Pros: Fast, reliable, cheap
Cons: NONE
Cons: NONE
I have three of these in RAID 0 and they are very reliable, been running these for the last 8 months and they are excellent.
Here are a few benchmarks:
Samsung F3's in RAID 0 with a 64kb stripe size.
Here are my results.
Full raid 0 without shortstroke:
Now with a 150gb shortstroke:
AS SSD benchmark without shortstroke:
Atto benchmark without shortstroke:
Overall I would say these drives are fantastic and I highly recommend them.
10/10

Pros: Very stable, quiet, good price (when I bought it at least).
Cons: None, except maybe it's not some raptor but who cares at this price.

I no longer own it since I gave it to my friend, no issues for him there. His brother also purchases one too. At the time of writing this, the price has gone up due to the 2011 Thailand flood, but in the future when people are reading this it won't matter.
I purchased the product in early 2010 I'd say.

Pros: Solid.
Cons: None
Cons: None
This drive is in my LAn rig and works like a charm. Plenty quick, tons of storage, and reliable. I am going to pick up a few more of these to go in my desktop soon and raid them.
Seems to be the best drive on the market for the price at the moment that I have found.

Pros: Fast, 1TB, Reliable
Cons: Not as fast as a WD Black

Bought two of these bad boys for RAID0 a year ago. I still have yet to have a problem with these drives at all. They're absolutely solid performers. They're not too loud, they're extremely fast (I'm almost always the first to load into a game), and they're 1TB obviously.
Only problem now is the prices, but that's hopefully going to come down sometime soon. I wouldn't buy them until they drop back down to around $80 each or cheaper. But once that happens, I'd happily buy more of these.
