The editors liked
The Intel SSD 730 Series has a high endurance rating and comes with a five-year warranty. The drive offers a huge boost in performance compared with regular hard drives and can handle RAID configurations
The editors didn't like
The new drive doesn't support encryption
And its performance isn't the best among similarly priced SSDs

great performance, excellent power consumption
price
Intel made an excellent SSD, based on its own controller and NAND flash modules. The performance and the power consumption are as claimed, but the price is too high comparing to other drives with the same capabilities.PROsCONs- great performance- excellen...

We are pleased to welcome the new Intel 730 SSD which features Intel’s third-generation controller and is targeted at enthusiasts. It is an indication of Intel’s intention to stay on the top-end SSD market after its position has been weakened by the m...
The Intel series 730 SSD positions itself in a massively saturated market. Now, all SSDs in this class win and lose a little from each other in respective benchmarks, overall it remains to be a lot of the same. Especially once you house that SSD into you...

It's great to see that Intel has not forgotten the enthusiast market. While the SSD 520 and SSD 530 weren't bad SSDs, they didn't exactly fill the shoes of X-25M—they were just another batch of SandForce drives, with more generally better validation. With...
Excellent performance, especially IOPS at low QD, Data Center pedigree and reliability, Data Center grade power loss protection, Good cost/GB (se below),
High power draw and corresponding high temps may be an issue for some

Word on the streets is that no self-respecting 11-year-old boy can resist computer hardware with a skull on it. It's probably a shame, then, that there aren't many 11-year-olds in the prosumer category, sporting wallets fat enough to drop twice as much mo...
