Perfectly good little SSD, it's never going to be the fastest SSD at this price point but still a worthy upgrade.

My new Adata SSD is awesome. Purchased to upgrade my old (failed) laptop drive, and is now fast, stable, and error free. Higly Recommended.

At the start of the review is asked what is the significance of this SSD release and even though this is not the first time we have seen synchronous NAND used in the design of a SSD, what ADATA have done with the drive as a whole is far more important and thus worth shouting about.

Consistent drive performance throughout the drives lifespan; High levels of performance in most of the benchmark areas; Ultra low price per GB of storage; Synchronous NAND optimised with a Marvell controller; Designed for multimedia applications

Write performance levels slightly lower than other drives at this level

Before we weigh in with our final verdict, we'll indulge a couple of our famous value scatter plots. These plots use an overall performance score derived by comparing how each drive stacks up against a common baseline.

I was pleasantly surprised by the performance of the ADATA SP920 Series. While the smaller capacities suffer from some write speed limiting, the whole line performs extremely well in reads, and the larger capacity points give the best competition out there a run for their money.

The ADATA Premiere Pro SP920 drive is a very reasonably priced mainstream SSD that really shines at larger capacities.

£111.65inc. VAT ( At time of review ) It's been a while since we last reviewed an ADATA product so when we were asked to take a look at their new Premier Pro series drive we were very enthusiastic.

+ Great all-round package; + Fast Write speed; + Good Price

For those new to the SSD world, controller advance is the make it or break it of this game and this release, as was that of the Crucial M550 SSD before it, is the result of Marvell achieving faster and more efficient in their SS9100 series controller line.

To be honest, I don't have much to add to the conclusion of the M550 review. At 512GB and 1TB, the SP920 is an exact match with the M550. The 128GB and 256GB models lose some performance compared to the M550 due to fewer NAND dies but especially at 256GB the difference is rather insignificant.
