Synchronous memory has many advantages over asynchronous, like longer lifetime, better performances, even a longer period of reliability and data protection. Though many asynchronous memory drives will have higher specifications, the difference really shows in real-world usage, where synchronous will easily wipe the floor with asynch. The SandForce controller together with the latest firmware technology is here to take make sure that these Kingmax modules will provide maximum performance along with all other specifications mentioned above. They support NCQ (Native Command Queuing) and TRIM (performance optimization), DuraWrite (enhances lifetime), and S.M.A.R.T. function to secure the data by 55 bit error correction code.  SMU32 is a basic version, while SMU35 is desktop version they come in versions of 60/120/240/480GB.
