To my understanding, the controller inside that SSD was supposed to be a good one that used a different type of compression to the flash. Nevertheless, what do you think about the new Indilinx and Sandforce SSDs being made my OCZ?

I heard that the SF series, across the board, suffers from the trim effect on the SSDs overall memory. Indilinx was a reputable Korean company that ended up being bought and incorporated by OCZ.

I’m just curious as to what your sentiments are to the new SF controllers and if you think the new OCZ Indilinx SSD’s, IE the Arowana Series, are as good as the ones in the past.

I remember reading something about the SLC and MLC memory distribution of the SSD’s and how that plays a role. I would like to apologize for my ignorance ahead of time as I read the article a few months ago and don’t know this much about computers.

SITE RESPONSE: Indy/OCZ SSDs as in the Arowana have yet to be seen in the wild so comment cannot ber made, however, there is a great deal of success with OCZ and present SandForce SSDs. I wouldn’t be hesitant on this for a purchase in a second. Also, with respect to TRIM, this is secondary with SandForce controlled SSDs because of their excellent ITGC (Garbage Collection) abilities and Dyrawrite technology. A quick look at the success of the Revo series which does not use TRIM attests top that.
