G.Skill Falcon II

[Titus]

so G.Skill has a new line of SSD drives called the Falcon II...looking at the read/write specs of the Falcon II they seem a bit lower then the original Falcon SSD's...I know they use the new Indilinx Barefoot ECO controller but other then that is there a major advantage to the Falcon II's?...is TRIM support better?...is it worth it to upgrade from my Falcon 1 SSD?

thanks but your review does not have any comparisons at all between a Falcon II and the original Falcon which is what I was mainly concerned about...I want to know what/if there are any performance differences between the 2...your review is nice for those comparing a Raptor to a Falcon II SSD but I have the Original Falcon 256GB SSD

why are the specs of the Falcon II lower and what differences exist between the 2...hopefully someone knows the answer to this

If I had a Falcon 1 I would have reviewed it too. I am just an every day consumer, I do not work for G Skill (Maybe G Skill can send one my way for review ?

I'd like to know myself. What is this Indilinx ECO controller all about?

In the end though, I guess it doesn't matter much. I wouldn't buy another G.Skill SSD for anything. I had 2 256GB Falcon's fail on me. I lost a lot of money selling my replacement for less than what I originally paid for. I had to replace it with another brand where the model rhymes with "Forks".
