The editors didn't like
Availability may be an issue at this price.
Higher than average 4k max latency
Pricey
Read speeds (and other benchmarks) were not quite as impressive
Higher-end Vector drive with longer warranty cost just a little more at time of review
Price per GiB is a little high currently
Warranty is only for three years
Minor price premium
Nothing worth mentioning at this price point.
Too expensive
3year warranty
More expensive than comparable drives
Not as fast as other high-end drives (which are more expensive
Though)
Expensive enthusiastlevel product
OCZ Vector offers fiveyear warranty
Slower write speed on the 128GB version
Price is competitive but hardly enough to differentiate it over creme of the crop models.
fantastic sequential performance, equally strong with incompressible and compressible data, 4k IOPS performance is very strong,
A lot of competition from the likes of Samsung, Kitguru says: Excellent all round performance and another high point for OCZ this year, Rating: 9.0, Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11, Share, Facebook, Twitter, Google +, Stumbleupon, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Tags
OCZ have a lot riding on their new Vertex 450 SSD, and it scores very closely to the market leading Vector drive which we tested late last year. OCZ have clearly been tweaking their latest firmware, showing excellent all round performance in both incompre...

Writing the conclusion was a bit challenging for the OCZ Vertex 450 256 GB. The performance is good, as the combination of the slightly lower-clocked Barefoot 3 controller and 20 nm memory works well and provides consistent performance over time. It's...
we have to say, that we're quite surprised, how well a job the engineers at OCZ did Comparing the Vertex 460 to the Vertex 4 shows that the new drive is a little slower than the predecessor, concerning random throughput but on the other hand, when it com...
When OCZ contacted us to say they had a new SSD ready for launch and it was a Vertex drive we couldn't have expected the product we received. Why? Well mainly because this is very much a Vector drive in all but name and a minor controller clock speed twea...
Abstract: OCZ's newly released Vertex 450 SSD is a solid top-tier performer. It's not quite as fast as the company's top-of-the-line Vector, but it's close, and certainly fast enough for the average user. At around a buck a gigabyte it's also good deal in a fast...
Good overall performance, Installation bracket provided, Inhouse developed controller and firmware
Slightly disappointing performance on Iometer, Priced a tad too closely to the Vector
With the Vertex 450, OCZ is slowly but surely achieving its goal of offering only SSDs with in-house developed controllers. The rationale behind such a move is to distinguish itself from the increasingly crowded SSD marketplace.Furthermore, being dependen...
Excelente rendimiento en todos los benchmarks, Bajo consumo, Buen precio, Garantía de 3 años en Argentina
Nada que destacar
Como cualquier SSD en el mercado el OCZ Vertex 450 256GB se destaca por sus altas velocidades, muy superiores frente a un disco duro convencional, y pese a no ser el más rápido de los SSDs que pasaron por nuestro laboratorio, garantizará al usuario altas ...
Después de analizar una serie de equipos poco potentes y que incluían como unidad de almacenamiento un disco sólido, he de decir que los discos mecánicos se han quedado solo para el almacenamiento. Las ventajas de los discos solidos son concluyentes y su...
El OCZ Vertex 450 ofrece un rendimiento excepcional tanto en escritura como lectura gracias a la combinación de la controladora Indilinx Barefoot 3 M10 con las memorias MLC de Micron. Podemos encontrar a la venta los modelos OCZ Vertex 450 con capacidades...
Abstract: El Barefoot mas reciente. La adquisición de Indilinx fue un paso importante para OCZ, ya que dio al fabricante de SSD su propios productos en lugar de tener que depender de SandForce o Marvell para los circuitos mas vitales. Hemos visto de lo que es capaz...
