Intel Solid-State Drive Series 335 review

Intel has revved up its mainstream SSD line from the Series 330 to the Series 335, and the company sent over a 240GB model for evaluation (and 240GB is apparently the only capacity it is launching this series with). The new drives feature 20nm NAND flash memory, compared with the 25nm chips in the older series, but Intel continues to use an LSI/SandForce SF-2281 controller with custom Intel firmware. The company uses the same controller in its Series 330 and Series 520 drives.

Crucial m4 256GB review

If you want to give your notebook or desktop PC a major speed boost, Crucial's m4 256GB solid state drive is a must-have. It's one of the fastest drive's on the market and it'll not only speed up boot-up times if used as a system drive, it'll make your applications launch almost instantly. The only drawback of this drive is its high price, but if you absolutely need the speed and you can afford it, it's well worth it.
