    this is a great storage enhancement device. as edited, the results are twisted to the point of being unrepresentative of a quality of performance achieved, along with making it look like i presented this mess in the first place. and the spelling/nomenclature (i make mistakes here and there, but man, wth???)

    the reviews should be edited for spelling and grammar only, this way it remains as written and is truly original.
    I think that this may be his issue.

    Ohh no Vinny, I miss some things that jake picks up and the editor has to present it the way Pure Overclock wants it not the individual...... There is no "I" in team.

    I like the drive. Looks like it really improves system performance considerably.
    I'd like to see this compared with Intel's Rapid Storage Technology, side by side.
