    The solid state drive (SSD) is a new and relatively niche storage medium, but one that is slowly but steadily eating away at the universality of the hard disk drive. After all, solid state drives offer some big advantages over hard disk drives - extremely fast random accesses, absolutely silent operation, ability to withstand tremendous amounts of shock, vibration and atmospheric pressure (or the lack thereof).

    This comparison guide will compare the performance of all the solid state drives we can get our hands on. This would be similar to our Hard Disk Drive Performance Comparison Guide. It may start off small, but we intend to keep adding new solid state drives and even new benchmarks as we go along. Let's take a look at the solid state drives we have rounded up for this comparison.

    In this update, we added the OCZ Agility 2 (E) 60 GB solid state drive, and the Kingston SSDNow V 30 GB solid state drive.

    Do you have Plans on adding the G.Skill Phoenix and/or Phoenix-Pro offerings into this comparison guide?

    I have a pair of Phoenix Pro in my computer now and they work wonderfully but I'm wondering how they stack up in your guide to the other brands and models.

    Hope to get them, but no guarantees. Check back for more updates. We have more SSDs coming in! :thumb:
