Super awesome SSD?!

[Patriks7]

I was just looking at Newegg, and found a new 256GB SSD.

Anybody used it yet? Anyone have any experience with the brand?
It has really great read/write speeds for the price.

So I guess it's not a good brand if no one wants to even answer?

I'm guessing no one bothered to answer because all you left was a link. Most people don't want yet another window/tab to deal with.

As i'm a nice sort, i went and had a look. Never heard of them. Might be a rebranded sandisk but as far as i can see i can't tell.

I'd wait for Intel to step into this market and start pushing it's X25's, you'll start to see prices come down for these around mid 2009, that should be the tipping point for anyone wanting the balance of price/quality.

cheers

Ah sorry. Next time I'll provide more info (still kinda new here).
Well from what I read, Intel only plans to release a 320GB this year, so I can't really see them pushing much. Hopefully I'm wrong. Maybe soon WD and all those guys will switch part of their department to SSDs.
