Corsair's (Almost) SSD Clone of Samsung 256 GB Unit

Corsair already offers a SSD model with 128 GB capacity. In fact, it is a rebranded Samsung unit (simply changed the label on the drive). So, we should not be surprised to see that the new models offering 256 GB of storage space, is also a rebranded Samsung model. Hot Hardware performed a test on one sample, and noticed a difference with the sample from Samsung The size of the cache memory. Instead of 128 MB on the Samsung model, the Corsair unit sports "only" 64 MB. So, in other words, this drive should be slower in multiple SSD tasks/requests. However, the end user might not be able to really see the difference between both models. Regarding performance figures, the Corsair SSD reaches respectively 200 MB/s and 166 MB/s in reading and writing modes.
