We recently tested the 512 GB version of Toshiba's latest SSD with 19 nm flash chips and a rebranded Marvell controller. Today, we are looking at the 256 GB version to investigate whether the smaller capacity reduces performance, or if it too manages to claim the performance throne.

Problem with this drive, at least in Germany, is that Toshiba
will refuse any warranty to the enduser and refer them to
the point of purchase (which so far has ticked off quite a
few people on German hardware forums).

If the shop you got this from goes belly-up during the next
two years, you will be screwed. :eek: :banghead:

I also wonder where W1zzard got the three years warranty
qote from, as Toshiba themselves don't mention this in their
brochure for the drive.
