Corsair Performance Pro 129GB RAID 0 SSD

[Becky]

Pure Overclock have reviewed the Corsair Performance Pro 129GB RAID 0 solid state drive - here's a snippet:

Corsair's Performance Pro SSD is a 6Gb/s model with capacities of 128GB and 256GB. Performance is listed at 500MB/s read and 340MB/s write with 60,000 IOPS at 4k random write aligned disk access. And we've got the two of these for RAID 0 testing today.

The Corsair Performance Pro 128GB SSD contains an updated Marvell controller that continues to use a SATA 6G interface, able to take advantage of the insane speeds offered by the new standard. At 128GB capacity, these drives looks to be affordable and fast, satisfying the top performance that enthusiasts crave. Corsair is responding the enthusiast’s growing demand for a top tier drive that performs as well with incompressible data as it does with compressible data by offering the Performance Pro Series of drives. Two of these beasts in RAID 0 should be very impressive."

So tempted by those but bit pricey for a 256Gb drive. A pair of 128Gb's will cost £306.00 from Scan or £328.00 from OCUK. That's a lot of moolah for the performance increase. Still don't stop me drooling though
