Unimpressive I/O Performance - Nice, Low Operating Temperature
11 Sep 2010
If possible, I would RATE THIS ITEM 3.75 STARS
I am using a Lenovo 128GB SATA 1.8" Solid State Drive as supplied with a ThinkPad X301 laptop (Samsung MMCQE28G8MUP-0VA SSD). The drive is very small and seams to operate with very little power. I have not measured the exact current (A) value, but the drive is always cool to the touch measuring 80.4 degrees F in an ambient environment of 74.5 degrees as per a KINTREX IRT0421 Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer (see photo).
I/O benchmark test scores for the Lenovo 128GB SSD (Samsung MMCQE28G8MUP-0VA SSD) are not that impressive. Especially as speed is suppose to be one of the advantages to operating a SSD drive. Using ATTO ver. 2.46 measured a maximum read speed of 96.9MB/sec and write speed of 74.2MB/sec (see photo). The I/O test was conducted on an Intel DP55KG motherboard running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 attached to a NSI LK-13513 2Port SATA To eSATA and 1Port Power case slot adapter.
For comparison, using a Hitachi 2TB 7200 RPM hard drive attached to the same Intel DP55KG internal SATA controller measure a read speed of 175BMB/sec and writes at ~145 MB/sec. Using the DP55KG RAID controller in RAID 0 mode with the same 2TB hard drives (x2) is yielding ~260MB/sec read and ~240MB/sec write speed. On the same motherboard, with an Intel/LSI PCIe x8 controller card operating in RAID 0 with the afore mentioned drives is yielding ~235MB/sec read and ~215MB/sec write.
Minus 1.00 for unimpressive hard drive I/O performance.
Minus 0.25 for value.

Blazing speed
21 Jan 2011

My T400 was getting a bit sluggish with starting Windows 7. By the time I pushed the power on button to when I could work within Outlook was about 7 minutes.
I've been doing IT for over 16 years. My system is clean and working great (just slow....).
I decided to get the SSD to help speed up my system. I used Windows 7 system image utility to backup and restore onto the new SSD. Worked great. Before installing this new SSD I would also suggest ensuring you have the latest BIOS on your system. Some older BIOS may not recognize the new SSD drive.
From power on to working within Outlook is now about 45 seconds. I actually enjoy working on my laptop again. I also have a secondary SATA drive in the DVD bay. I used that drive to hold VM's. All programs and my docs are on the SSD. Extremely satisfied with this SSD and the performance it has given to my T400.
