The fellas at eTeknix have posted a review of the Corsair Neutron 240GB SSD today. You can see our evaluation here for comparison purposes.

We do acknowledge that there may some tweaks and improvements that will occur down the line to improve the controller and the drive as a whole, but as it is now, the Neutron series of drives have got off to a great start, stirring the hornets nest of drives on the market.
 
Tried using one of these drives in a customer's computer. It wasn't my first choice but it was a good deal and in-stock. Customer ended up getting massive pausing/stuttering issues. Those issues went away when we switched to a sandforce based SSD. I'm not saying that these issues will happen for anyone who buys the drive, but buyer beware - unproven new controller is unproven.
 
I've got the Neutron Series GTX 240GB drive, it's been working great for me in my gaming rig so far. A friend of mine bought the same drive and it's been flawless for him too.

I'm using it for the OS only. Any game that I want to install is placed on a 20GB RAM drive. I then image the RAM drive to a 2TB hard disk. I have a different image for any game that I want to play. Swapping between games takes about 4 minutes to load the new image to the RAM drive. Life is actually pretty good :)
