Intel today unveiled the Intel Solid-State Drive (SSD) 750 Series, its highest performing SSD for use in client PC storage devices and workstations. The 750 series delivers greater than four times the performance of SATA-based SSDs by utilizing four lanes of PCIe 3.0 and the NVM Express (NVMe) standard.

For added flexibility, it is available as both an add-in card for systems with an accessible PCIe 3.0 slot and as a 2.5 inch small form factor solution. Intel also announced the availability of the Intel SSD 535 Series which offers the ideal balance of cost and performance for mainstream client PC storage devices.
Read more about the SSD 750 Series and SSD 535 Series, as well as tests and configurations.

Pcper and kirguru also have published their reviews, it seems like that drive eats all the sata ssds for breakfast.

For that kind of $. They should do a much better job of centering the thermal pads on the ICs. They're sized perfectly...for a reason. That would really piss me off. Call me anal. :shadedshu:

Anal :roll:
It really wont make any difference the way the pads are. How do you know if the guy that pulled it apart didn't have some of the pads pull off and stick to the cooler and for photo reasons just dropped them on for the photo?

But really if that wasn't the case, the offset is nothing, really ;)

Me wants :p

Makes no difference... no need at all... they dont need cooling just protection... the same chips are all over the back of the card (we have 6 1.2TB drives) and no heat sink or pads.

Oh, ok. I thought it was that way for a reason. I guess I got the wrong idea from the review.
The die configuration is actually fairly interesting because the packages on the front-side on the PCB (i.e. the one that's covered by the heat sink and where the controller is) are quad-die with 64GiB capacity (4x128Gbit), whereas the packages on the back-side of the PCB are all single-die. I suspect Intel did this for heat reasons because PCIe is more capable of utilizing NAND to its full potential, which increases the heat output and obviously four dies inside one package generate more heat than a single die.
My bad.

They should have compared it to the OCZ Z-Drive R4 CM88/CM84
