ok, so the Indilinx controller includes sata support, so then they have to use a sata to pata bridge chip... I imagine that would increase power consumption and decrease compatibility.

the OCZ Apex SSD is more or less the same design and the Photofast V2 drive, and from looking at benchmarks if the partition is aligned correctly it seems to have about as good performance has the Samsung SSD in my 2510p now...so maybe it is an option after all.
