Although your assertion 100% supported by intel's marketing numbers,
there are some contradicting numbers out there that show the drives
offering pretty similar performance. For example, look here:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/4902/intel-ssd-710-200gb-review/4 and
you can see that 4k aligned writes are giving quite similar results
(14k iops) even though the 710 is only rated for 2700 iops while the
320 is rated for 21000 IOPS. Other benchmarks also show similar
results.
Actually I said the same thing you're saying : that the two series will
deliver similar performance.
The spec numbers however would be for worst case conditions (in the case
of the 710).
I'm not convinced that those tests were exercising the worst case part
of the envelope.
