Intel SSD 335 (240GB) Review
by Kristian Vättö on October 29, 2012 11:30 AM ESTPerformance vs. Transfer Size
ATTO is a great tool for quickly testing sequential performance at multiple transfer sizes. Surprisingly the SSD 335 is slightly behind SSD 520 and 330 in both read and write speeds. Small file read performance isn't very good with only the 320 coming in slower, though small IO reads have always been bad on SandForce drives. Fortunately write speeds are much better since ATTO uses highly compressible data.

If Samsung continues to produce the 830 as a value drive compared to the 840, I think Intel will have trouble selling these. I don't see any advantage.Kristian Vättö - Monday, October 29, 2012 - link
Samsung is phasing out the SSD 830 by the end of November, so it won't be available much longer.mfenn - Monday, October 29, 2012 - link

They're only cheap now to get rid of them; once they're out of the channel people can't point to the old model discount for why the new one is too expensive.If you want a bigger SSD, now's the time to buy the 830 you've been lusting over.

Love my job, since I've been bringing in $5600… I sit at home, music playing while I work in front of my new iMac that I got now that I'm making it online(Click on menu Home)http://goo.gl/ntYAX

Samsung's drivers are flaky if hit hard, and of course less reliable. These Intel drives with Sandforce controllers aren't as good as Intel controllers, but still...Micron/Crucial and Intel are the best choices.
