Corsair Neutron XT (240GB, 480GB & 960GB) SSD Review: Phison S10 Debuts

The ugly truth is that the SSD market has been tough for almost all the typical PC component vendors lately. With Samsung, SanDisk, and Micron/Crucial being serious about the client market, it' s not easy for other companies to find a way to provide...

All in all, while it is an improvement over the S8, the S10 (and by extension, the Neutron XT) lacks a 'wow' factor that would really help it stand out from the rest. The TLC NAND support in the S10 is certainly a nice feature, but I don't want to...

One Minute Review: Corsair Neutron XT SSD 240GB

C orsair has entered an SSD market that's saturated with brands and models, with little to differentiate. Ever the image-proud company, Corsair is playing at the top end, with its new Neutron XT SSDs, up against the best Samsung, SanDisk and Intel have...

Solid performance as a great price.

Arrived DOA

Will be trying my luck with a Samsung EVO this time around. Sad, I've always liked Corsair products, but those have always been fans, coolers and PSU's. First time buying an SSD from them and I get burned, doesn't leave a very good taste in my mouth.

Corsair?

Arrived DOA.

One messed up after 5 months

- Pretty fast - Pretty big (though I only got the 240gb)

- One messed up after 5 months (probably sooner but I don't know if the things I was experiencing prior was due to the failing drive). If I access certain parts of my raid for too long, it bsods. The worst part about a raid is that it is nearly...

Excellent Drive!

I purchased two of these to use in my most recent build. I connected them in a RAID 0 configuration and installed Windows 8.1 in a matter of minutes. Afterwards, I tested them with Crystal Disk Mark and was more than happy with the results. Sequential...

Quad-Core processor, outstanding performance, thin and lightweight, high-end features at a modest price.

None so far. I will edit this review if that changes though.

This SSD works beyond Warp Speed.

Yes I would highly recommend it to everyone. Yes I would purchase it again. A word of caution however, If you will be installing this SSD in an older case, be certain that it can be mounted properly. Fortunately this was a new Antec 900 case with had a...

I didn't think it would be possible to launch Win 10 from button push to "ready to work" in say 5 seconds. Its incredible.

None so far

Corsair CSSD-N480GBXT

good storage, better speed, windows starts in mere seconds

Faaaaaaaast!

SOLID product from Corsair, they did a good job in the development of this SSD.

I've been using this for a while now and feel comfortable giving the review. I came from a Samsung 850 Pro 500GB SSD. This Corsair Neutron XT is quicker than my old SSD, and is seeming to be much more reliable already. I did one reformat on my previous...

Zero cons.

Super fast, installed Windows 7 Professional in less than 7 minutes from USB and upgraded to Windows 10 is around the same time, setup was easy breezy cover girl. Shame the SSD cage is somewhat hidden inside of my Corsair 380T because this drive is...

None that I can see yet, I'm a little worried about other reviews saying it died quickly so time will tell.
