The OCZ RevoDrive X2 is the fastest single SSD product you can install in your system. It is almost inconceivable that it’s also one of the easiest RAID products to install as well. Anyone looking to keep their case clutter down and still have the p...
The OCZ RevoDrive X2 is one of the fastest storage options available and isn't much more expensive than a standard SSD of the same capacity. However a lack of TRIM support, lower IOPS with tiny files and its limitation to desktop PCs means we’d prefer ...

Especially regarding sequential throughput rates the OCZ Revo Drive X2 impressed us. When reading 128 KByte blocks there was a peak in throughput performance of an astonishing 933 MByte/s. On average sequential write and read performance are 671 MByte/...
