Style Name: V70Size Name: 120 GB Verified Purchase
I have the Silicon Power Velox V70 120GB SSD installed in my Home-Theater/Gaming PC as the boot drive. A fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit was uneventful and completed rapidly. The SSD did need a quick format (7 sec.) at the "drive options" point in the install before Windows would allow the OS to be installed to it. The SSD boots Windows 7 Ultimate in about 20 seconds. I have a minimum of programs installed so as to keep the SSD as empty as possible. The SP V70 came with a refined looking black metal 2.5" to 3.5" adapter. The drive itself has a brushed aluminum top and plastic bottom as is common for SSDs these days. Amazon packaged the SSD well, and the SP V70 is also boxed nicely.

The Silicon Power Velox V70 uses 25nm Intel Synchronous Flash. It is not actual "toggle NAND" as claimed in the product description according to several tech websites. The V70 uses the ubiquitous and very good LSI/Sandforce 2281 Controller with its latest firmware. Silicon Power's latest firmware as of July 2013 is 5.06. Many SSDs use the Sandforce controller, and it is for a reason- it's very good. On Tweaktown the SP V70 tested on par if not better than the best SSDs from OCZ, SanDisk, Intel and Plextor on Crystal Disk Mark 3.0. SSDs using other controllers like Phison's are also quite good too which makes a point. The vast majority of SSDs available now perform quite well so price can be a deciding factor in choosing one.

PROTECTING AN SSD FROM PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION:

Once I installed Windows, I immediately opened up a command prompt and enabled TRIM support. If you do not enable TRIM support you will quickly see your fast new SSD become progressively more and more sluggish to a point where it is not much faster than a regular hard drive.

Style Name: Slim S60Size Name: 120 GB
If the boot time of your computer is sluggish then you may want to invest in an SSD like the Silicon Power S60 120GB 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive.

▶ Package Contents
* Silicon Power S60 SSD
* Mounting Screws

▶ Accessories
Beside the mounting screws, there are no accessories for this product. This means you may need to purchase a SATA-to-SATA interface cable, a SATA power adapter, and a 3.5" mounting adapter for desktops, or a USB-to-SATA cable and a Drive sleeve for laptops. My experience is that most companies don't include such items, but it would be nice to have such accessories included.

▶ Specifications
* Capacity: 120GB
* Dimensions: 100mm x 69.85mm x 7mm
* Weight: 63g
* Ultra Slim 7mm depth
* Vibration Resistance Test: 20G
* Shock Resistance Test: 1500G Max
* Color: Black

▶ Hardware
As other SSD's, this SSD follows the 2.5" width pattern, but being a very thin 7mm (0.27" inches). The product comes in a black aluminum with the Silicon Power name, logo, model name, and storage size - my review unit being 120GB. As of writing this review, I'm comparing the difference between the S60, S70, V60, and V70, and can say the differences between each SSD are negligible, beside the S series being 7mm thick and the V series being 9.5mm thick. The more expensive drives have "SMART monitoring" and an improved "Error correction" system for bad blocks. This may interest you, but each drive has a 3 year limited warranty. If anything ever happens to the drive then it can be replaced.

All i can say is WOW!!! This drive is amazing.Went from a boot time of about 30-40 seconds to about 10 seconds if not less. This drive performs wonderfully. I recommend dedicating this drive for your OS and keeping your regular drive for your other basic needs. Overall the speed i get from this thing is amazing!!! Overall great product.

This thins is insanely fast for the price. I got it for $84.00. Gives me a 7.9 on Windows rating. Windows installed on less than two mins and boot time is 16 seconds. I Installed some programs and The bar moved so far my eyes couldn't pick it up. Its new so I hope it lasts. Definitely recommend this for others.

Does not get much better. Delivery was quick, installation was straight forward. No additional steps needed to install the OS. The only funky part was the registration, no place to put in my serial number. I will steer everyone to the product when they ask me which ssd to purchase.
