    The G1 + engineering sample combination sounds really bad to me too

    Besides that - do Intel manufactured SSDs sold by other resellers get the same service - a la Intel Toolbox?

    Didn't Kingston whined a few weeks back that their 40gb-Intel-manufactured-SSDs don't get the same TRIM features?

    hi guys, using intel x25m 160gb and been happy with its performance, thinking to upgrade to c300 256gb, is it recommended?

    im interested with c300 due that it has bigger gb and faster read and write.

    Both Techreport and Hardware heaven have published good reviews of Crucial C300.

    Although I think you could better wait for Intel G3.
