All our results were achieved by running each test five times with every configuration this ensures that any glitches are removed from the results. Trim is confirmed as running by typing fsutil behavior query disabledeletenotify into the command line. A response of disabledeletenotify =0 confirms TRIM is active.
yay, the first of many ‘cut price’ 120gb drives. ill wait until they hit £99.99 inc vat 🙂
Don’t corsair do a drive at the same capacity and price (2281?)
Seems good value, especially with HDD prices, although im hoping a 1TB is back to £50 by February.
No stock as always 🙂 but seems good. any ideas when OCUK will have them?
Good deal, but as someone else said, ADATA are hard to get in UK, took them ages to stock the 510 after KG reviewed it.
They are dropping all the time as said on first page,. need to drop a bit more for me to buy one. maybe next year. next gen.
Never heard of them. ill stick with Samsung, got burned with OCZ last gen when it failed in 2 weeks. (huge threads all over on sandforce, no thanks)..
Typical ADATA product, cant buy it anywhere. all preorder or ‘not in stock’.
useless.
Please, review Crucial M4 64GB and 128Gb, they are the kings. 🙂
Don’t care about the winning part when I saw a 128GB SSD going for £50.00 on ebay thought no way but only a few mins later it was mine,was using a 64 GB which wasn’t cutting it.So you made my day thanks EDL Bratcher
COOL
Good price and vet good quality bought mine off ebay Brand new for £50.00 cool or what well appreciated .I will be back
