Top3 for the 128 gb? The review from 256 gb mixing won't cut it out. >.>

Intell SSD 510
SATA 6gbps
34nm NAND
120GB capacity
Read - 450MB/s
Write - 210MB/s.

So my question would be, who's SSD's are these, as in, who makes them ?
Interesting fact is that the 120GB model takes a 68% speed hit on the sequential access write performance based on it's bigger brother (256GB = writes of 310MB/s)

I'm interested to see how these perform in the real world, Plextor are more known for their (now defunct) optical drive production, but, those are now nothing more than re-badged OEM Liteon Drives.

The Plextor drive is based on the latest Marvel controller. It is also used by Corsair, Intel, and Crucial.... each having a different firmware.
Looking at the reviews, an Intel 510 is better.
...but sequential is very NOT important in an OS/app drive.

Sorry, i did some crafty editting on that post cause i hit submit instead of preview by mistake.

And yes, the edit was to add in the Intel SSD 510 120GB
(the 250gb version has some stonking speeds, but is likely to have a heart attack inducing price tag !)

Vertex 3 seems to be the fastest "overall" SSD at the moment.

No doubt the C300 is a good drive, but overall in real world tests it is slower than a Vertex 3.

Storage review.com: "For the real-world traces we put OCZ Vertex 3 up against the Crucial RealSSD C300 and Corsair Force F120. We included both 3Gbps native speeds through an Intel ICH10R AHCI connection as well as 6Gbps native speeds through an LSI MegaRAID 9260. This puts each drive on a level playing field and helps to show how each drive might perform under optimal conditions. We knew the OCZ Vertex 3 was going to be fast... but not this fast. In one generation OCZ has managed to nearly double its speed in synthetic benchmarks and blow the socks off older drives in real-world scenarios. "

andatech says other wise for 4k read and he hates the C300: The new marvell drives are faster, id get one of them. like the M4 or the new corsair.

honestly up against the new marvell controller drives, the vertex 3 falls short, ananda said that the new M4 C400 gave him the fastest random write to date. only thin really the SF drives have are better sequential speeds, and yea they do hold up to the new marvell, but in real world performance the new intel 510, m4, or whatever corsair calls theirs will be faster. intel usually uses better NAND that lasts much longer, micron(crucial) is also known for this too.

Overall i'd say Vertex3 is the current champ

If you have the slot available, get the OCZ Revodrive X2, its faster than all of them. Even faster than any two of these raid 0.
