Review: OCZ Vertex 3 240GB SSD - VR-Zone

VR-Zone takes the OCZ Vertex 3 240GB for a test drive - and break some SATA speed limits along the way.

OCZ are really making a name for themselves in the SSD market. I hope the newer Corsair drives will be similar!

i cant wait for the price drop in ssd soon, i plan on upgrading 2 maybe 3 drives. the way your os speeds up once you convert to ssd is amazing.

A 60 GB drive would be great. Right ow I'm hearing too many reports of problems regarding SSD longevity, apparently they are still prone to failures. When I upgrade, I probably won't be getting an SSD as a boot drive, but use one for caching similar to what Intel does with Z68.

Prone to failures? i thought they lasted longer and failed less than an rpm drive. hmm i might have to rethink my plans i cant have my boot drive failing. imo to be honest i still have the same 80gb boot drive in my computer its been there since um 07 lol i should backup and stuff this summer.

Is this for the triple-level-cell NANDS?

It's the same flash used before, so should still be MLC

OCZ Vertex 3 is best SSD for me. Being fully portable and having a SATA interface which enables easy connection to both laptop and desktop configurations is what make it above the rest. I first get one of it after I had read a good review of it from http://www.solidstateharddr... and then made up my mind to get one. The best thing I like it is that it is really fast and portable. And I never regret with choosing it.
