Until Marvell and SandForce released their first solid state drives Intel had a performance lead on all of their competitors. Unfortunately in our testing we found the 80GB Postville SSD lacked capacity and at the time the 160GB version cost subst...
The PCMark Vantage tests do a very good job showing the real world performance of solid state drives and in these we could really see just how much faster the new 120GB X25-M was compared to the 80GB model. For the most part Intel has caught up to t...

Aimed more at servers than gamers, Intels first foray into SSDs with the Intel X25-M is nevertheless about the most desirable performance component outside of a 4870x2. Nearly £500 for a mere 80GB is like removing a kidney in exchange for kissing Anne...

Intel’s X25-M sets the benchmark for storage. With its stupendous read speeds, games and apps will load much faster than before. It’s rather pricey, as are all SSDs, so the ‘M’ for mainstream in the name is wishful thinking on Intel’s part. However, 8...

Here it is, the new X25-M; the name sounds very much like an experimental hypersonic plane. And the analogy isn’t far off, since the new flash SSD provides excellent performance. Intel even titled one of its presentation slides “better by design,\" which is in fact true for all of the new flash SSDs.
