Hi, am I right in thinking that the next gen SSD's to be released are

Crucial C400
Vertex 3
Intel G3

Is there a rough release date for these yet?
And are there anymore SSD's to consider?

:)
 
Hi there

OcUK will be first on Vertex3 and we've secured the most stock, ETA 3-4 weeks, pre-order available. :D

Intel Elmcrest, I have in stock now, but can't launch/sell yet, waiting on Intel.

Crucial 400, about 2-3 weeks. :)

120GB Intel ElmCrest 2.5" SSD, MLC-Flash, 450MB/s Read and 210MB/s Write speed

Up to 450MB/s Read; 315MB/s Write (128K Seq, 8GB span, QD=32)
Up to 20,000 4K Rand Read; 5,000 4K Rand Write (8GB span, QD=32)

(Write speed probably higher on higher capacity drives)

Out on Tuesday, possibly.

Somewhat slower than the Vertex 3 listed for pre-order.

Intel tend to go for reliability over outright speed, something which I would happily take the performance hit for (after all, the Intel drives are certainly no slouch). :)
 
The Vertex 3 is unbelievable!

Completely puts the C400 and other upcoming SSDs to shame.

OCZ found an area to completely excel and pwn everyone else in it seems :p
 
i myself im thinking going SSD.. ill wait to see wot other who buy them have to say before i jump on the wagon...
