Well built, solid performance, and the SX930 is quite sexy!
Minor: SX930 is slightly overpriced
The ADATA Premier SP550 240GB and the ADATA XPG SX930 are solid performing well made drives that are worthy upgrades for any user seeking an SSD for their Gaming machine, laptop, or general purpose PC...
Not as fast as other high performance drives, No 960GB version available
ADATA also brings a lot of value with this drive. The thing that really stands out in the 5-year warranty and the higher binned NAND. Many companies are only offering 3-year warranties on their drives these days. Also this drive comes with a 3.5-inch to 2...

Adata's accessory package is comparable to the best on the market today. The SX930 also uses enhanced MLCflash that is new and exciting.
MLCis mainly just a way to compete with Samsung's superior flash before the 3D ramp up begins for Micron. The SX930 price is not competitive enough to be a real option for gamers or other targeted user group.
Flash enhancements for aging 2D technology are still not able to fill the gap between Samsung V-NAND and everything else. A lot of money is going into controller development to keep 15nm/16nm 2D flash viable until IMFT and Flash Forward's 3D roll-out. I...
Fast sequential-read speeds, Long five-year warranty, Well-conceived utility software, Good mix of accessories
Slower-than-average write speeds
A capable midrange SSD, ADATA's XPG SX930 delivers a good accessory and software bundle, plus some interesting write-caching tech, but it makes sense versus competing Samsung, SanDisk, and Crucial drives mainly as a price play. Read More…...
Very good sequential read.write speeds, Supports TRIM, NCQ, S.M.A.R.T, and robust ECC, 5Year product warranty support, Lightweight compact storage solution, Resistant to extreme shock impact, Free copy of Acronis True Image included
Poor IOPS performance, Doesn't stand out from competitive products
At the time of this review, the ADATA SX930 240GB drive is a good value, its deficiency in IOPS performance notwithstanding. The inclusion of Acronis True Image and the spacer and 3.5″ mounting tray are nice value-adds if you need them...

The ADATA XPG SX930 delivers great speeds of up to 550MB/s read and 460MB/s write with the newly adopted JMicron JMF670H controller and high binned 16nm MLC Micron NAND. Designed for gamers and overclockers in mind, the SX930 should prove to deliver enou...
Now that the SATA GB/s interface is pretty much saturated as far as read/write speeds go, we see SSD manufacturers concentrating more on endurance, reliability, and cost effectiveness. ADATA seems to have done just that with the XPG SX930 as there reall...

To be frank, reviewing a SATA MLC SSD has gotten rather unexciting over the past year or so. On the performance side there are barely any areas where one can get enthusiastic about because the SATA 6Gbps interface and AHCI driver stack are both so saturat...
Decent speeds, improved handling of compressible data over the SX900, Brackets and software included for easy installation, Designed for longevity, 5 Year Warranty
Not the best value at it's current price
The ADATA XPG SX930 480GB model can be found online as low as AUD$279 which seems reasonable. When you look at the Samsung EVO 850 and SanDisk Ultra II with similar advertised speeds, a street price reduction of ~$10 would probably make the SX930 more com...
