ADATA XPG SX900


A data claims its XGP SX900 solid state drive is the most powerful SSD on the earth. This seems true after having tasted the fastest SSDs available the market. The SX900 belongs to Xtreme performance gear series of enthusiast class hardware and uses optimize firmware to efficiently utilize the NAND chips. Couple with a sandforce 2281 controller the SX900 can reach read and write speeds greater than 500 MB/s. This SSD is available in 64GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB capacities which gives you multiple option depending on your budget and application area. The package includes a 3.5 inch bay adapter.
          We received the review unit as soon as the SX900 was launched. After formatting you get 138 GB of usable storage space. The capacity is sufficient to comfortably store hundreds of movies and music albums or multiple games and application that require gigabytes of storage space.
          The only drive that came close to this one was the 240 GB SSD in Intel’s 520 series. The sequential read and write scores reported by ATTO Disk Benchmark and SiSoft Sandra 2012 indicates how fast the SX900 is. It was the only drive in the roundup that could write data faster than 500 MB/s. Think of a hefty 4 GB file getting transferred in under 5 seconds! With the highest scores in most benchmarks the drive scored a whooping 97 points out of 100. There is no other choice if you want a superfast PC.
