Are these sandforce based or is this Intel's own controller like the 320 series?

Yes, the 330 series uses a SandForce SF-2281 controller.

Ah. I dunno...been reading reviews on newegg...BSODs with the 520 series, apparently. I wonder what these cheaper drives will be like?

[citation][nom]unksol[/nom]Um.... what does under 30 have to to with it? yea. budget. like everything. overpaying for an SSD is what it is. there's no real need for them. buy memory, use sleep mode. if you're over paid and have money to burn sure. get one[/citation]
There are much worse ways to waste money. Buying a 120GB SSD will give you a blazing fast system for many years (and possibly for multiple rigs).
