Today, we have for review the Mach Xtreme Technology MX-DS Fusion 60GB SATA3 SSD. We already know the Sandforce SF-2281 controller inside of this MX-DS Fusion 60GB from some previously tested SSDs. Of course for our review we updated the MX-DS Fusion SSD to the most current firmware, then we tested it with some benchmark tools in AHCI and Legacy IDE mode at the SATA3 controller.
Thanks for the support …
