Final Words
SandForce conveyed to me that although we may see hardware this year, production firmware and silicon won’t be ready until early Q1. Anything that ships before then is not what SandForce considers production worthy. This is an important distinction as SandForce’s partners often ship with pre-release hardware/firmware in order to gain traction and sales as quickly as possible. We’ll probably see less of this as SandForce matures as a company.

The specs behind the SF-2000 are downright amazing. If SandForce can deliver this sort of performance within two quarters I will be floored. If we’re talking about 500MB/s for a single drive next year, the sort of performance you’ll be able to get through a multi-drive array will be staggering. We’re easily heading towards gigabytes per second of affordable I/O bandwidth, not to mention that SandForce will have nearly maxed out 6Gbps SATA on its first attempt.

Sandforce SSD's are gonna almost max out SATA 6Gbps in 6 months time :O All u enthusiats make sure u have SATA 6Gbps ports when u buy new mobos.

Very interesting time ahead for SSD's and hope prices of 40GB SF-1200 based drives falls under 3k this december due to these new drives :D

This look very promising...even higher than New Intel’s 3rd generation X25-M/X25-E SSDs don Sandforce-2000 will support up to 500MB/s sequential read and write speeds
