The Sandforce SF-1200 controller has been getting a lot of attention lately and there are no shortages of SSD's featuring this high-performance controller although there has been quite a bit of confusion surrounding firmware versions as we have writ...
Bottom line If you had been thinking about picking up the Corsair Force 100GB SSD, the 120GB version should help make that purchasing decision a ton easier. With 20% more available storage, three year warranty, the same great performance and a price per GB ratio...

Bottom line Corsair's Force series SSD leaves a decent impression. The overall baseline performance is certainly fast, and when you look at very specific segments like Random I/O, especially in writes it's where the drive shines over controller solutions like Ind...

A standard hard drive uses a series of spinning disks to store memory. Since this kind of drive is motor-driven, the mechanical parts can and will wear down over time. A solid-state drive, like one from the Corsair Force series, has no moving parts, wh...

With the right workload, SandForce's SF-1200 storage controller has enormous potential. All three of the SF-1200-based drives we tested offer solid sequential throughput and very fast random access times across a range of transfer sizes. The SF-1200 proved particularly adept at handling random writes with larger transfer sizes, and...

These three new SandForce-1200 based models performed very well in our testing, competing with Intel in IOPS and completely dominating in write performance. The only thing really holding these drives back from total market domination is the price. That awesome write performance comes at the cost of heavy over-provisioning, which leads to less flash available for...

Bottom line Are you just as surprised as me to see the SF-1200 perform just as well as the enterprise SF-1500 when both are running MLC flash? SandForce and their partners have been pretty quiet about how the consumer drive performs. Generally when a company h...
