Samsung 830 SSD’s GC differs from Intel 320 series AFAIK. Intel 320 does active GC while Samsung 830s do idle GC. Have you tested Samsung 830 SSD with over provisioning ? formated at 100GB,120GB, 200GB, and 240GB capacities ?

It seems that Intel 520 doesn’t have any power loss protection (capactiors) like the Intel 320. The Intel website states: “Enhanced Power Loss Data Protection: No”. This is a show-stopper for me.

Vadim, “End-to-End Data Protection” means it uses checksums when retrieving the data from flash chips. Compression is used, because in 520 Intel uses the SandForce controller and not their own controller like in 320. Good point that it’s the fact, that may spoil the results!
