The editors didn't like
Poor overall synthetic performance
Smaller capacities also had a very weak showing during our real-world tests
SLC write cache capacity is deficient compared to competing SSDs
Sustained write speeds are severely crippled compared with competing SSDs
(and some HDDs)
Mixed mode (read + write) IOPS performance is limited and inconsistent
Warranty period shorter t
Write Performance Levels
Bundle
Mediocre random write performance
Write speed drops when SLC cache is full
Does not support hardware based encryption
Price
SLC density in relation to the overall capacity
Performance
Disappointing random write speeds
SanDisk Ultra II performs better overall and is slightly more affordable at some capacities
No in-box accessories or software
Compared with other solid-state drives (not traditional hard drives) on the market the new Trion is among the slowest. The drive also comes with a short three-year warranty and doesn't support encryption

TLC NAND, even with its lower performance, is setting the baseline for the next breed of affordable SSDs so now we will be able to look a step further at 480GB capacities which were never chosen before by the mainstream segment of buyers. Thanks to the ps...

We did set this up as a head-to-head matchup, so we're going to have to declare a winner. Though neither drive blew us away, the victory goes to the OCZ Trion 100. Both drives struggled to match the speeds of much older hardware (like Intel's X25-M) in s...

nice aspect, performance, OCZ Guru software, power consumption, price
OCZ Trion 100 brings another interesting solution to anyone how wants to buy an SSD. The performance offered is in the higher range and the components of the drive are the most modern. The TLC NAND flash modules have the highest density on the market and...

Good pricepergigabyte ratio, 3 year warranty, ShieldPlus warranty program, SSD Guru software, DEVSLP support
Performance lags behind the competitors, No hardware encryption support
The Trion 100 is clearly a budget drive. And it is not just because of its pricing, but its performance also lags behind others on the market. It is often the slowest among the drives we have tested. We can overlook high IO and high queue depth result...
So as expected being an entry level drive from OCZ, the Trion 100 isn't exactly a chart topper in most of our tests. I was surprised to see that it did perform well in a few of our tests though. That said it really fell on its face in some of the write s...

Mediocre random write performance, Write speed drops when SLC cache is full, Does not support hardware based encryption
While not the fastest or most feature packed SSD to come through the 'Labs, OCZ's Trion 100 delivers a lot of bang for your buck. Powered by Toshiba's new TC58 controller, the Trion 100 uses A19nm TLC NAND to provide an easy and affordable way for for con...
Great read performance, 3-year ShieldPlus warranty, High endurance rating
Write performance could be better, No accessories or software included
When it comes to performance the Trion 100 competes with many high-performance solid state drives in terms of reads, but falls short in write performance. In many of our tests the drive actually under-performed its advertised write speeds. This is likely...
Both the ARC 100 and Vector 180 ended up being very good solid state drives with impressive IOPS performance so although the Trion 100 was never marketed as a model with a higher standing compared to those two (actually it was always market...
OCZ has a virtual smorgasbord of drives to offer the consumer. Are you in need of an enterprise solution? Check. Enthusiast level performance? Check. Value oriented SSDs? Check and mate. While at first glance, offering another value oriented drive seems...
