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

The bar for TLC SSDs was set by Samsung in 2012 and frankly that bar was set very high. As a company that develops everything in-house, Samsung has a massive advantage when it comes to new technologies because its controller and NAND teams can collaborate...
The OCZ Trion 100 will win or lose in the market based on where its street price goes after launch. For its targeted market, the OCZ Trion 100 is a strong performer that should tick all the right boxes. If we showed anything here today, it's that at least...

Back at FMS 2014, all of the SSD vendors I talked to were all working on some sort of TLC NAND based product. Touting the cost benefits and the growing entry level market, everyone had something on their roadmaps. While TLC NAND has taken a lot longer tha...
The Trion 100 series is the lowest cost entry-level SSD offered by OCZ and it features an all Toshiba design inside with TLC NAND Flash memory. Our performance numbers showed that the drive had solid read performance, but the write performance was a litt...

If OCZ Storage Solutions pushes the price down to sub Reactor levels and truly targets the entry level user we would get behind it. The performance is low in all workloads but still higher than what hard drives offer. The price is the real key here. OCZ...
The truth is that I have mixed feelings about the Trion series 100, but in all fairness I am a power user. I want the best performance at all times. Read performance for the Trion series is excellent, but if you copy an ISO or .MKV worth a couple of GBs...
