    does the drive require additional cooling?

    Would have been nice to see results with just the controller overclocked and then just the bus overclocked, to see what made the most difference.

    If there is one thing I don't want to overclock, it's my storage device.

    A modern SSD is absurdly fast anyway. These differences, in the real world are going to be unnoticeable to the end user.

    I know, I know, we sometimes overclock because we can - I just wouldn't do it to one of my storage devices.

    If I ever feel the need to overclock my (already blisteringly fast) solid state drive, just kill me, my life is obviously empty.

    Exactly, I wonder who the market is for overclockable storage?

    Basically what they're showing is that they can easily sell different speed grades of products with the same hardware, just by clocking them differently, so they can create whatever the market demands

    I'd be more interested to see the power difference, particularly from underclocking/undervolting.

    Re: News - SSD overclocking demonstrated by Intel at Pax Prime

    what Kind of issues would this cause in terms of stability, SSD's in RAID 0 are already risky enough, if they were OC'd also, I fear they would loose more data than they'd save...

    Does this mean we could overclock the storage chips in phones and tablets which are often the thing causing it to be so slow

    Pah.

    Samsung 840 Evo burst speeds still demolish the Intel overclock. And it's probably a lot cheaper.

    And I don't want to tamper with my storage system and data!

    Honestly, if it's safe enough to overclock your storage like this, why doesn't it just come at faster speeds out of the box?! (yes I know they can't guarantee a consistent stable overclock across the range but it still seems absurd).

    Have a plan to measure it's impact on the drive's life?
