With respect to the site, yup...it is amazing. Quite frankly if we could get the background over to my site and then replace my forums with this design, The SSD Review would be golden.
With respect to IOMeter, I am not really a fan of a program that doesnt really have backing and hasn't been updated in years quite honestly. I know this won't be the popular answer but it is honest. I understand ones interest in seeing the accurate IOPS under stress and whatnot and I will probably lean that way in the end but right now I am still feeling my way around with other things. I would like to develop a few real life tests and, if you look at the reviews, have utilized a few inconsistently.
Another reason I probably haven't shown IOPS is because, in building the site, I have been trying to appease to the new SSD enthusiast for the most part because I think there is a severe shortage of accurate info out there for the prospective buyer. You already mentioned 'The Manufacturers Bluff' above which hits on exactly as I mean.
I hope the reviews are very easily understood and, for the most part, allow the reader to learn enough to make an honest appraisal if it will suit them.
Anyway..nice chatting and late night so I am off...
Getting ready for CES you know!!!!
