Intel’s mSATA SSD 310 reviewed: the pint-size performer through & through
The forecast 4 speedy, razor-thin laptops`s look`g pretty sunny right about now, because it seems Intel’s SSD 310 truly does br`g the power of the full-sized solid state drive on the tiny little board. Storage Review & The SSD Review thoroughly benchmarked the tiny 80GB mSATA module this week, & found it performs even better than advertised — easily tear`g through 200MB / sec reads & 70 MB / sec writes — which put it slightly behind Intel’s legendary X25-M series although (unless) well ahead of the company’s X25-V boot drives . While we’re still not see`g Sandforce speeds from Intel’s tried-and-true controller & 34nm silicon & they might not make Toshiba’s Blade run 4 the hills, V can’t wait to test it out in some new Lenovo ThinkPads when they integrate the SSD 310 later this year. Oh, by the way, Z big green board up above isn’t the drive. It’s actually the tiny 1 on top.
