  • Abstract:  Многие производители, которые сегодня собирают SSD , используя контроллеры SandForce, в "прошлой жизни" производили системную память. Естественно, все они пытались выйти за границы возможного, поскольку хотели выделиться из массы других производителей DRA...

  • Гилберт утверждает, что сейчас уже можно без боязни покупать основанные на SF-2281 устройства, в том числе и Intel 520-й серии. Кстати о них - продукт у Intel получился с достойной "начинкой", но далеко не самым быстрым среди коллег по контроллеру. Возмож...

  • Высокая средняя эксплуатационная скорость, Очень малое время доступа к данным, Гарантийный срок до 5 лет, Поддержка функций NCQ и Trim
  • Относительно высокая стоимость;
  • В качестве итога по проведенным исследованиям можно сказать, что твердотельный накопитель Intel SSD 520 Series объемом 240 ГБ отлично подойдет для высокопроизводительных современных платформ, например основанных на системной логике Intel X79 Express, в ко...

  • Abstract:  Serien 520 är baserad på kontrollkretsen Sandforce och här skall vi se hur Intel klarar sig mot konkurrenterna. Tidigare har vi exempelvis testat OCZ Vertex 3 240 GB. För bästa prestanda med ssd-diskar skall man använda AHCI-inställningen i moderkort...

  • Mycket bra prestanda vid slumpmässig skriv och läs, Snabbare än konkurrenterna med samma komponenter, 5 års garanti, Bra tillbehör,
  • Initialt dyrare än konkurrenterna, Tappar prestanda vid skrivning av komprimerad data

  • Intel 520 SSD ligger helt i toppsjiktet og leverer ytelse som ikke står tilbake for konkurrentene.Men Intel leverer heller ikke noe særlig mer, siden de faktisk bruker komponenter og teknologi som også er tilgjengelig for alle andre produsenter.Forskjelle...

  • Abstract:  Intel SSD 520 er en SSD som man nok vil kunne se levert i mange pc-er rettet mot bedriftssegmentet. Og får man en pc levert med denne SSD-en skal man være svært fornøyd. Kingston KC100 ligger marginalt bak ytelsesmessig – egentlig er det uten praktisk ...
