OC3D have rounded up a batch of 240GB SATA 6GBs SSDs, the Intel 520, the Mushkin Chronos, the Corsair Force 3, and the Kingston Hyper X. The consistent size helps to highlight the difference a controller can make as there are several current generation SandForce controllers represented in the review. Reading through the review keep an eye out not only for the drives that provide the best performance in each test but also for the drives which provide the most consistent performance as some benchmarks will not represent the usage you would get from an SSD in your own system.
"As we bring a new benchmark to the OC3D suite of testing, we thought we’d give you a quick run through of some popular SSDs."

Allen I am in the process of getting my revodrive RMA’d (OCZSSDPX-1RVD0120). I was wondering if now with the updated sandforce controllers I would see I performance gain say a couple 60 gb vertex 3’s in raid0? It is out of my rig now is it going back in is the question. ..Tom i7-990X, GI Assassin X58, 12gb Corsair @1600MHz, 120GB Revodrive 2 300GB Velociraptors, 850 watt thermaltake 80+gold ….What do you think
