Corsair Neutron 240GB and Neutron GTX 240GB SSD Review

The Neutron 240GB box is beautifully designed with sophisticated use of typography.

The bundle includes a handy 3.5 inch drive bay, a very useful addition. They also include mounting screws for the system build.

The Neutron 240GB Solid State drive ships in a slim 7mm form factor metal chassis, offering full compatiblity with the latest slim ultrabook laptops. The PCB is bolted to the chassis via three screws.

The Neutron 240GB uses the LAMD LM87800 controller and there are two modules of Samsung DDR2 800 128MB DRAM cache, for 256MB total. This Neutron drive uses 16x16GB of Micron 25nm synchronous memory. The 16 modules are split across both sides of the PCB.

When the drive is formatted in Windows 7 there is a total of 224GB free.

As a creator of art, Remedy Entertainment have gone from strength to strength, with many of their recent releases being critical darlings (FBC: Firebreak aside). Unfortunately, their titles have been slow burners sales-wise, with CEO Tero Virtala stepping down late last year.

  1. very sexy indeed. interesting to see them only releasing 120gb and 240gb. The GTX has space on the rear of the PCB for more chips? 480GB at £330 would be great.

  2. Shame they aren’t bundling acronis with the drives, well worth an inclusion IMO for mirroring the boot drive.

  3. placed an order for a GTX. thanks.

  4. Great, but is the ordinary version well priced? the GTX is only a few quid extra, seems a better deal when facotring in write perf,.

  5. ive the 120gb GTX in my sights next week…..
