ADATA Launches XPG SX930 Series SATA SSD

ADATA Technology, a leading manufacturer of high-performance DRAM modules and NAND Flash products, today launches the XPG SX930 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Gaming SSD for professional gamers and overclockers. It comes with a JMicron controller and Enterprise-grade MLC plus NAND Flash, offering excellent performance and durability for gaming systems and workstations. Thanks to ADATA's exclusive pSLC Cache Technology and DDR3 DRAM Cache Buffer, the SX930 leads to victory when you're in a 3D battle with highly-improved efficiency.

Featuring Enterprise-grade MLC plus NAND flash, the XPG SX930 outperforms other SSDs with excellent durability. It is not only suitable for gaming systems, but also ideal for workstations, which require long-term and stable operation. By applying JMicron controllers, the sequential read/write speed of SX930 is up to 560/460 MB/s, and it's available in 120GB, 240GB and 480GB. In addition, the SX930 is equipped with the innovative and exclusive "pSLC Cache Technology" by ADATA, which can effectively enhance the data transfer speed for the ultimate performance to meet professional gamers' demands.
For the optimum efficiency, the SP930 is equipped with a DDR3 DRAM Cache Buffer, improving the random read/write performance up to 2 times when compared to SSDs without a DRAM cache. The SX930 also supports hardware BCH ECC (Error Correction Code) up to 72bits per 1KB, providing high reliability and data protection. And thanks to the support of NCQ, S.M.A.R.T., and Windows TRIM Command, the SX930 can effectively improve the efficiency of data transfer and maintain great stability.

ADATA SSDs come with a free download of the software "SSD Toolbox" help users quickly and conveniently configure, optimize, and monitor the overall health of their solid state drives, such as system set up, security erase, or firmware updates. Utilizing top-quality NAND flash technology, the SX930 is backed by a solid 5-year warranty for reliable long-term operation.

Another useless SKU for the bargain bin. The upcoming SSD war is not about who can market their crap the best, it's about price. Soon, the best-performing SSDs will be below 25¢/GB, and the crappy ones will be even cheaper (but still not worth wasting your time). Eventually the lesser brands will be absorbed by the 2 or 3 largest...

Well, they've seemingly learnt from their mistakes and I think I'd rather have this than a SandForce based controller in my SSD.

So basically it is a Crucial MX100 with some firmware improvements.

The MX100 uses a Marvell 88SS9189 controller.

The crappy ones will still be good for older systems, like those millions Core 2 Duo/Athlon II/low end APU systems out there.

Latest gen JMicron SSD controllers are quite capable. Don't underestimate them based on their first attempts at SSD's with Kingston drives back in the very early days...

AnandTechPerformance wise the JMF670H is fairly similar to Silicon Motion's SM2246EN, but at the end of the day the SM2246EN wins in both performance and power efficiency...
Silicon Motion is already bottom of the barrel, JMicron is the mould-infested bottom of the bottom of the barrel.
