Its been 3 months, the Samsung Pro can be had for 100.00USD less than the Vector in the 512gb flavor. No contest Samsung every time. If both prices were equal, I would probably have a harder time deciding.

In reply to Daniel Watkins. Pretty much any SATA III spec'd SSD will saturate the SATA II bus. Real world performance will float around 230MB/s . If you're on a SATA II limited system, you can either save $ by buying a lower end SSD like an Agility 3 or know that with a 5 year warranty this SSD will be waiting with a performance jump when migrated to a newer system.

How good is the IOPs with SATA 3Gb/s? That would be good to know for people that have older laptops and want to buy the Vector for their old laptop but want to eventually upgrade their laptops.

In reply to Les@TheSSDReview. Hi Les! Just bought two of those for RAID0! I'm in love with this SSDs ehe but I'm having a little problem. The write-back cache on IRST can't be enabled =( Do you have any ideas to help me to enable that? The IRST version is 11.7.0.1013. One more thing: can I enable the TRIM function with this version of IRST? (if yes, how can I do that?)Thanks a lot!
