Fast yes, but from where do they get the chipsets? - I know that they make some chipsets themselves, but also that they buy pre-made components for most of their SSDs - just like OWC does it. If I understand the OWC descriptions most of their shipsets are from either Crucial or TechWorks. - And both Samsung and OWC have a variety of different models - right from very cheap to very expensive. > Samsung don't make hard drives and don't pretend to.

Yes, now Samsung don't make harddisks anymore after they've sold their HD division to the Seagate-WesternDigital concern. - I have indeed earlier on seen too many Samsung SpinPoint HDs simply just break down so people have lost all their data - and that on both Macs and Win-based PCs. The first year or so after Seagate-WesternDigital bought the Samsung division, Seagate - obviously also bought the already made SpinPoint discs, since Seagate sold some discs under the name "Seagate SpinPoint" to apprx. half the price of what a similar real Seagate disc would cost. - Here in Denmark we could buy such a "Seagate SpinPoint" 2tb disc for as little as apprx. £30 where the std. 2tb ST2000007AS would cost nearly £60...
