I just got my computer set back up with my first SSD. Holy moly I didn't know what I was missing! SSD + SATA III = retarded crazy fast.
Boot to desktop with all startup programs loaded in 16 seconds, I don't even see a cottonpickin' Welcome screen haha.
Anyhow, this drive is definitely living up to my expectations.
After benchmarking she shows great 4k-16k read/write speeds which makes Windows absolutely blazing fast.
Sequential transfer speeds are amazing as well. The drive is actually reading faster sequential than specced. It's reading @ a max of 567mb/s and it's specced @ 520mb/s. The drive is just barely coming up short on quoted sequential write speeds. Actual benchmarked write speed is 460mb/s and is rated by Patriot @ a max 490mb/s but I'm not complaining as it's made up where it counts for me, in the read department!
I got this drive for $94.99 shipped from Newegg. I highly highly highly recommend it. I don't think it can be beat for this price range of drives!
