19nm Toggle-Mode NAND Flash by Toshiba = MLC

Thanks for this review. Overall not a bad SSD and a worthy upgrade for anyone using older sandforce based drives, but not top of the chain either. I read that drives based on this controller tend to keep good performance when they fill up, whereas this is not always the case for other controllers. In the end, pricing is everything and if the price is aggressive enough it could do well.
