How does this one compare to my vertex 4 256 gb?

I have a Vertex 4 128GB, and the Vector 256GB is hands-down faster. My windows boot dropped by about 5 seconds when I swapped out the Vertex and in my Vector (and it was already only 30 seconds before).

It is pretty quick and solid not a huge difference from the Vertex but it seems faster to me so far. I haven't ran any benchmarks or anything yet, I just wanted to try the latest and greatest.

actually to be honest the v4 is the newer one xD ive been following SSDs before the m4 and the kinda retarded price comes supposedly from the technology that was developed especially for older computers. so the m4 doesnt have many features the v4 does and for some reason they thought that lowering the speed will make it more stable in older computers

I'm running an HD4000 in my MBA also w/ 8GB RAM, and it does, in fact, support 2560x1600. I don't do any gaming, strictly just Office suite products, and average Internet surfing/browsing including the occasional video. The U3011 is perfect for my setup and needs.

Peter, what brand/model/spec were the 2X2 GB? I'd like to upgrade mine also to 4 GB.

I have not had any problems with the 32 gb so far! It holds more data than the 16 gb. Not sure if anyone else has any problems.

Nir, you may want to implement some of the Windows tweaks outlined at http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43460 which applies to the technology generally regardless of brand. I am still awaiting delivery of my OCZ SSD (Vertex 30gb) so I have not tried any of those alternate settings yet, but I intend to!

1GB effect as SLI does not double the usable memory (has to mirror between both GPUs data wise) and it is the 256bit. As for tested or working just ask the seller and if ripped file a claim.

im currently using one with 750gb. So far so good. as long as its 2.5in SATA HDD should be fine.

Tested? I don't know. I did order it based on comments in another thread. The netbook has shipped. I haven't received a shipping confirmation on the memory yet. There are comments elsewhere on Amazon about people using the faster memory without any trouble. I am more likely to leave comments in these discussion threads than write a review after I've used the netbook some.

I have the 256 model, same drive. I use it as a bootable backup drive. It works. It's a little sluggish compared to a firewire connection.

Thanks for the response...the first 2GB i received from Amazon actually seemed to slow DOWN my netbook...esp noticeable after i replaced it with the 1GB to see if the hanging shutdown would go away (which it did)...so my question to you is...do you notice ANY enhanced performance from the 800 mHz 2GB install?

The 5400rpm Best Buy's (NP700Z5B-W01UB) model HDD was a deal breaker for me. Besides Amazon's tax savings offset the price difference, so you get all 4 additional features (7200 HDD, 8G SSD, backlit keyboard, better video) for about $100 considering shipping and the current $150-$200 price difference. However the mention of the 5400rpm drive in S03 (and I'm sure S04) models made me think again. It's gotta be some difference with S01/S02 and the drive seems to be it. Another thing that one reviewer (of the S04) confirmed is that the 8G SSD is indeed proprietary tech (built into and inseparable from the HDD) and thus unavailable as a separate drive letter. I use Linux as my primary OS, so I don't care about Windows startup or IE speed. I don't think Linux would pick up the SSD at all. Which makes me go back to the stripped down Best Buy model. I'd simply swap its slow HDD with a full-size (256G+) SSD which can be had for $300 nowadays. I can live w/o the backlit keyboard and as far as the less capable video card, it's a business notebook, not a water-cooled gaming rig anyway.

The 128GB is slower than the 256GB+ due to the way the controllers store the data. Basically the controllers write to multiple memory modules simultaneously and the 128GB model has fewer of them so it is somewhat slower. the Samsung Evo is probably a better bet if you are looking at the 128GB model as it is only a little more expensive and much faster (though still not quite as fast as the 256gb Pro).

Hi Marcus, As stated in our description, this model is the 256mb version. We also carry the 1gb model as well.

Yes, I did. My 27" dual core gave me video problems, Apple allowed me to upgrade to the i5 quad core. I moved the Crucial chips to the new system. It also was a bit flaky but I traced it to a QuickTime problem. I ran the extended hardware diagnostics (1 hour memory test) the Crucial as well as OEM chips scored perfect. My problems were unrelated to the memory, it works fine. These problems were more "version 1.0" issues. It did give me a chance to sample Apple's customer service, and the experience was outstanding, exceeding all expectations.

The only difference is 500GB of non SD - extra storage and 16GB of exrra RAM. The Qosmio's are known to over heat and my ASUS (so far) hasn't overheated after 8 hours of continuous game play. The system runs quiet too. Despite the the fact it's pretty heavy (though not too heavy), the laptop is a solid choice. Also, the Nvidia 880M (4GB) is a very very good card and you can't go wrong with that. I would have to look at the screen definition. However my ROG is HD and I assume the Samsung is too. Good luck with your purchase!

the one i bought came with 2 128GB SSD, they probably just typed it wrong. the OS could even fight on 256MB
