I've been waiting several months to start my next build, and finally the pieces are in place: a SATA 6GB/s motherboard, a SATA 6GB/s SSD, and a newly launched Photoshop CS5 so that I can do a clean CS5 install without upgrading from a previous version.
Yet now I'm reading Anand's problems with the RealSSD, and I'm wondering just how long till Crucial gets the problems sorted out. I'm wondering if this is the kind of thing that should be deal with in a few weeks, or whether it could be a major botched product launch and only the V2.0 in 2011 or whatever will be worth buying.
Do you guys have any thoughts on the RealSSD problems and how serious they sound in terms of the ability to fix them swiftly? Sounded like something addressable with firmware, but of course that doesn't necessarily mean it'll be easy.
Should I just get the Intel X25-M G2?
