Introduction

G.SKILL Logo


G.SKILL has been a major player in the DRAM and flash memory business for a long time. Recently they have added an SSD lineup to their portfolio. With Sandforce's controller being the latest rage on the SSD market it is no surprise that G.SKILL offers drives with that controller too. They sent us their 240 GB Phoenix Pro which comes with a special version of the Sandforce SF-1222 controller that enables a higher number of up to 50,000 IOPS.

Package Back

G.SKILL's Phoenix Pro SSD comes in a normal package that looks much less spectacular than what is inside. It is good to see a "Sandforce driven" sticker on the front, the back has more detailed specs.
