Rescheduling the Intel SSD DC S3700 Review
by Anand Lal Shimpi on November 6, 2012 5:52 PM ESTThis is a rare situation so I thought I'd post a quick explanation here. There was a miscommunication relating to the exact date and time of the embargo lift on performance data for Intel's SSD DC S3700. As a gesture of good faith to all involved I've pulled the review for now. We'll repost it when the final embargo date/time is determined (I should have that later today). There's nothing wrong with the content, just a misunderstanding about when we're allowed to post it.
If you read the review, nothing will change when we repost it, if you didn't, you'll have to wait a little while longer. The drive is pretty cool, it's just not exactly time to talk about it yet.
Sorry for the confusion.
Update: It's back up!

Good review, indeed. Hope thet Intel is not too problematic with these embargo times - it would be a pity if Anand would not be in the first line reviewing new units (I think he has been the one of the first and best to thorughly review and promote SSD-s).The unit itself rocks, if it is actually able to hold its constant IOPS over a constant, long period - my main grief with some controllers are these darn hiccups.

Sorry to spoil the fun, Anand, but information must be free. So, here's a summary of the review for those who missed it:- Intel is releasing a new SSD called the DC S3700
- It is 100 faster than the DC S3600
- It is targeted at enterprise gamers
- There is a limited run version called the LA S3700 and it comes factory-beadazzled
