35MB/s write? That's kinda disappointing.

For a storage drive...yes that would be.

For an operating system drive where random read's and small writes are the overwhelming majority of operations it's no big deal. And of course, the real benefit of the SSD is nearly instant random access time. Thus, even with this one stat...I'm sure most would be thrilled with this drive in real world usage.

Your right.

It's a speedy little SSD and performs very well.

Although not the fastest by specs, it rates well on most reviews and boasts some pretty impressive numbers when stacked up against some other SSDs with higher specs.

Intel's I/O rates are, or probably were, better that most and this gives them an edge.

Yes, but for the OS the Seq. Write means very little.
Random read & writes are whats important and thats where this lil drive excels.
