We've just published a review on the Intel SSD 510 series (250Gb). This high performance SSD from Intel is designed and aimed at the gamers, performance users including enthusiasts and workstation users. The SSD is based on MLC (multi-level cell) and 34nm NAND flash technology, and uses the faster SATA3 6Gbps interface. According to Intel, the 510 series can offers speeds of up to 500MB/s sequential reads and 315MB/s writes for the 250GB capacity.

Looking deeper into the specifications, the Intel SSD 510 is controlled by a Marvell 88SS9174-BKK2 controller instead of their own. This is quite a surprise, because previous models from Intel such as the X25-M used their own SSD controllers.
