gotta have one

 

[pbrigido]

Bootable? Or is this a non issue now with newer PCIe SSDs?

 

[mouse24]

Don't worry guys, its only almost $2 Per GB... But I guess if you need them, you need them.

Hmmm little high priced right now. Just bought the Asus RAIDR, like it, but it doesn't offer those speeds! Hmmmmm

 

[2Be_or_Not2Be]

Who exactly is buying these OCZ drives? Their consumer line has garnered quite the bad reputation for reliability over the years, so who is trusting their so-called "enterprise" line is any better? Especially when you can get enterprise drives w/amazing performance like the Samsung XS1715, an ultra-fast NVMe PCIe SSD up to 1.6TB. Dell is putting them into their massive PowerEdge R920; I don't know who is using OCZ drives in the enterprise.

I agree 2Be_or_Not2Be I owned 3 OCZ drivers, and 2 failed within a year of buying. OCZ did replace them, and to this day one sits on the shelf, another is used for 2 games, but backups are run monthly of it. I have NO faith in their products. Switch to a Samsung and it's been running strong for over a year. of course, this is now just a "programs" drive, since buying my RAIDR.
Although lately, I don't put much faith in Samsung's tech, since I have a TV and Home Theater that are both giving me issues, and the home theater is only a few months old... been serviced by Samsung under warranty, but still has issues. =/

Definitely. The original Revo, Revo3 and this drive are all bootable.

 

[dgingeri]

They make those too pricey. What happened to making stuff for us regular folk? Do I have to go hunt down a Plextor M6e now?

Must sell kidney.... Must have speed....

Must sell kidney.... Must have speed....

If you have to sell a kidney to get this thing, skip it for now. The uber-speeds of this thing won't be noticeable even during most gaming sessions with large MMO's like Tera Online.

 

[cst1992]

The speeds of SSD's are now reaching old RAM speeds. At this rate, this'll make RAM obsolete, and startup/shutdown instant.

 

[Klangfarben]

Am I missing something here? I purchased an OCZ Revodrive 3 X2 Max IOPS 960GB PCI SSD 3 years ago that has the same specs. Besides the price, I can't see anything different from this newer offering. I'm not sure why anyone would consider this over the Samsung or Micron PCI SSD offerings.

OCZ went out of business last year - how are they still making drives???

OCZ was bought and is now owned by Toshiba.

Toshiba bought their SSD assets.

Need to win the lotto so I can put two of those 960GB's in raid 0

 

[mapesdhs]

I own more than 30 OCZ drives, never had a problem with any of them. People
keep banging on about ancient historical fw issues. For grud's sake move on;
even Intel had issues at one point, or has everyone forgotten their bricked 8MB
problem?

Even now with so many newer models out, the Vertex4 and Vector are excellent SSDs.

Can't wait to see real world tests compared to the SATA III RAID0 SSD's you tested.
