Отзывы о Твердотельный накопитель Intel D3-S4610 (SSDSC2KG240G801)

Just a few weeks ago I had a hard drive crash for the second time within two months. I wanted something better but I found that I didn't need 500 GB at all. Since my hard drive was the bottleneck of my gaming PC in the first place, I decided to spend the extra money and buy a Solid-State Drive.Boy am I glad I did. This thing is fast. Every program seems to load in under a few seconds with super-responsiveness. Tasks like installing programs and copying files are near-instantaneous.It's 2013 and you're still spinning at 5400 or 7200 RPM? You're waiting for what seems like minutes for Photoshop to load? Get with the times. Get an SSD.

Three year old Dual core Windows 7 computer. About the time I normally buy a new computer. Happy I put this solid state drive in rather then spend on a new computer. Boot time is about 30 seconds now. Civ 5 runs a good deal quicker which I did not expect. A Windows update flashed by the screen in about 5 seconds. Don't need the drive space so I unplugged my old hard drive to save energy... quieter also. My security cameras also come on quicker... used to be my cat set them off but I seldom got a look at her... now there she is going about her kitty business. Computer also snaps awake when I jiggle the mouse. Delighted!

I had some trepidations about the reliability of SSDs prior to this purchase. I have seen more than few stories of SSDs going south within the first few boots all the way up through the first few months or the first year. I like OCZ and a lot of the other companies for things like graphics cards and the like, but I couldn't go into an SSD purchase knowing I would be fighting an RMA process all too soon. Of course, this is in addition to potential data loss and the loss of my time (and gain of downtime and aggravation) in getting everything set up again. With all these considerations in mind, I decided to go with this Intel drive as being reliable and fast. I don't care if it is 5% slower than an OCZ drive or a little more expensive, as I wanted an SSD speed boost without the aforementioned headaches (or at least a minimal chance of them).My laptop is a Dell XPS laptop circa 2011 with SATA Gen. 3 connectivity. Installation was pretty straightforward, and nothing really of interest happened. After Windows was installed, I entered ludicrous speed. As most of the other reviews you have undoubtedly read indicate, it is ridiculously fast. I used AS SSD Benchmark and got a Total Score of 520. I haven't really determined whether this is on par with what others are getting, but real world performance has been impressive either way.After using it a few weeks, it oddly feels like how computers are supposed to work. Reliability has held up so far, though it would be impossible to predict how long it will last. Overall, a great purchase thus far, especially with the confidence of the longer/Intel-backed warranty.

I installed this 300GB Intel 320 Series Solid State Drive in my 13" MacBook Pro (mid-2009; 2.53 GHz). The SSD is working wonderfully so far, after about 2 weeks of use. In 2009, I tried my luck with an OCZ "Mac Certified" Vertex drive, only to find it bricked about 2 months later, so I was hesitant to try another SSD in the same MacBook Pro. (The 13" mid-2009 models are notorious for problems with the SATA interface, so much so that OCZ does not list the 13" model among "approved" Macs.) Not wanting to deal with the hassle of swapping out another dead SSD, I decided to sacrifice a bit of performance in exchange for the reliability of an Intel SSD, with an Intel (rather than SandForce) controller. Of all the drives out there, the Intel drives appear to be the most frequently cited as being compatible with the older MacBook Pros, including the 13" model.Performance after install is great! It seems a little faster than the OCZ Vertex. I had forgotten how much faster boot up and application launch are with an SSD. Microsoft Word 2011 loads in less than 3 seconds. Going back to HD speeds seems unlikely now. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I won't have a repeat of my first SSD failure. I also feel confident that TRIM will be enabled for non-Apple-branded SSDs soon after the release of Lion. I am using the developer release of Lion with the Intel drive right now, so I can assure you that Lion at present does not enable TRIM for the Intel drive. It's clearly part of the OS, but Apple has disabled it for all but factory-installed SSDs. There is a hack available, but I'lll give Apple some more time before resorting to the hack.NOTE: Physical installation was a breeze, but cloning the HD to the SSD was not. I was unable to clone my internal HD to the Intel SSD using the SATA to USB cable provided, or any other method. I tried SuperDuper! and Apple's Disk Utility (using the "restore" feature), but in both instances the cloning did not work. SuperDuper! indicated it was finished, but obviously was not. Smart updates run in succession always wrote additional files. After comparing notes with another MacBook Pro user who had installed an OWC SSD the same week, we determined that the problem likely has more to do with the MacBook Pro than with Intel or OWC. (He was unable to clone his HD to the SSD, either, and he's more tech-savvy than I.) Ultimately, I had to resort to installing the SSD (after formatting the SSD to use HFS+ and a GUID partition scheme -- the latter being essential), then reinstalling Snow Leopard using the install disk that came with my MacBook Pro (selecting the "restore" option), in conjunction with my TimeMachine backup. Fortunately, the speed of the SSD allowed me to complete the restore in less than 3 hours.

