.

Lets hope it's a bit faster than the sync/async ones.
The low capacity SF based drives have always been noticeably slower than their higher capacity siblings and so the toggle mode drive could be really interesting.
Don't get your hopes up too high though , compared to the "kamikaze-like" Samsung 470 drives I'm afraid most other drives are slow. (for this test pattern)

Running on my Z68, will have to move it later tonight, will try to get another Z68 ready tonight for both drives.
