The Adata is supposedly a repackaged Intel X25M. Any of you have experience with the Adata drive? Really getting tempted to jump on the SSD bandwagon, but want to stay with Intel drives.


THanks
 
I thought several of those re-packaged X25-M drives were G1's (except Kingston's), meaning they have no TRIM support... Hence the reason you see them selling for so much less than the G2 Intel drives. If they're actually G2 drives you may be able to hack Intel's firmware for TRIM support tho (as some users recently did for their 40GB Kingston SSD's, which is the same as the 40GB X25-V).
