Sorry but, something is wrong. Ive seen other SSDs that copy files much bigger than that and do it a whole lot quicker than this. Something must be bottlenecking your system.
@byteusa The reason that most people don't run 4 drives in Raid0 is because the moment one breaks, you've lost everything. Honestly now, you should buy another drive, and run it in RAID to back up to one disk so you don't lose everything with a single fault. Speed isn't everything, and SSD's are in the early days.
@daand12 jeah but it cannot reach that value for 2000 1MB files. I'm using it for java programming and its the perfect hd for eclipse an its thousand of small (<1kb) files.
one thing to note, the x25-m's are indeed the highest performing drives in the entire ssd market atm, as reviewed by anandtech. the only flaw with the intel ssd's are their low sequential write speeds( even hdd velociraptors will beat the x25-m on a 2gb copy test).
this is made up for by unmatched random writes of small size, where no non-intel ssds on the market today can match, and no hdd on earth can even sniff.
I'm working as a java developer. I'm using eclipse which creates thousands of small files. Thats why i bought the drive, ssd's are unbeatable when it comes to small files.
Eclipse needed 10 Minutes for a startup before i changed the harddisk. Now even a Workspace with 1Gb needs only 30s to open. Also intensive virus checking doesn't slow down the notebook.
I was copiing on the same drive, a folder containing Files with 1MB per file. I use this HD to run eclipse on it, which has thousand of small files in the workspace, for this case its a lot faster than usual HDs. Compared with other 2,5" Notebook HDs it rocks.
Which also illuminates that usage is the primary concern when choosing computer and hardware. I myself solved it on my stationary that i have 3 separate mechanical disks. That way Windows & games doesn't get slowed down by downloads. And storage has it's own big, slow, cheap drive.
Is copyng from one drive to another faster? Cuz that seemed really slow to me and I have 7200RPM external drive that can copy at 60MB/s and you dropped to 45MB/s

That drive cost more than my past 3 computers combined.

My four 1TB Western Digital Black w/ 64MB cache drives in RAID0 are faster by about 25% and cost the same.

Slow my western digital scorpio hdd can reach 100mb/s a second then 30 40 mb/s

Hi, I have a m1330 too. This is a nice test but the result is disappointing to me. That is not fast enough for me to upgrade. It's not worth 350€.
What about other drives write speed? Theoretically they're faster but haven't seen any tests yet.

that ssd seems to be slow. what's the bandwith on it? i've seen faster ssd's on youtube. wazup with yours?

Nowadays i download 4-40 gb HD movie files.

Oh nvr mnd. I just use my external drive and copied a 5GB folder onto itself and it started at about 80MB/s then got as low as 33MB/s

1900 files each 1MB in various subfolders.
no way you drive will be faster. if it was one 2gb file, maybe

The write speed on the Intels arent as fast as other SSD's, but the read speed is higher for sure.

this is tremendous, I'm waiting for them to hit the $300.00 dollar spot to buy one.
