The editors didn't like

  • IOPS at lower queue depths outpaced by Intel 320 Series
  • Asynchronous flash makes it slowerthan vertex 3 in some workload scenarios
  • Street price likely to be on the high side (see below)
  • Speed
  • Compatibility problems with some motherboards
  • Considerably slower with incompressible data
  • Does not include a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter bracket
  • Low results with incompressible data
  • The OCZ Agility 3
  • Though fast
  • Is noticeably slower than other SATA 6Gbps SSDs without being proportionaly cheaper. It's capped at only 240GB
  • Takes a long time to format
  • And doesn't come with a drive bay converter to fit in a place of a 3.5-inch hard d
  • Big slowdowns when writing incompressible data.
  • Some manufacturers offer fiveyear warranty
  • Expensive enthusiastlevel product
  • Lacks 3.5" drive tray adapter kit
  • Only 10% faster than 3 Gbps SSDs
  • Needs SATA 6 Gbps controller to perform best
  • Can not win price/performance
  • None that I found

  • fantastic performance, IOPS performance is still strong, price point is extremely competitive, between £90£100 less than 240GB Vertex 3, 60GB version in this family will have a tempting price to performance ratio,
  • a Stunning drive, with huge storage capacity for under £400. Well worth a shortlist....

  • After thoroughly testing and working with the Agility 3 240GB drive, as well as taking into account its street retail price, we can confidently say that the drive certainly falls into the “mainstream performance” category which OCZ planned it to. Despi...

  • The impact of using cheaper asynchronous NAND varies depending on which aspect of performance you examine. This can lead to somewhat worse performance in some situations, whereas in other scenarios the Agility 3 performs nearly as well as the Vertex 3....

  • Buen rendimiento, sobre todo de lectura, Precio, Retrocompatible SATA3 SATA2, Acelera enormemente el arranque y el rendimiento de todo el sistema, Software de actualización de firmware sencillo y accesible
  • Flojea un poco en la velocidad de lectura, No incluye cable SATA3 certificado, Embalaje muy mejorable
  • El OCZ Agility 3 240Gb es un dispositivo SSD tremendamente rápido Tiene sus carencias, claro, pero por menos de 1€/Gb es de lo mejorcito que podéis encontrar en el mercado actual Acelera enormemente la carga del sistema operativo y los programas prin

  • Velocidad y rendimiento fuera de toda duda, Silencio absoluto; calor casi nulo, ONFi 2.0; chips NAND asíncronos, Soporte TRIM
  • El soporte para SandForce 2281 aún no está del todo depurado,
  • No esperábamos otra cosa respecto a un hardware que con el devenir de los tiempos va mejorando poco a poco. SSD y SATA 6 Gbps es, por definición, una muy buena combinación, por lo que no cabe explicar lo satisfechos que nos deja eso. El rendimiento ha ...

  • Controlador SandForce 2200series, Arranque/apagado más rápido del sistema operativo, y ejecución de aplicaciones, Bajo consumo energético, Pueden empezar a extrañar el ruido del Disco Duro, debido a que no hay sonido alguno producido por este SSD, Buen rendimiento para su segmento mainstream, Soporte TRIM, Compatibilidad con SATA II 3GB/s,
  • No incluye adaptador de 2.5 pulgadas a 3.5, el cual fue necesario para su instalación en nuestro gabinete.
