+il2xbox Short answer: likely coincidence.Long answer: SATA Revision 3 runs at 6Gb/s (* 1000 = 6000Mb/s / 8 (bits/bytes) = 750MB/s) with an overhead, due to it's encoding, of 4/5 (8b/10b encoding) reducing the max throughput to 600MB/s. At this point it pretty much comes down to controllers or other overheads. Having quickly checked Crucial M4s on Newegg, they all seem to have a Max Sequential Write Speed of 500MB/s (at least when looking at 128GB drives). It's likely this is an underestimated number so that they don't have users complaining of false advertising (it's conceivable that some of their controller chips could leverage 10% more than the given speed, which is still well within the ceiling of SATA3, you'd just have to be very lucky to receive one).The fact that his particular drive can write at 512MB/s is within spec and likely nothing more than a coincidence, especially when one considers that we're talking about Base2 numbers (2^9=512) while most, if not all, drive manufacturers have been using the Base10 system for decades.
I'd say if you must get only one for gaming (or are getting one for now and
will upgrade later), get a Hard Drive first and then think about an SSD. I
don't care about how much faster an SSD is, but when you can get a 1TB HDD
for the same price as a 128GB SSD, the choice is obvious. Would you rather
have slower load times between levels, or constantly be
uninstalling/reinstalling your games from steam because you ran out of
space?
+Winston - YouTube Just got mine. I'm keeping the HDD for backup.
Why should you get an SSD?

They use flash storage, also called solid state drives (SSDs); there are no moving parts in the drive. You won't find any hard drives in cell phones and MacBook Airs.
