Speedy drive, my win7 overall performance test went from a six.7 (Kingston SSDnow drive, 64gig) to a 7.two. Visually I really do not see an distinction in boot occasions and such.Straightforward installation and image burning so hardly any time in installing this drive into my laptop (HP 6910P)Very good price tag with 20% discount and then ุ.00 rebate. 贫.00 at the end of it all.NewEgg free of charge shipping and fast delivery as well. Decent price 鳊 following sale price tag and ุ.00 rebate, even though I am not keen on the American Express rebate card, I'd rather have a check...) Had the SSD Drive operating for three days and then got a Media Failure. Oh my goodness had been the damaging comments appropriate?Reformatted HD and redid the image and running ok appropriate now. I have used OCZ memory items for years with no difficulties but we'll see how this goes. I chosen this drive purely upon price tag. We'll see if it's a case of you get what you spend for.I will update this overview in one particular month or upon the next failure, which ever comes initial.I can say that I like the characteristics Win7 has. The image creation/restoral disc creation worked exactly as they must. I'd recommend that style of replacement/upgrade. Just have to keep in mind to burn those image discs!NewEgg demands to ease up on the automatic censorship. (could not use the contraction we all text with for Oh My Goodness) NewEgg deemed it improper and unsuitable)But nevertheless Incredibly happy with NewEgg pricing and service.

None SeriouslyPerhaps Price Speed 140 sequential study 120 write utilizing ATTO as specified by OCZ.Known as tech support and was told the slow speeds were due to possessing cloned from a challenging drive. I followed their instructions and erased drive. Their tools for this did not work! Had to use their second method which requires downloading third celebration application, burning a bootable CD and then working with that to erase. Reformatted and ran ATTO once again. NO Alter! I have attempted almost everything I can feel of (different drivers. updated firmware and so forth. and yes I am employing AHCI.) Still no modify in speed! Tech assistance is useless. Right after ten hours of functioning on this no joy. Keep clear of this one particular! As you can see by other evaluations right here, the response is "Fill out a help ticket" and wait.From the details I have gathered it seems that OCZ has changed chip specs and this is adversely affecting these drives. They are not forthcoming in letting folks know this and continue to industry the drive as if nothing changed! I have been building PCs for more than 20 years and I hate it when organizations publish specs that are untrue and are not held accountable.

This drive has breathed new life into my three year old laptop. Absolutely will let me squeak one more two years out of it. None. Caught it on sale and right after the MIR the drive was only 货! Had to truly spend attention to my CPU temps immediately after the SSD and ram upgrade. The proccesser will run wide open indefinitely when applying updates, program installs, encoding....

It seems to run pretty snappy. I'm an OSX user. I don't know if this has something to do with the horrid benchmark outcomes I'm getting from the drive, but I'm in make contact with with OCZ in hopes of working out the problem. Here are my final results from XBench:Sequential Uncached 4K Write - 156.13 MB/secUncached 256K Write - 135.75 MB/secUncached 4K Study - 18.51 MB/secUncached 256K Study - 149.80 MB/secRandomUncached 4K Create - 105.24 MB/secUncached 256K Write - 145.90 MB/secUncached 4K Study - 17.08 MB/secUncached 256K Read - 167.44 MB/secAs you can see, nothing right here is anyplace close to the 𞵈MB/s the drive is supposed to be capable of. This is my first SSD and while it's nonetheless a lot quicker than the tough drive that was in here previously, I feel disappointed and a little confused with the benchmark. I'll update this evaluation when I get word from OCZ.

Screaming fast SSDs. So far we have a handful of that are functioning great in Dell Optiplex and Precision desktops. We had to RMA five of 9 drives that we purchased, all 5 of the "problem drives" have been installed in Dell Latitude D630 laptops."no primary boot device identified" was the error we kept getting with these drives in the D630 laptops.One of the other 4 was installed in a Dell Precision laptop (about four years old) and it too failed with constant blue screens. Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are sorry for the troubles. Some laptops (especially older models) need to have BIOS updates to reliably run an SDD drive. We will be satisfied to look into your application, and advise you on our help forums attainable at the link under. Please post in the Flash/SSD section for assistance.

