4-Way SSD Round-Up Redux: OCZ, Corsair, PhotoFast
Corsair P64 SSD
In a previous round-up, we took a look at Corsair's P256 SSD. Like that drive, the P64 model pictured below features Samsung technology, with a Samsung controller and Flash memory paired to 128MB of integrated cache.
Corsair's specifcations for the P64 claim sequential read and write speeds of 220MB/s and 120MB/s, respectively, with max shock resistance of 1500G and a mean time before failure (MTBF) of over 1 million hours.

Corsair P64 SSD
As the "P64" in this drive's product name implies, Corsair's P64 features a 64GB total capacity. And as is the case with all of the other SSDs features here it has SATA 3.0Gb/s connectivity and a heavy-duty aluminum enclosure as well.
With the P64 disassembled, you can see the PCB and Samsung S3C29RBB01-YK40 controller used in the drive as well as its 128MB of on-board cache memory. Samsung MLC flash memory is also used in the drive, with six chips situated on the underside of the PCB and two soldered right on top.
