    Does anybody know? I read on a Dell blog back in June 2011 that they were using the 256gb Samsung’s PM800 MLC which is a first generation SSD. Do you think that it being practically a year later they would be using a more recent drive?

    I doubt they are still using PM800. Probably 470s or even 830s now. The XPS 13 AnandTech reviewed had an 830, so I wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the XPS line shipped with the same.
