ASUS ROG RAIDR PCI-Express SSD

ASUS ROG RAIDR PCI-Express SSD

So think a Revodrive, yet different. ASUS is to release the Republic of Gamers (ROG) RAIDR, a PCI-Express SSD that uses a number of mSATA SSD sub-units in an internal RAID 0 configuration that's abstract to the host. As it goes with every other ROG product, the RAIDR is dressed in secsi red+black, and uses a conventional full-height add-on card design that's completely covered by an EMI shield. 

More details and photo's have now surfaced, the unit has a PCI-Express 2.0 x2 interface and uses two SandForce SF2281-driven SSD mSATA units striped in RAID 0 configuration. ASUS is planning 120 GB and 240 GB models. The 120 GB model offers sequential transfer rates of up to 765 MB/s reads with 775 MB/s writes. The 240 GB one offers up to 830 MB/s reads, with up to 810 MB/s writes.

The mSATA use Toshiba-made 19 nm MLC NAND flash chips, with 16 KB page size. The ROG RAIDR supports TRIM command, NCQ and SMART, despite being a RAID 0-based SSD. It is bootable with support for Windows 8 Secure Boot.

ASUS is to include a license to Kaspersky Antivirus 2013. It will apparantly also include software that lets you tweak the SSD. prices are TBA.

Just about two of any newer ssd's will easily beat that out for performance. Not much impressed with that, and SF to boot, no thanks.