Incredibly fast These drives are completely unreliable in laptops period. I second sleep/hibernate difficulties stated previoulsy. I have not tried shutting down/restarting just about every time I use and need to not have to. I am on firm 1.32 and it does nothing at all distinct so don't believe OCZ. I purchased two vertex two 60gb at the very same time, in the similar laptop each bricked inside three months. Had a coupon and so took a chance on an Agility two 120gb in a distinct laptop, very same outcome. Absolutely unreliable and unacceptable. Read all of the negative testimonials on all Agility two and Vertex two drives and they are ALL THE Very same...bricked in a few months. I feel the good evaluations are largely from desktop customers. My rma in a desktop appears to do quite well six months and nonetheless to afraid not to backup just about every time I use it? These drives go into panic mode and cannot be recognized...search. OCZ is turning and burning reset returns from RMA I would bet my home on it. Possibly a sandforce situation and not OCZ, I don't care NOT LAPTOP Prepared! Exciting comment whilst looking for troubles "why on earth would you get an ssd from a corporation that abandoned ram production due to reliability issues" Touche'!

Incredibly quickly3.5 drive bay attachment is included Died in three weeks. Would boot and stay active for anyplace from five-15 minutes and then crash. The LED light would turn from green to a solid red. The packaging is a tiny ridiculous as well. They cram everything into a box that's barely bigger than the drive itself. It's so tight that the box is physically bowed out in the middle. This is a con for me mainly because newegg shipped this in a fundamental envelope with hardly any packaging. I know SSD's are supposed to have a big shock tolerance, but come on, this is UPS we are talking about :p This is my first obtain with OCZ. I went with them due to the fact my pals stated OCZ is top the way with SSD's, but after reading other reviews it sounds like this is a quite Frequent dilemma. Doubt I'll ever get something from them once more. Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are extremely sorry for the problem. Please visit our help link beneath and create a help ticket to arrange for a replacement drive. Our assistance employees will be delighted to help you.

It was super fast and booted windows to the logon screen in 2-4 seconds on common. Only had it for two months then Bios recorded no obtainable drives. Tried it on all my other computers and they read the similar issue. It BSOD'd out of now exactly where then died immediately. Feel like my money was wasted. Great if it hadn't died so quickly, specially for a computer that is turned off at night.

Comment:
Really, truly super rapidly. I didn't realize how fast it was till it died and I had to switch in a mechanical drive.Dead quiet. Naturally.Great GB/$ ratio.Comes with a sticker. "My SSD is More rapidly Than Your HDD!" Ran flawlessly for three weeks, then I came in one morning to a BSOD. Drive does not show up in BIOS at all - tried it on two diverse machines. It is fully dead.Half and egg for OCZ and half an egg for Newegg - Newegg wouldn't take it back mainly because I no longer had the UPC (had to send it in for the rebate), so I'm stuck operating with OCZ assistance, even though I'm within Newegg's 30-day return window. I'm sure I'll get a replacement from OCZ, but now I'm wary of working with it.Newegg: some flexibility in your RMA policy in the name of customer service would advantage you in the long run. Had to send in the UPC for the rebate. It's a sensible explanation.

This difficult drive is amazing quickly. I can't stand regular tricky drives any longer right after working with this. I haven't purchased my second one particular but, but I intend to quickly. Not only is the SSD outstanding, but so is OCZ support. I had to RMA the challenging drive following a week, but I submitted a ticket and it was approved the same day. I got incredibly busy and didn't have the time to mail out the drive(the post office needs you have time right here) and sent it out a month soon after the deadline. They nevertheless honored the RMA and I received my new drive back within a week of sending it in. It failed after a week, but see pro's. OCZ has generally had the ideal assistance I have knowledgeable.

