    Re: News - Patriot pushes forward with performance on Warp SSDs

    I imagine it'd be pretty telling if they posted their random write speed. After all this time, I suspect it's still only Intel that have actually got SSDs right. Most companies seem to be obsessed with posting the highest sequential read/write speeds, at the cost of all else. Idiots.

    It's not on the right hand side because your browser window is so tiny.

    Samsung SSD's are pretty good for random write latency and speed as well as the OCZ Vertex SSD, they aren't as fast as Intel's SSD(by a pretty small margin anyway) but they at least work without stuttering and don't have horrendous 200ms random latency and 0.7mb/s random write speed like the JMicron drives have.

    Best review on SSD's I've ever read is here> http://www.anandtech.com/storage/showdoc.aspx?i=3531

    Very long and very detailed, gives you a much better understanding of what to look for when purchasing a SSD drive

    Re: News - Patriot pushes forward with performance on Warp SSDs

    Just took a punt on a Vertex 120Gb drive this week, and confirm that so far, no stuttering - a huge relief as my experience of the "bigger" SSD in those eeePCs (the 12Gb drives as opposed to the 4Gb) was horrible.

    Seems like the new controllers really help.

    From what anandtech were saying, it's not so much the controllers as the firmware. This sequential read/write fascination really has to die...

    Yeah, Anand has done two really good articles on SSDs - once when the Intel drives first came out, and this one also.

    It drives me mad that companies are marketing these things on sequential reads/writes alone. It's so incredibly short-sighted, and it'll do them harm in the long run. Intel, on the other hand, only seem to go from strength to strength these days. A truly incredible company*.



    * nonetheless, I hope AMD give them a good whooping soon

    Re: News - Patriot pushes forward with performance on Warp SSDs

    show me a 300GB~ish SSD and then we're talking.

    and btw, I don't give 2 ****s about sequential read/write speed. How dumb do they think we are? The ONLY people interested in buying these SSDs right now are the ones who can see right through this advertising BS. It's insulting, frankly, and I make it a point to hold a grudge against companies that try to pull this nonsense. The benchmark should be random read/write speeds or GTFO.

    Quoted for the truth!

    Although really you want all four benchmarks.
