Corsair Force GT 180GB SSD scores 9/10 and wins the "Stellar Performance" award at VR Zone

. "Even if only slightly more so, Corsair managed to make the fastest 2.5” SATA SSD drive available even faster... The Force GT 180GB drive demonstrated speeds reaching over 560MB/s read and 525MB/s write in some of our synthetic benchmarks, plus it managed to create a duplicate copy of a 4.5GB file at a speed higher than 107MB/s. It also set the record for our fastest Windows 7 boot time with a time less than 25 seconds, even though the difference compared to the other Sandforce SF-2281 controller based drives is hardly a second."
