    many thanks John… 🙂

    Now I can make a more informed decision about the use of faster data access using RAID to suit my needs as they change over time in repect of SVP.

    cheers

    I load all of my source material for the project I am working on at any given moment onto a PCI Express based SSD. I do not remember the random IOPS data, but my sustained read/writes are close to 1200Mbps. This is twice as fast as the best SATA based SSDs on the market.

    [Kell Hymer] “but my sustained read/writes are close to 1200Mbps……………”

    Now that is quick…. I’ve come across the plextor M.2 SSD’s which claim 770 read/write which outperforms the others like Samsung but not seen the likes of that speed you are quoting anywhere I’ve looked.

    Please…. link me up… I’m doing a stack of research at the moment trying to decide which mSATA I’ll go for in the 1st slot available (and I have 2 x M.2 slots with the chassis I’m looking to populate so I’m almost spoilt for options)

    1200Mbps is surely as fast as I’d imagined I would want from a RAID set-up but why would I bother if it can be obtained thru a PCI-e slot.

    Is this what you’re talking about…? https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/samsung-xp941-z97-pci-express,3826-5.html

    Here are a couple of links. They advertise the drives as “An easy to deploy, single-card alternative to RAID”.

    I have the 480GB model but it is a number of years old now and these new drives are MUCH faster. Crap…now that I see these new models, I want a new one! It is certainly not the cheapest option but it is wicked fast and stable beyond belief. I transferred over 8GBs from a USB 3.0 flash drive to my OCZ drive and it took a matter of seconds. Note that it will add a few seconds to your post as the disc is initialized at startup. I doubt you are too worried about that though. Some PC guys take pride in how fast their system boots. I don’t really care about boot times; working speeds are what I care about.

    Samsung had to come up with this to remain king…. 2150mbps… that is super lightning fast… if they keep going I envisage that a tele-porter is on the cards… 🙂

    That’s brilliant.. Vegas in Vegas… 🙂

    So… I’ve emailed Eurocom to ask about one of their P5’s with the new Samsung kit and how much fruit my money tree would need to bear in order to get my hands on one…. if only for curiosities sake.
