Odd stutter observed on our batch file write test (possibly due to beta firmware
And also present in the Vertex 3 Pro beta we tested last week)
Performance at lower queue depths could be improved upon
Price (see below)
Expensive
Larger-capacity version of drive is faster overall
Very expensive.
The OCZ Vertex 3 SSD is significantly more expensive than traditional hard drives
The performance on offer from OCZ's Vertex 3 is simply mind-boggling. In the space of a single generation, the speed of the Vertex SSD has jumped by over 90 per cent, leaving OCZ with a drive that runs circles around most of the competition. Sequential...
Abstract: Price per gigabyte is, by far, the biggest factor preventing SSDs from replacing hard drives. If SSDs weren't so darn expensive, we wouln't have any trouble getting past their capacity limitations, because we would be using multiple SSDs in the same ma...
Although the drive we received from OCZ was an engineering sample it still featured their usual level of build quality. A robust casing was present and inside we get a PCB unique to OCZ with the latest SATA 6GB/s drive controller and quality Micron NAN...
Power Consumption The OCZ Vertex 3 has the highest power consumption of all our tested drives. Some might consider this to be an acceptable trade-off performance, though we would have liked to see OCZ squeeze out more performance with the same amount o...
Very fast; Looks great; Easy software for updating firmware; Includes 3.5" bracket,
Firmware cannot be updated if running Windows on same drive

Abstract: Los SSD cada día están mas cerca del usuario medio , sus precios son cada vez mas asequibles, pero quizás aun falte un pequeño empujón porque realmente pagar 150€ por 100GB resulta algo abusivo no obstante el rendimiento que obtenemos será 100 veces mayor...
Rendimiento inigualable, Excelente presentación y estética, 3 años de garantía y soporte, SATA 3
Precio elevado.
Obviamente estamos en presencia de los que hasta ha sido el SSD mas rápido que hemos tenido el gusto de testear. El OCZ Vertex 3 obtuvo los mejores resultados hasta ahora en velocidad de lectura, tiempo de acceso, copia de archivos, etc. Luego de esto ve...
