Ultimate SSD: Intel 80GB X25-M SSD for T60, Pics HDTune!
Surprisingly, It's my third day using my laptop without any freezes whatsoever. I didn't even tweak anything just regular use. :/ So confusing sometimes.
IBM T60 2623A24- 2GHz T7200, 3GB RAM, 128GB Corsair S128, 14" SAMSUNG LCD SXGA+ TFT, 128Mb X1400,
Intel 802.11abg wireless, BT, and Vista Business SP1, 9-Cell Battery
80GB Intel X25-M SSD, 64GB Mtron 3500

80GB Intel X25-M SSD, 64GB Mtron 3500
May I ask again, if somebody knows if this SATA 1,5GBit restriction also applies to the latest Thinkpad generation? (X200/T400/W500 etc.)
And did you test if you get higher read speeds with the Intel X25-M when you are connected to a power-plug? Maybe the limitation only applies when relying on accu-power?

I'm wondering about this too very much.Eckoman wrote:May I ask again, if somebody knows if this SATA 1,5GBit restriction also applies to the latest Thinkpad generation? (X200/T400/W500 etc.)

Could you post a HD TUNE and CrystalDiskMark benches of your X25 on your TP?jlingo wrote:I'm wondering about this too very much.Eckoman wrote:May I ask again, if somebody knows if this SATA 1,5GBit restriction also applies to the latest Thinkpad generation? (X200/T400/W500 etc.)

Have you seen that !?
"Final Thoughts on SSD's
................ Making matters a little worse is the recently discovered defect in all Intel ICH9 and ICH9R chipsets which exhibit a bandwidth limit of approximately 80 MBps for SSD's. So if cost doesn't keep you away, perhaps Intel will."

I've ICH7M on AHCI mode

Oh man,
I guess that sucks to own a computer with ICH9.
Yeah my system is still using ICH7 at the moment.

An Intel can do 130/140 MB/s
The bug comes from Lenovo , we've to wait for Windows Seven much more SSD friendly

I've had the X25-M for a month now, and I haven't experienced any freezes whatsoever. I'm running XP Pro. The speed increase is incredible, and the whole OS is super responsive. This is the best upgrade ever.jlingo wrote:Surprisingly, It's my third day using my laptop without any freezes whatsoever. I didn't even tweak anything just regular use. :/ So confusing sometimes.

Yes, I was able to clone using Acronis no failure whatsoever.
Anyhow, it has been months since I bought my intel. I still experienced stuttering every couple of days. I guess it depends on how heavy I'm using my computer.
Now I replaced my intel X25-M to Mtron 3500 64GB without stuttering problem on my T60.
