Intel's 'Cherryville' 520 Series SSDs are here, packing heat with SandForce SF-2281 controllers and custom firmware. We received a pair of 240GB drives to throw on our test bench and report our findings. With nearly a year to develop the firmware, will the 520 Series become the new gold standard for SSDs or just another drive in the SandForce pile? Read on to see.
Well I guess the secrets out by now. Intel has this morning officially released it’s new enthusiast level Intel 520 Series SSD and it is none other than ‘SandForce Driven’. What’s that, you say!?
Our report today is a complete analysis of the Intel 520 240GB 6Gbps SSD and I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that this is only a prelude to the big event. As luck may have it, Intel has sent us three (3) Series 520 SSDs to do what only we can truly do for the drives. Get ready for some amazing RAID testing!
SandForce is back in town and it's here to stay. Intel's 520 Series is a full replacement for the 510 Series, but utilize the SF-2281 controller and custom Intel firmware to deliver one of the best SSDs we seen to date. If you already want an Intel SSD but don’t know which to get, we can answer that. Oh, and did we mention the 5 year warranty?
For the past several years, consumers searching through the available selection of Solid State Drive (SSD) storage devices have noticed that capacity continues to favor the hard disk drive counterpart. While it could be a few more years before any SSD matches terabyte capacity with the HDD, Intel's NAND Flash produced at 20nm is closing that gap in terms of price and storage space. In this article, Benchmark Reviews tests the Intel SSD 520 Series Solid State Drive against the leading competition to see if it's capable of delivering SATA 6GB/s speeds up to 550 MB/s and 80,000 maximum 4K random write IOPS.
Mit der SSD 520 Series verzichtet Intel abermals auf einen eigenen Controller, setzt aber erstmals auf einen Flash-Prozessor von SandForce. Da diese bisher nicht unbedingt für ihre Zuverlässigkeit bekannt sind, sollen eine eigene Firmware und intensive Tests für eine hohe Leistung und Zuverlässigkeit sorgen. Wir haben uns die Leistung von „Cherryville“ angesehen.
Intel are today releasing the new 520 series based on SandForce technology. Today we have one of those new drives on our test bench and will be comparing it in real world and synthetic tests against drives based on the latest Sandforce, Indilinx, Marvell and Samsung controllers.
Today we are looking at the latest Solid State Drive from Intel - the 520 series, codenamed 'Cherryville'. The drive is built around 'compute quality' 25 nanometer NAND flash memory and offers a claimed maximum sequential read speed of 550 MB/s.
Intel sévit maintenant depuis pas mal de temps sur le marché des SSD, en proposant assez souvent de bons produits. Le dernier SSD en provenance de la marque que nous avions testé était le 510, avec son contrôleur Marvell. Aujourd'hui, nous nous penchons sur le modèle 520, dans sa déclinaison 120 Go, un SSD qui exploite un contrôleur qui, ni plus ni moins, arrive de chez SandForce.
There are a vast number of SATA-600 solid state drives on the market at the moment, so there have never been more choices for the people who want to give their system a performance boost. Today we are going to look at the latest SSD from Intel, the 520 Series 240 GB, which is designed with performance users in mind.
Intels eben vorgestellte SSD-Generation hört auf den Codenamen "Cherryville" und basiert auf einem SF-2281-Controller aus dem Hause SandForce. Dieser, vom Hersteller erstmals eingesetzte SSD-Prozessor, verhilft dem neuen Flash-Datenträger zu einer gesteigerten Performance im Vergleich zum SSD-510-Vorgänger. Zusätzlich implementiert Intel interessanten Features, wie eine 256-bit-AES-Verschlüsselung, Datenkompression und eine "End-to-End Protection". Wie sich der Neuling gegen die starke Konkurrenz schlägt, wird folgender Test zeigen.
