Corsair CSSD-F40GB2-A

was good for 3 months

died in 3 months

It was fast, before it died

When it died, just trying to access certain files (even from a USB adapter) would make the machine think it had been pulled out. Returned to Corsair, waited 2 weeks. Finally mailed them about where my replacement was. Got it three days later: it was a...

Does speed up the system. If you do not need to use the intel 10 series storage drivers, then you should be fine

I used this product with intel 10 series storage drivers. This was used as a ssd cache drive to speed up the system. I would get the blue screen of death (bsod) a couple of times a week. After taking this drive out of the setup the bsods stopped. This...

Drive is incredibly fast and thus far, reliable. Setup was super easy with Windows 7. No problems ; The online customer service representatives I dealt with were helpful, albeit vague and misinformed

OK, so the rebate was only for $10. I submitted it a day after receiving the SSD, and got a confirmation email about a week later: my rebate was supposedly being mailed out, and I should expect up to a month for delivery ; One month later, nothing....

Here is an update to my previous review. This is by far the fastest SATA II SSD I've used under 60gb. I'm using it with Linux Mint on the / partition and a Samsung 470 128gb for the /home partition. Now my system is much faster that it was with a a...

No mounting bracket included. The price came down after I bought it

Cheap, silent, fast (boots windows in 20 seconds) ; this DOES provide enough room for windows 7. I have win 7 ult 64bit running on it and I have 13GB left. Granted I only use this drive for the OS

Faster than the OCZ Vertex 2 40gb SSD. No problems with SMART errors, like other Sandforce controller SSD's. Works great without firmware upgrades. I've installed Ubuntu and Linux Mint with no problems at all

Kind of small capacity for a Windows 7, but plenty big for a Linux. Not a con for me, but it could be for others. That's why I gave it 4 eggs instead of 5

Fast, reliable and low power usage. Great for raid setups

none

Fast drives! Everything is very responsive on the CentOS 6.2 system ; The synthetic benchmarks for raid 0 on a hardware raid card were 450 MB/s ; I expected a little higher, but can't complain since that's average ; The price is reasonable in my...

Very Fast SSD ! At $84.99 it's a MUST upgrade for all Windows 7 power users

If you plan to install this 2.5" SSD in an available 3.5" bay, make sure to also purchase a bracket adapter because it's NOT included with the drive
