A-DATA has presented a new SandForce based SSD series. The SSD controller comes from the SandForce SF-2200 family and is called SF-2281. Together with a SATA 6.0 Gbps interface and TRIM support, A-DATA offers impressive speeds at both read and write.
A-DATA S511 series holds four different models. The capacity varies from 60GB up to 480GB and the specifications are similar to those of other SF-2281 SSDs from OCZ and Corsair. The read speed is 550 MB/s, while the write speed at best goes up to 520 MB/s. The write of small random files is specified to 60,000 IOPS, which is on par with OCZ Vertex 3, but slightly less than Vertex 3 Max IOPS and Corsair Force 3.
Detailed specfications for the individual models at 60GB, 120GB, 240GB and 480GB was not available at the time of writing, but A-DATA will start sales this month.