I had bought a brand new Dell XPS L702X laptop and started it for the first time with the factory regular HDD. It took almost a minute to get into Windows. After switching to the SSD the start time was down to about 19 seconds from the time. In both cases that's the time it took from when I pressed the power button to when I was in Windows and it was done loading. I didn't need to change any sort of settings. That time drop was only from "plug n play." I love that there is A LOT less heat generated which is a huge positive when the laptop is actually on your lap. With the less heat the computer's fan doesn't need to run other than when the processor is calculating a bunch of stuff so the fan is quieter. The SSD itself is also completely silent unlike the standard HDD which you could always hear spinning. I have zero negatives about this product. I'm a believer now and I'll be using SDDs for life. It's worth every penny.

This is a replacement for my X25-M. That drive lasted and still have ~95% life left after 3 years, according to Intel's tools. It was only 80GB, so too small for what I wanted. I got the 520 in the 180GB capacity; it allows me to move all of my VMs to the SSD, making them run much better.The 520 is not the cheapest SSD. While functionally identical to other SF-2281 drives, this one has been validated and has a custom firmware, plus Intel's top-shelf flash memory. That was worth the extra money to me, but it may not to you.I'm only using it on a SATA2 port, but it is more than fast enough there. This is one of the fastest SSDs you can get. Worth the money, and recommended.

Pros: Uses Intel 5k flash. Most competing drives use 3k flash which is cheaper but lasts 40% less. May not be an issue but I would like the drive to last as long as possible. Reliable; 5 year warranty, and Intel has been selling the same product without so much as a firmware update for almost 8 months. Sandforce controller has better performance than the competition with data on the drive; see reviews at Tweaktown and Real World Labs. Excellent Toolbox program to periodically optimize drive. Unique Intel firmware with working TRIM; other Sandforce drives don't have working TRIM unless using 5.0.3 or higher firmware. Relatively low power consumption.Cons: Expensive, but compare price to the Kingston Hyper X non-3k which is also 5k flash. This is a better deal. Sandforce controller is not as fast as the competition with incompressible data such as mp3s and jpgs.Other thoughts: Intel is readying an update, the 525 series, which might be mSATA only. Perhaps it will fix the Sandforce AES-256 bug, which is not an issue for me. Intel 330 series drives are similar to these except they use cheaper 3k flash like most competing drives.

What I liked most--the deal maker over competitve drives--was the kit that came with the drive and instructions and utility software and detailed information (e.g. compatibilty) easily available from Intel's web site. My sequential read speed is up 5x and writes are up 2x, and I have suppport and utilities. Love it! They don't get 5 stars because their data migration software (also came in the kit) worked well, but, it shrank my system partition to 29 MB, so small I couldn't run a backup--not good timing. It was easy enough to resolve, but took awhile. Intel earns my tempered praise, I will buy more of their disks and recommend them.

My PC has a SATA II interface, so I was concerned that I wouldn't see a big performance boost. After I moved my OS over to the 180G SSD I have seen a marked difference in loading times in Windows and larger apps, including games.The Intel app for migration kept giving me errors, though. If it gives you a problem, google MiniTool Partition Wizard. Free program, works wonders. Make your partition smaller than the new SSD, then copy/paste from one drive to the other. PC will restart, then finish the job. Afterwards your new SSD will have all the boot flags etc it needs, and will be your new C: =)

I bought this as an upgrade for my Alienware M17xr2. Unfortunately that particular model only supports SATA-II, but I decided to go with this in case I buy a new machine soon. It gives excellent speeds and has made a huge difference in performance.I had trouble choosing due to the deluge of similar-sounding SSD's, but I chose this one because it's an Intel that carried excellent reviews and benchmarks, plus, I liked the sound of the 5-year warranty.I also like the Intel SSD Toolbox software that you can download from Intel for managing your drive.I am not disappointed!

I previously had an Intel X-25M 80GB SSD as my boot drive for my home built computer in Aug. 2010. I wanted a SATA III drive, and after much research, I settled on this one. There are a bunch of less expensive alternatives out there, but my experience with Intel and their reputation at-large made it a simple decision to stay with Intel. I installed it, setup my BIOS, used the migration software, and was up an running in less than 15 minutes. The migration software is FAST. Much faster than typical Windows file copies in the GB range. Most 3rd party software (and this IS! [Acronis]) is terrible, but not this one. While I need some more time to really see the difference in performance, I have no doubt I made the right decision!!

Windows is amazingly fast now with this SSD installed. Programs start instantly and the computer is very quiet without the hard disk spinning! Physical Installation was easy with the included mounting bracket.System transfer was super easy and seemed to be working fine. However I since have found a problem.The Intel Disk Migration software created a tiny (32MB) Windows 7 System Reserved Partition which will not allow Windows Backup to run. I'm hoping this doesn't cause any other problems since it's next to impossible to fix without completely reinstalling Windows now! No response from Intel technical support either!Would have given it 5 stars if the software did its job and 4 if Intel supported the product better! As is I'd heartily recommend the SSD if you use another method to partition it.

Great way to speed up your system. Once I installed Win7 and all of the necessary drivers and software my system is ready to go in about 12 seconds. Comes with some nice software to manage your disk.I was unable to transfer my existing drive to this ssd due to my lack of knowledge regarding cloning software. My old hdd was a GPT disk which most of the free cloning software do not like to copy. I was forced to complete a fresh install of Windows in order to use the new drive.
