Corsair Force Series F100 100GB Solid State Drive Review

At CES every solid state drive manufacturer we met with was raving about the SandForce controller, the new controller that is going to bring blazing speeds to solid state drives and bring current solid state drives in the budget category with these new...

280MB/s read and 241MB/s write in ATTO ; Very high IOPS performance ; Available in large capacities (100/200GB) ; Two year warranty

Limited availability at this time ; Low scores in HD Tune Pro

Well at first I was really unsure on how to even give you my opinion on this drive. Some of the results from the tests were good, but others were quite low. After many days of research I found out a few things about some of our benchmarking...

Corsair Force Series F90 Solid State Drive

Corsair ducks under the 200 USD price point with a very fast SandForce SSD.

The biggest complaint about SSDs I read about in forums is their price. Every time I see someone pitching a fit about SSD prices and saying things like, "They are not worth it yet", I know I'm reading a post by someone who has never installed an SSD in...

Very fast boot and other hard drive operations. Cheaper than the extreme performance alternatives, easy to install, lightweight, etc.

Corsair Force Series F120 SSD

Corsair is a well-established designer of performance upgrade components for PCs, making its name with rugged power-supply units, system memory, and m...

Fast

Expensive cost per GB

We only tested 120GB Corsair SSD, although we were told that, unlike other SSDs, the company's SandForce controller technology helps the Force Series F120 to perform just as well as 256GB drives that elsewhere have greater scope for parallel write...

Corsair Force Series F120 review

Corsair is perhaps best known for producing performance computer memory, but the company also makes an impressive number of SSDs, one of which is the Force Series F120: a 120GB SSD based around the super-fast Sandforce memory controller.

Great performance at a reasonable price, the Force F120 is only just bettered by the cheaper OCZ Vertex 2E

Corsair Force Series F120 review

Corsair's Force Series F120 SSD uses a SandForce controller to deliver speedy access through clever page-management algorithms.

Corsair could only supply a 120GB sample for our review, although we were told that, unlike other SSDs, its SandForce controller technology helps the Force Series F120 to perform just as well as 256GB drives that elsewhere have greater scope for...

Corsair Force 90GB SSD Single & RAID Review

Note: After this review was published, Corsair clarified their firmware nomenclature with us and accordingly, the F90 seems to ship with the full

Good size for first time buyers ; Decent real world performance in most situations ; Corsair's reputation and warranty backstopping this drive is very reassuring

Too expensive when compared to the competition ; Can't compete on a level footing against some similarly-priced drives ; Thinner metal chassis compared to earlier Force models

With the SSD market expanding so quickly, it has extremely hard for manufacturers to stay ahead of the technology curve. Upcoming SF2000-bas
