SiliconEdg e SSD Black edition with SandForce SF-1200 Controller .
Status:
New
The recently released SiliconEdge Blue SSDs sound good, but what I'd really love is for a Black version to come out that has a 5-year warranty and utilizes the less-expensive SandForce controllers. A 100-200GB with a reasonable price point?
The JMicron controllers aren't really doing it for me, especially at the current price points.
I thought at first that SiliconSystems' IP and tech would be incorporated...but the Blue turned out to be a JMicron...why?

Or, here's a thought: use Marvell's controller. Most WD drives use a Marvell chip (granted it's not a controller), so why not its controller with WD's tweaked firmware?
The SiliconEdge drives are, needless to say, getting a bit long in the tooth.
