Corsair adds new Force series SSDs

Corsair added three new capacities in its Force Series solid-state-drives, adding 40GB, 80GB, and 160GB models to the current lineup of 60GB, 120GB and 240GB SSDs.

Corsair Force Series solid-state drives are based on the SandForce SF-1200 SSD Processor, and includes their DuraWrite technology for great read and write speeds. Unlike most other current generation solid-state drives, the unique architecture of the SF-1200 SSD Processor allows lower capacity drives to perform with nearly the same performance as larger capacity SSDs. All three Force Series models support the TRIM command, so write performance is maintained over time.

	ATTO Bench32		IOMeter 2008 (4K Random Write/4K Aligned)
	Sequential Read Max	Sequential Write Max	IOPS	MB/s
F40	282.6 MB/s	270.1 MB/s	50,078	196.9
F80	285.6 MB/s	276.7 MB/s	51,089	199.2
F160	285.6 MB/s	275.9 MB/s	51,088	199.1

The three new additions to the Force Series SSDs from Corsair have a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price in the United States of $129.99 for the 40GB, $229.99 for the 80GB, and $449.99 for the 160GB version. The new models are expected to begin shipping worldwide in August.

All Corsair SSDs are backed by a three-year warranty. Check out Guru3D's Force 120 review right here.
