extrememly good SSD June 15, 2010 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After getting one of these for my laptop 6 months ago, I just bought a second P128 as part of a new system I'm building. The drive in my laptop (Win 7, Trim enabled) is still extremely fast and my new PC runs very quickly too.
Newer and slightly faster SSD controllers (sandstorm) are now coming out, but we're talking slight incremental improvements - you'd probably not notice any difference in real-world use. So if you can get one of these Samsung controlled drives cheaper, I'd still recommend getting one, since they have all the key features: Trim support, self-healing, 128mb controller cache etc.
Laptop would not boot with this drive installed May 26, 2010 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I ordered this as a second drive for an Asus G73JH laptop. The computer came with one hard disk and an open bay for a second drive. I found the computer would not boot with the Corsair P128 installed. If the drive was removed from the computer and attached to a USB adapter, the computer had no problems reading or writing to the drive. As soon as it was reinstalled in the drive bay, the computer wouldn't boot, there was just a flashing cursor after the post. The BIOS saw and identified the drive but nothing I could do would allow the computer to boot with the drive installed, including swapping the drive between bays, making BIOS changes, removing the hard disk and having only the SSD installed, etc. After a couple of days of trying, I gave up and I returned the Corsair drive.
Amazon's return policy is awesome, no questions, they sent UPS to pick up the drive at their expense, and quickly refunded my credit card. I'll now buy about anything from Amazon any time.
Next I bought an Intel 160GB SSD through Amazon, actually an Amazon vendor, Nathan. Anyway, the Intel SSD arrived quickly, was installed easily, and functions perfectly with no problems at all. I don't know if the problem was just with the Corsair drive I got or whether it is a problem or incompatibility with my particular computer. Others with the same computer have had no problems so I suspect is was a single defective drive. This raises the question of their quality control or testing. If they tested each drive it seems they should have picked up the problem. If they don't, well, they should. I chose Corsair because they are in the memory business. Looking back, they're in the RAM business. These drives don't use RAM.
Before buying this Corsair drive, it would be worthwhile to go to Corsair's site and go to their SSD support forum. Next research the Intel drives. There just don't seem to be problems with the Intel drives. Based on my experience I'd skip the Corsair in favor of one of the Intel SSD drives.
If you think one is fast, try two ... May 21, 2010 Based on the other reviews here, I purchased two of these units and rigged them as a RAID-0 array in a Linux server. In a word: fast. Rock solid and error-free as well. I've had them running in this configuration for nearly a year now and haven't had even a single hiccup. The only limitation I can think of is that support for the TRIM command is somewhat limited in Linux installations. If you use this on a Windows 7 machine, you should have no trouble with that.
Awesome! March 2, 2010 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
End of story.. Finally fixed up the only bottle neck in my new Clocked i7-920 rig. A whole new beast. Wish I had more so I could throw a raid0 together...Anyone want buy me another?
These drives do not support the TRIM command January 20, 2010 4 out of 13 found this review helpful
I purchased three Corsair Performance SSD's from Amazon. Two P-128's and one P-256. Very expensive mistake. All three drives do not support the TRIM command, so they will decrease in performance over time, as I delete files or programs. There is a so called firmware update, but it is extremely complicated and involves entirely wiping the drive and there is 'no' guarantee the fix will work. You may end up with some very expensive paper weights. Buyer beware!
