  • 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

  • SATA 6 Gbps, Un modèle 60 Go, Performances en écriture
  • Performances en lecture de gros fichiers, Prix trop élevé
  • Si les tests synthétiques tendent à montrer que l'Agility 3 vaut un Crucial m4, il n'en est rien au niveau des transferts de gros fichiers dans la pratique. Le choix fait par OCZ de placer de la mémoire asynchrone dans son SSD ne permet pas à l'Agility de...

  • L’OCZ Technology Agility 3 est un SSD rapide qui tire parti de l’interface Sata 3. Toutefois, ses performances dépendront beaucoup des fichiers que vous aurez à transférer. Mais surtout, il se révèle plus véloce qu’un modèle Sata 2, particulièrement e...

  • Abstract:  Comparatif SSD : bataille à 6 Gbps !Il existe deux domaines où le SSD progresse ces temps-ci : les prix, tout d'abord, commencent à baisser de façon significative, rendant la technologie plus abordable qu'à ses premiers moments. Mais ce qui nous occupe...

  • Abstract:  L'SSD mSATA è sicuramente una scelta interessante, ma solo nella misura in cui il piccolo drive sia veloce quanti i classici modelli da 2,5 pollici. Inoltre il prezzo per gigabyte deve essere comparabile. Pagare di più per un prodotto più lento non ha mol...

  • Abstract:  Il mercato degli SSD vede nuovi modelli praticamente di continuo, e in molti casi si tratta di prodotti con controller SandForce. E per una buona ragione: è una soluzione veloce che dà ottime prestazioni anche con le memorie NAND di qualità inferiore, se ...

  • Ottime prestazioni per i dati non compressi,  Prezzo molto competitivo per un SATA3 di questa portata,  Perde poco spazio per il wear leveling (56GB formattato)
  • Prestazioni molto inferiori se utilizzato per archiviare dati multimediali,  RAISE disattivato
  • A seconda dei casi l'Agility 3 può essere una scelta sbagliata o vincente. Per questo ho esposto per sommi capi le sue caratteristiche, in modo tale che ognuno possa valutare vantaggi e svantaggi traendo le proprie conclusioni. A mio avviso nel taglio da...

  • Al termine della nostra prova sull’ Agility 3 possiamo affermare che le performance della nuova unità OCZ ci hanno pienamente soddisfatto e sicuramente rappresentano un netto balzo in avanti per la fascia mainstream a 6GBps. Come si evince dai benchma...

  • Districarsi nella scelta di un SSD non è mai un compito facile: il controller, l'interfaccia di collegamento, il modello delle celle di memoria utilizzate, così come la capacità ed il costo, sono fattori molto importanti da tenere in considerazione dur...

  • ziehen. Klar ist: die Agility 3 keine günstigere Vertex 3, deren Leistung lediglich etwas heruntergeschraubt wurde. Zwar wird der Datendurchsatz durch das etwas langsamere ONFI-NAND-Interface gebremst, dennoch erhält man beim Kauf dieser SSD ein sehr ...
