Surprise! The new generation of Intel SSD that the world was waiting to give a headache to productions SandForce controller actually use a brain Marvell. For better or for worse? There is still a bit early to say, the launch of Intel SSD 510 Series is a bit rushed: the products were sent Friday and we have not received any copy of the test.
Our colleagues Hardware. com and PcInpact were lucky that allowed them to make this discovery: the controller 510 is not manufactured by Intel. This is a Marvell chip-88SS9174 BKK2, an evolution of the Comptroller of Crucial SSD C300. According to preliminary quick tests of our brothers, the 510 show a performance profile similar to C300: excellent in sequential transfers (where the 250 GB model by Intel reaches 500 MB / s read and 315 MB / s write), the trolling random access (where they are overtaken by Intel's X25-M).
The 510 is also curious in that they still embark memory etched into 34 nm which is caused to disappear faster production lines. The performance of these SSDs will be reassessed when passing memory in 25 nm. Meanwhile, they still accord quite well with your motherboard brand new feature of SATA 6 Gb / s.
In terms of price, count $ 284 for 120GB and $ 584 for 250 GB
