Sequential read is slower especially at low queue depth
The OCZ Vertex 4 with Indilinx Everest 2 controller delivers good random read, random write, and sequential write performance. Considering the pricing, performance, and the 5-year warranty, the Vertex 4 is certainly a great buy, and it earns the Bjorn3D ...
It should be noted that the launch firmware for the Vertex 4 was revision 1.3.X, and OCZ has since released the 1.4.1.3 update (the firmware utilized in our test sample). Amongst other things this version especially improves the Vertex 4's performance...
Performance, performance, performance. OCZ's support on the firmware side has proven reliable, plus you get a 5 year warranty
Premium priced product, probably worth it though
Given what we saw from the first Everest controller in the Octane last year, we weren't sure what to expect and if the Everest 2 would be able to best the SandForce SF-2281. Those concerns were quickly squelched as the Vertex 4 256GB defeated Kingston...
The OCZ Vertex 4 performed admirably during our testing and was consistently at the top when compare to other 128GB SSD's. The Vertex 4 even managed to come out ahead of some 240GB+ drives in several of the test results. The Vertex 4 showed rock solid sta...
The original Everest controller OCZ used for its Octane SSDs left us disappointed – the 1.13 firmware we reviewed it with was noticeably slower than both Crucial’s M4 and Samsung’s 830 drives. Thankfully, with the Vertex 4 256GB, OCZ has shown us that ...
Tieing up a 24-page roundup in a few lines isn’t easy, especially as the cost of flash memory is currently dropping, meaning that the price of 120 to 128 GB SSDs is changing almost daily, with some manufacturers responding faster than others. Pricing i...
When OCZ acquired Indilinx, there was some skepticism around, as the SandForce-based drives were really starting to come into their own, easily surpassing the 1st-Gen Indilinx Barefoot drives. Head scratching ensued, wondering what OCZ was up to. With ...
OCZ did not disappoint and, did indeed deliver to us a drive with ground breaking performance. The Vertex 4 is a worthy successor to the Vertex 3. The Vertex 4 128GB is very nicely priced at $129.99 and is the only drive I know of offered at that pric...
OCZ continues the Vertex legacy with their latest offering, taking the drive in a different direction with the Indilinx team at their side. Drives originally shipped with firmware 1.3 which left a lot to be desired on the performance side, especially...
