my sec intel ssd, after owning 330 series 240g. After having it for two month in my new build desktop, I finally did a full diagnostic (first 330 I did rt away, but now I trust intel ssd a lot). The interigty test failed on 62%. Without doubting about ssd issue, I put my 520 ssd into the same notebook which I passed test on 330. Test passed on 520 well. Yes, I trust intel ssd this much. And the intel tool lead me to find out my desktop memory issue. One of the four stick of memory is defective. That is cause of 520 test fail. After put in new set of memory, 520 test in my desktop passed as well.
my 520 as ssd benchmark scores best as 780. It's very fast in a matching up system, with good cpu and board. on top of the speed, realiable always first. Intel doesn't fail that. My thumbs up.

Great SSD for the most part. Bench marks are in the normal range for this type of SSD.
The only issue is with this SSD and Intel Rapid Storage on the X79 board. If IRS not updated to version 3.2 then S.M.A.R.T will not work on the SSD which renders part of Intel tool box not working. ALso causes other SSD monitos to not work at all. Also an issue with programs like SSDlife not properly recording the runtimes properly. E.G. mine shows a total run time 894835 hours (102.2 years. Know issue but unable to find a fix for it yet.

You pay for quality and stability for the Intel 520 I bought this because I could not back up my OCZ Revo 2. The downloaded tool from Intel site works well for preventative maintence on the drive. Definitely will buy this again
