The new Intel X25-M G2 revision SSD is stupid-fast, and even more so when you connect 2 of them together in RAID 0. Paul and Jeremy got their hands on two of the 80GB G2s this past weekend, and were able to crank out some impressive benchmarking numbers.

  • OK, but you should mention that the TRIM command/feature is not available to a SSD RAID configuration. So over time the array's performance will decline RAPIDLY :(

  • OMG bad video!

  • if you think that was impressive try using one from crucial.com

  • first comment it 7months:P

  • After looking on newegg and this video,I decided to purchase this SSD for my first build during this week.

  • @brokeandbloging Did you notice that my original comment was made 5 months ago? Was TRIM available then? - no! So, to repeat myself, since intel made TRIM available on their boards, other manufacturers have been playing catch-up. If you have Samsung PM800 SSD's with your M17x, yes, you are in luck. And far be it from me to argue to with Dell tech support...

    My point remains that when this vid was made, it was not available AT ALL, and yes, now - 5 months later it's available elsewhere.

  • @2000jago i ben runing fine for all most 4 month now alienware m17x r nov 5 1010 model so i have trim suport

    dell tec conferm i have trim enable

  • @brokeandbloging Google it. TRIM under RAID is only (recently) available to intel boards... others still playing catch-up. Just because you're running RAID with SSD's running "fine" (stripes or otherwise) doesn't automatically mean you have TRIM...

  • @2000jago nope works im ona m17x r2 with two samsung ssd iin stripe

  • I notice you can watch this video in 710p HD quality...

    ...but why would you want to?

    (Drunk cameraman aside, good review guys!)
