I bought two of these and have them in a raid-0 on my Z68 motherboard ( the two 6Gb/s ports )

HDTUNE says I get a consistent 1GB/s read rate.

it is nothing short of amazing.

You going to try SWtOR Cat?

Have you experienced any audio stuttering with the drives being raid 0?

Not while playing any game, I don't use this particular PC for anything like iTunes.
The drives are SSD and have zero seek times so
I would think an audio stutter off a drive that does 1GB/s
would have to be a serious drive problem requiring me RMA them.

I have no experience with crucial, but after 4 drives failing on me I won't use anything but Intel. They are so damn reliable and I will sacrifice some speed for that. Although the 510 is still pretty fast.

FWIW, I have a Crucial SSD (wow) and an OCZ SSD (boot). Never had a problem with Crucial, but OCZ drive died within a week. Replacement has been fine though.

Every time I've tried to use a single SSD on a laptop I haven't had much success and I've seen lockups for a few seconds.

I've use some Intel SSDs on a caching raid controller and I've never seen locks.
I have NEVER had good success with OCZ whether it was SSD or memory chips, I refuse to buy them.
I always use Crucial main memory so hopefully they make a good SSD, too early to tell right now, So far no problems.

Yeah, well I have a ramdisk, so....HDtune says speeds of 7-8GB/s.

Nyah.

My Patriot SSD rocks, but was not large enough for OS + Gaming Folder.

I'm using an OCZ Vertex 3 (150GB), as my OS folder.
The first drive failed within a week or so, but I had the instant-product-replacement option from my computer store (Memory Express); next day, brand new same drive with all my data copied over.
The replacement has been good for a couple of months now.

Not getting 7GB/sec or even the 1GB/sec, but I'm on my desktop and ready to go 25 seconds after pushing the power button.
