ADATA S510 120GB SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Drive - Retail with Acronis True Image ** PRE-ORDER PRICE ** @ £119.99 inc VAT

HD-015-AD_400.jpg


The S510 is a highly cost-effective option for SSD upgrades of existing systems, and for new SATA 6Gb/s enabled computers. The S510 utilizes the new generation SandForce SF-2200 series controller, with native support for the SATA 6Gb/s platform. In both desktop and notebook computers, users will enjoy an unprecedented high-speed experience. The S510 can reach 550/510MB read and write speeds respectively, with 4K random write speeds as high as 85,000 IOPS.


Superior to Mechanical Drives on all Fronts

Solid state drives require no defragmentation, and support the Windows TRIM command. The S510 provides vibration-free running and low power consumption, while taking full advantage of the 6Gb bandwidth transmission capability.


What is the Windows TRIM command optimizing component?

If your computer is running the Windows 7 operating system, the Windows TRIM optimization command can directly delete stored data in the Flash memory and release unused space (Free Blocks) to be used for system writes immediately. This results in more accelerated transfer and write performance for solid state drives, and is also effective in slowing down efficiency decline and depletion chances, maintaining effective operation and extending the life of the disk.


Powerful and Free Software Solution to Eliminate Reinstalls

All purchasers of the S510 can download the free Disk Migration Utility software. It facilitates the quick transfer of all files to the new solid state drive, significantly reducing the troublesome and time-consuming process of reinstalling software and restoring data from backups.

* Disk Migration Utility software runs on these operating systems: Windows XP / Windows Vista / Windows 7

ADATA S511 120GB SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Drive - Retail with Acronis True Image ** PRE-ORDER PRICE ** @ £158.99 inc VAT

The S511 utilizes the new generation SandForce SF-2200 series controller, with native support for the SATA 6Gb/s platform. The S511 completely brings into play the revolutionary high-speed performance of solid state drives, embracing a new world of transfer performance. With read and write speeds twice that of SSDs using the older SATA II specification, the S511 reached 550/520MB read and write speeds respectively, with 4K random write speeds as high as 85,000 IOPS in real world testing. This means transferring a 5GB video file can be completed in as few as 15 seconds. In actual testing of Windows 7 boot speed, the S511 clocked an impressive 21 second system boot time, giving full satisfaction to the performance needs of power users.


High-speed read and write performance enhances computing efficiency

Currently, the major processor platforms are gradually making the changeover to native SATA 6Gb/s chips. However, traditional mechanical drives are not capable of the corresponding high-speed read and write tasks. The result is that some newly-purchased computers can only utilize a fraction of the performance available when equipped with a traditional hard drive. The S511 solid state drive provides vibration-free running and low power consumption while taking full advantage of the 6Gb bandwidth transmission capability. In both desktop and laptop computers, and in a broad range of computing environments, SSDs built to the latest specification an irreplaceable advantage.



Solid state drives are the best choice when buying a new computer


With the increasing popularity of computing with the use of more diverse applications, computational speed has become a major consideration when buying computers. In video editing, large picture retouching, and computer drafting, reading and writing operations rely on fast and stable data storage.

The S511 adopts specially selected Flash chips from reliable manufacturers, and supports the Windows TRIM command. In both desktop and notebook computers, users will enjoy an unprecedented high-speed experience.

Wow what a price. How long will these be at this price? tempted to upgrade my 60gb to a 120!

The 7th :P Its in the post :P


Ok think I am going have to bite for another SSD for my system, one dedicate 128GB should be enough for me for games (Although SWTOR is at about 20GB from the beta download already :( :P) But i heard the SF controllers are not as good as others?

Christmas present to myself I think :D
 
Acronis is a great addition and makes transferring your data to the SSD in the first place a doddle.

bonus of it is that acronis carries on working afterwards giving you backup options beyond any other software.

the Adata drives look superb value for money too
 
how do these compare to the crucial M4?

The S510 is esentially a force 3 (take that as you will) ;) so its very quick but out done in a few situations.

Would you be able to get some Benchmarks? Or does that break the NDA?

Top SSD cheaper than £1/GB

Less than £1per GB and benchmarks will arrive soon enough :)
 
Very tempting, but my steam folder wont fit onto one :(

I currently have a 64 Gb C300 for windows, and one more Sata 6gb port and SSD space. So I suppose I could fit one in, but my Raid 0 F3s are brilliant enough for games.

So should I get the £119 one?
 
Cant do raid on the RIIIEs sata 6gb ports, but I could on the sata 3 gb ports.

But I already threw all my money away on an I7 980 :(
 
steam mover,

I have an Intel 510 120GB SSD for games which I split between a Samsung F3 1TB drive in a USB3.0 caddy.

for games I rarely play, the speed of the samsung drive is fine, but i just transfer a game across to the ssd if needed. it would work fine on any ssd :)
 
Ok so if I grab one of these as my second Sata III drive, moving individual steam games to it will be simple? I know that some of them dont work if you just copy paste.

No need to get carried away with buying two of them - a 64 Gb C300 for Windows plus this for frequently played games should be perfect to fill both my sata III ports :)
