5.0 out of 5 stars Impressed, No regrets, July 24, 2012
This review is from: Corsair Force Series GS 240GB SATA III/6G SATA 6.0 Gb-s 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive, Red (CSSD-F240GBGS-BK) (Personal Computers)
First time ever using a SSD for anything and I have to say the Corsair Force GS has made a good impression thus far. I'm currently using it as the boot drive and the time for it to start up is amazingly fast. Also all the programs I have installed (including Windows itself) have been at a much quicker rate than I had expected. So I decided to benchmark the SSD to see what read/write speeds it could achieve.

Note: I am using the ASRock z77 Extreme 4 mobo and an Intel i5-2500k Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz CPU. The SSD is plugged into the SATA3 Intel Controller at 6gb/s.

Using the exact same benchmarking program as Corsair, ATTO Disk Benchmark, and the same parameters that they used, I was able to achieve ~557Mb/s for Read and ~532Mb/s Write.

Upgraded from a Crucial C300 128gb drive. This is noticeably faster, though I am not sure if that is just the product of having to do a fresh installation of Windows. Regardless, this drive is great and I would highly recommend it.

awesome delivery time from Amazon aside, the drive is very good - the size is just right to replace previous 320Gb 7200 HDD in my laptop. Speed improvement is 2x-5x - laptop is like new again. Price is very reasonable too and it works with Mac Book Pro from 2010.
