OCZ's RevoDrive 350 is a decent value next to rivals by Asus
Mushkin and others
It's easier than dealing with separate SSDs
And it's crazy fast by modern standards.
The editors didn't like
Nothing to mention at the moment.
Low Queue Depth response time and IOPS remains limited by SandForce controllers
Lack of NVMe support translates to greater CPU penalty per IO
240GB model is excessively costly given the specs list it at half the performance
Possible performance issues
High Access Times
Very Expensive
Limited top-end capacity
Price puts it out of reach for many
It's pricey. Not outrageous compared to 2011's RevoDrive 3 X2 and not exactly a bad value
But at $530 the 240GB model costs almost as much as our entire budget box.

Abstract: The world of solid-state drives has reached a state of limbo. We're pretty much at the limit of current SATA technology, and SATA Express will be more of an evolution than a revolution. If you really need some extra horsepower, where do you turn? The new ...

The OCZ RevoDrive 350's sequential read speeds are breathtaking, exceeding 2050 MB/s in some tests. That is around 10% higher then OCZ's specifications for the drive. The sequential write speeds of around 1908 MB/s also exceeds specifications by a wide ma...

I have been a fan of OCZ's RevoDrive series since it first debuted many years ago. Since then OCZ has always made improvements over the previous generation products. With the RevoDrive 350 OCZ has gone with 19 nm low-power Toshiba NAND memory, which of c...
The RevoDrive series is the latest product lineup from OCZ to transition to in-house Toshiba NAND flash, which is just one of many improvements. The RevoDrive 350 sports a new design with full aluminum front-plate and a single PCB solution, giving the uni...
It's been two and a half years since Shawn reviewed the RevoDrive 3 and gave it glowing marks for its outstanding performance. The RevoDrive 350 doubles those speeds in both read and write. As fast as SATA SSDs seem to those used to slow spinning HDD medi...
Abstract: The OCZ RevoDrive 350 is an internal SSD that connects directly to your PC's PCI Express bus. Since it doesn't have the limitations of SATA, a storage device like this can deliver amazingly-fast transfer rates that rival a 4-drive RAID array.The OCZ RevoD...

Looking at OCZ's lineup today, it's become quite apparent that OCZ is looking to position themselves as a manufacturer of high end enthusiast and enterprise SSDs, and with their Vertex, Vector and RevoDrive lines in place in the client side, OCZ has a fai...
