Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Corsair SATA II 3.0Gb/s 128 GB Performance Series Internal Solid State Drive (CMFSSD-128GBG2D)Customer Review: Really great on installation and boot-up. Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, I'm really amazed by the speed of this drive right out of the box. It took nearly 15 or so minutes to install Win 7 from beginning to end, first off, and installing all the drivers and internet security necessities was like lightning flash, didn't even see the installation bar for that long on most of the component drivers. Just a shame that Samsung controllers don't support TRIM, but since I'm really using this for the OS drive, and probably for Steam, I really don't see any issue with not using TRIM at this point. Overall, it's certainly a significant performance over the 500GB Caviar that this replaced, even tho I'm still holding on to my 640GB WD Caviar Black for other apps that don't require the speed/performance boost that this SSD will provide.
As always, with an experimental technology like this, I will be updating through reviews on how this progresses along during this PC's lifespan. Here's the rest of my PC specs in case you're interested:
Antec 900 Steel ATX Case
Corsair HX620W Modular PSU
Gigabyte GA-MA790GPT-UD3H AM3 790GX Motherboard
AMD Phenom II x4 955 Black Edition 3.2GHz Quad-Core
Sapphire ATI Radeon 1GB GDDR5 HD5850
8GB DDR3-1600 (6GB Patriot Viper + 2GB Mushkin Blackline)
LG 8x Blu-ray Burner (BH08)
Hauppauge HVR-1800 TV Tuner
D-Link Wireless-N Draft Adapter
This Corsair P128 SSD in an Icy Dock Converter
WD Caviar Black 640GB
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
I'm still gonna have to run all sorts of benchmarks on this, but Windows Performance Index gave my SSD a rating of 7.3, which is fantastic, and overall WPI rating is 7.2.
Great gaming system, if I do say so myself. Can't wait to put Steam on this, and see what type of gaming performance/load times this gives off.
