The SM2256-family controller conclusively confirms that it is NOT a rebranded OCZ Trion (either 100 or 150). Those use a Toshiba TC58 controller.

I was assuming that it wasn't but IDK why everyone else was jumping onto conclusions, so I guess I did, too.

That's the same controller as the A-Data SP550 and Mushkin Reactor. Considering the Silicon Motion chip has been licensed to multiple companies I wouldn't be surprised if AMD's design is their own.

ONOTech PCWorld stated it is coming from a company called Galt.  Look at the article link I posted earlier tonight.

Wow, if the 960 isn't expensive might buy two of those, one for my rig the other for my macbook, else just one 480 for my macbook

It might light on fire

Why do you even care

I hope their 120 and 250 beat the shit out of SSD V300Now so it becomes a the absolute best cheapest SSD brand out there

The Mushkin Reactor is cheaper and has MLC... 

And the 850 EVO has 3D TLC and costs the same.

Well it's nice for AMD theme build, also specially if it's priced well.
