Intel did it again. They decided to go a different route than everyone else. Instead of using crap Asynchronous NAND like every other drive manufacturer to produce a cost effective drive they used a slightly lower binned Synchronous NAND along with fi...
Intel has the size and weight to throw it's muscle around and we are seeing that all too well. In less than a year we have seen SSD entries in every corner of the market to include today's 330 Series for the value minded, the 520 for the enthusiast, 710 ...
Highly underrated 4K random read and write speeds, Very competitive performance to price value, Same NAND as found in the Intel SSD 520, just fewer channels

Intel has pitched the 120GB 330 SSD into the most competitive SSD market segment – covering 120GB/128GB capacities. While there are cheaper SSDs in this price range, many will re-assured by the Intel badge on the device alone. That said, the warranty ...
Abstract: SSD prices are dropping so quickly that it makes more and more sense to have one in your PC. 120 or 128 GB versions you can find already for £90, and for less than twice that you can buy an SSD with double the capacity. It will still take a long time be...
