    Intel SSD Firmware Update Speeds Performance

     
    A newly released firmware update for Intel's second-generation X25-M solid state drive is said to increase sequential data write performance by up to 40%.

    We flashed one of our Intel 34nm Gen 2 X25-M 160GB SSDs with the new firmware and ran a handful of tests under Windows 7 to see what kind of affect it had on performance. Details of the update process and optimization tool are posted on the next page, followed by some before and after benchmarks.
