Bought and paid for by Intel (of course, it's from Tomsnospellcheckguide). It takes acts of God to include any sort of useful and cutting edge tech on any Intel mobo's. Apparently the P67 chipset doesn't even have native USB 3.0 support. Motherboards makers use other brands, like NEC.

yes the expected bull crap aside - I am looking at the performance read write times and:

SSD's are getting faster - This is what I been waiting for to help in lowering the cost of lesser performing ssd's.

Yeah I seen those awhile ago. Overpriced, but the bus they use isnt tapped into already by anything so thats a good point. Just really overpriced, moreso than a sata ssd.

The new corsair ssd's with this new performance is ~299.99 for a 128GB. so 8 more gigs and faster performance for ~60-70 bucks over the current ssd Corsair has.

A Revodrive X2 240GB for under 800$ (incl tax and shipping) is a way better idea at a way better price point (See: intel's 1000$ processors!).

> 700MB/s read and write.
