I think I'll never understand the hatred of green PCBs. Looks like a PCB, is a PCB, looks fine

Hmmm , so glad OCUK sell Plastidip

But they fail to stock enough of what customers REALLY want which is why Black and only Black is sold out

For those that are interested, I got one of these and installed it natively onto my Asus Impact which has a M.2 connector on it which means I removed it from the PCI-E adapter (Yes I know I voided the warranty!)

It works fine and the BIOS was showing it up as a boot option - I've not configured it as such but may play with it, but you still get the BIOS setup after the mobo BIOS - which I assumed was on the adapter, but the 'controller' must be embedded which is cool.

Time for SSD's to drop price lol

Will OCuk be stocking the one without PCI-E adapter because I wanna use this with an Asus Impact.

Thanks!

They should have gave them a small casing and made it look good, people would be more likely to snap them up then

So when this new mainboard interface comes out, does it mean I would have to buy a newer type of SSD that supports it, or would speed increases be seen in older SSDs too? Just wondering as I was tempted to buy a 1TB SSD in a few days but if I am better off waiting for a new breed of them I probably should.

That's pretty competitive pricing for bleeding edge tech!

It's not bleeding edge tech, I've got several Revodrives that over 3 years old now. The latest one does 1500mb/s read and about 1300mb/s write so these are nothing new and nothing special IMO.

Green PCB? All the Revodrives are black, what were they thinking?!
