Force Series GS Solid-State Drives: Speed for the real world. Force Series GS solid-state drives are powered by a Sand Force SF-2200 SSD Processor & fast Toggle NAND memory for both fast sequential read/write speeds & strong random write speed for impressive real-world performance. --> Fast in a straight line. Fast in the curves, too. Benchmarks are great, but your PC doesnt run on benchmarks. Force Series GS has the scores, & the real-world performance to back it up. Some SSDs are strong performers with sequential read & write speeds, but bog down with random writes. Force Series GS is better. Its great at both. Works even better with the latest systems. Force Series GS supports SATA 3 6 Gb/s, so youll get superior performance from newer notebook & desktop PCs that use the newest standard. Its also fully backward compatible with SATA 2. Features Superior Sequential Read & Write Speeds The first key to real performance is sequential read & write speeds. Youll feel the speed when youre loading & saving large files. Solid-state drives store files in contiguous blocks of memory, so youll get nearly instantaneous response when you click that Load or Save button. Excellent Random Write Performance Fast random write speeds are also critical to performance youll notice on a daily basis. If youre running multiple applications at once, odds are that theyre writing small bits of data to the drive with regularity. The fast Toggle NAND memory gives Force Series GS the agility to handle them all without slowing down. Maintains its Performance Over Time Force Series GS solid-state drives support the Windows 7 TRIM comm&. This allows them to store only the data they need & perform memory optimization to ensure the fastest possible write speeds. Solid-State Reliability Because SSDs have no moving parts, they can handle shock, vibration & temperature changes far in excess of traditional hard drives. That's important for desktop PCs, and
