   The truly stunning numbers for me were the power consumption- half of many drives. I was also impressed with how much quieter and larger in capcity it is than its Raptor cousins (300GB- yay!).

   I was, frankly, dissappointed in the boot time- and it was splitting hairs in performance with many apps. While doing well on the measurement tools is great, it would have been nice to see it go across the board more. It makes me scratch my head about what's really important to look at when you look at the metrics.

   Otherwise, neat new drive with a very novel design!

   I really like the look of it but I can see it costing £200+ when it launches over here.

   I'm not sure its worth it. Yet.
