Hello, I live in France and I've just bought a brand new Intel X25-M G2 SSD (34 nm, that's what the seller says). I've noticed two strange things about product name : the product name on the ssd and the product name written on the cardboard box are not the same ! And the SSD product name is "odd", I've never seen anything like this. Here are the numbers :
box : SSDSA2MH080G201
ssd : SSDSA2M080G2GN (yes, there is no "H").
There is no plastic spacer, the ssd height is 7 mm. It has the 2CV102G9 firmware.
Is my ssd a real product from Intel ? Is my ssd as good as the others X25M G2 ?

the "H" = high performance as seen here http://download.intel.com/design/flash/nand/mainstream/322296.pdf http://download.intel.com/design/flash/nand/mainstream/322296.pdf
I just rechecked my ssd and I am also missing the "H" I don't want to think I have spent money on a drive that is not high performance.
I hope some one will clear this up soon.

"I just rechecked my ssd and I am also missing the "H" I don't want to think I have spent money on a drive that is not high performance."
I have exactly the same thought... Can someone of the Intel staff answer ?

Same thing here with a 160, any insight would really be appreciated!

Hey everyone,
The best way to tell if you have our newest technology is simply the casing. The new 34nm comes in a silver metallic case. That's the real deal and we only sell the 80GB and 160GB capacities, both high performance.
Enjoy the drives!
