I don't know where Silicon Power's engineers have been in the past few years, but most consumer SSDs have been 7mm high (as my stack of M500s can attest to...) since the very beginning.

The 15mm SSDs come from the SAS lines you don't buy from amazon...

EDIT: Wrong vendor name... hurr durr

Why is it that everytime someone makes an SSD, they're a "leading provider" when I've never heard of them before? Are they coming up fast? Yes. Leading provider? Nah.

Everyone is the "Leading Provider" if they pick the right benchmarks ;)
