The SSD Review published a review on the Adata Premier SP550 SSD (240GB)

A quote from the article:
Early last month we reviewed Adata's newest SATA 6Gb/s contender in the enthusiast market segment, the XPG SX930. Utilizing a JMicron controller and premium MLC NAND, it delivered good performance at a decent price point. Today we are going to shift gears and take a look at their latest entry level SATA 6Gb/s SSD, the Premier SP550 (http://thessdreview.us7.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=3d9b6193ffd32dd60e84fc74b&id=1a6e90748c&e=312ec141fb) . The Premier SP550 (http://thessdreview.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3d9b6193ffd32dd60e84fc74b&id=fedca95c1f&e=312ec141fb) is the first retail product we have come across with the Silicon Motion SM2256 controller since our initial preview back in February (http://thessdreview.us7.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=3d9b6193ffd32dd60e84fc74b&id=fe87e69156&e=312ec141fb) . Furthermore, it boasts SK Hynix TLC NAND, which is also a first for us. We are hoping to see an improvement in the SM2256's performance now that the firmware has been finalized, so today's results may be quite interesting to see. Can the Premier SP550, utilizing this new controller and TLC combo, deliver? Let's find out.
