Had indeed all reviews of the outpost read and slight panic regarding speed and durability
Speed: 4Kern, 8GB Ram, MSI870-G45, SataII, Vista64bit, SataHD Samsung HD502HJ, 500GB, also very fast plate-> CrystalDiskMark: SEQ read:. 120 MB / s read, 120MB / s write
this Agilty 3 (60GB): SEQ read:. 195 MB / s read 95MB / s write (ie 50% + -20% Read write ..)
at random read 400% faster than Samsung HD ..
Feel:'m here already ne Ram Disks and run at 2GB, brings Lomography, the Agility 3 more mehr..man can the "power" of a SSD not only with read / write benchmarks bestimmen..es are the super good "response" in all applications and desktop "Work" -> the system is now absolutely top-butter-soft ..
recently had spoken again with NEM seller and I am also absolutely believe this Agility 3 SSD is really only ne Sata-2 is sold as Sata-3, doing the whole thing but absolutely no demolition !! ;-)
So as I said, when the disk first so after 2-3 hours "eingerödelt / integrated" into the system has everything runs super smooth .. (previously of course already)
Durability: I can at the moment absolutely nothing to say, but the hope it holds, toi, toi, toi, knock on wood, failure rates are actually after consultation with NEM seller ausm large computer shop with K .. starting ;-), almost 10-15% !! (Normal for HDDs is 0.5%) are ..
So as I said, super good for SATA2 bandwidth, would want to have SATA 3 Power right ne Vertex3 / 4 or ne Samsung M830 should rather (where there the write rates should be even worse) get ..
Conclusion: Super soft "system integration", is also to great extent on AHCI mode, much quieter and cooler and less workload in idle the whole system, super good response ..
for the price: absolutely a try .. ;-)
Addendum 25.02.2013:
got the SSD now for about exactly nen half Jahr..hatte virtually no failures (toi, toi, toi) but since yesterday increased constant freezes (had before ner week the board now replaced ne SB950 instead SB710) now .. on Firmware updated 2:25, no problem of nem other OS (Win7) from; again everything okay .. (. btw the SB 950/850 sees itself not as good with some Samsung Spin Points (in the BIOS is not recognized) -> Samsung firmware update to the rescue)
Addendum 07.15.2013:
So unfortunately now the Agility 3 is me but actually "smoked" after about a year, is only completely unexpected blue screen during operation, absolutely zero warning, no longer recognized by the BIOS during the re-boot, yet orange light then nothing more ..
Had fortunately only the front few days nen backup made-> was always treated with care and great thought indeed "my" Agility 3 does not fall off> denkste ;-)
But now nochmaln Thanks to the absolutely great Amazon service !! had thought to write something serving always with super Amazon and so, but I had brought the SSD on Sunday evening with super easy to print return paperwork and shipping labels to package and store had on Tuesday !!! the credit encouragingly account ..
Absolutely super Amazon service !!
Many Greetings