Comment:
Wonderful overall performance when it was working. Only lived two and half months. Now I've got to get a replacement and OCZ has been slow with offering an RMA. Have had to use and older smaller SSD. You can't use WHS pictures to restore the technique so I get to rebuild the entire setup. Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are sorry for the issue. Our support staff will get you taken care of as swiftly as doable.Thank you

Comment:
Particularly rapidly SSD efficiency on par with most major end drives. NONE At present I did have issue with current "newest" firmware not getting compatible with my Intel Raid driver software program... Bummer

Comment:
Extremely swift. It is really surprising on what possessing your OS on a SSD truly means, but it indicates your computer moves as fast as you. Menus open up when you want them to. Tabs slide when they need to, anything feels like a toned, fast, and lighting-quickly machine. This SSD is an unbelievable upgrade. Forget overclocking and RAM timings, to get a real and tangible benefit of speed out of your personal computer, get a SSD. You'll be amazed. Quite pricey.The offered 3.five inch adapter is a good touch, even so it doesn't fit like a normal three.five drive in my Mini p180 with side mounting. That's ok, simply because being a SSD you can just tape/zip tie it in. SSDs are the next major shake up in Computer technologies. They will replace traditional HDD soon sufficient here, but you can have the future appropriate now.

Comment:
Blows a mechanical HD out of the water, boot time has been drastically lowered and responsiveness has enhanced exponentially. I could not get it mounted correctly in my Antec 900 II case. SSDs are definitely the future.

Comment:
Rapid, excellent tools and support forums. At times you can hear a slight higher-pitched electronic noise when does sustained writes/reads... have seen this with other SSDs as properly. Not an situation with operating in quiet locations or presenting although. Just at times annoying. Below normal use it's silent.

Comment:
Light, with three.two' kit, Quick and Quickly Effectively, no. Good SSD, make my XP boot time much less than 15sec and my win 7 64bit ultumate boot time at 27 sec.very great exp. with a number of apps.

Comment:
The box is packaged neatly. More bracket for three.5" Newegg send me a 115 GB version of it, immediately after format usable space 107 GB. Drop a few GB over manufacture engineering - no huge deal. But you dropped Transfer rate to max read 𞴋 MB/s instead of 285MB/s, I know you switch item and attempting to deceive dumb customers. Your tech even attempting to brainwash me with the phrase " Up To 285 MB/s". Well I bought the precisely same drive 2 weeks prior and thats the benchmark I've comparing to on the similar G.D. machine. UP TO MY A5S Contacting OCZ, submit a ticket, wait 6 days for a acknowledgement, then 7 more days of internet dialogue. Cannot return for refund, they want to RMA it. I am down 赨 and three weeks in, still NO SSD to use. WILL Never Contemplate OCZ Once again Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are sorry that you are upset, and we would like to help address your concerns.

I am confused how people today are rating this drive. This is by far the finest upgrade I have purchased in years. It is super fast. And the guy with the Mac, ya, that is why you have horrible benchmarks. I ran the benchmark from cpubenchmarks.com and got 2038. It beat ALL other SSD in their list, including the C300 񢉝). I like thes Agility two Definitely none. Opps, I have 1. People today ought to discover how to use SSD's (research) just before posting. Your giving an outstanding product a negative view. If you set up/configure effectively, you will be amazed

Comment:
Extremely very rapid. When you personal one of these you will under no circumstances install an operating process on a common SATA challenging drive once more. My windows loads in 7 seconds (Win 7, right after bios menu). None ideal now, would love to be capable to afford a 1 tb drive. Do your investigation. You need to have to optimize your operating system for it to perform adequately with a SSD. For instance these drives need to not be defragmented, that needs to be turned off. Also indexing and superfetch need to be turned off. Run this drive like it is supposed to be run, and you should have no troubles. Very good luck.

Comment:
Fastest, ideal priced SSD bar none ! Price Acquire it. Dont waste time nor cash buying about via other Chinese garbage.

Comment:
The speed is good. My program boots up quite promptly and so far I've had no complications with the drive. It was a great deal and it was absolutely worth it. There is a lot of speak about drives crashing quickly. My drive's been running for more than three months now ྸǝ) and I don't seem to have any complications. SSDLife shows that it's wholesome and estimates it will final me close to 20 years. From my experience it's a good drive for a fantastic value. Hopefully that doesn't change.

Comment:
Extremely quick drive. Windows 7 64 ultimate installed with no issues and loads in 15-20 Seconds! Outlook 2007 loads in 2 seconds! Media Center loads in three seconds! Drive size is far more than adequate for boot drive and programs. I got a 2nd a single for my laptop. Now it rocks also! Not finding this drive sooner! A word about price tag. I have read so many evaluations of SSDs where men and women are lamenting about the value. Way back when, in the early 90s, I remember paying 񘠄 for my laptop or computer. Then when I went to upgrade the tough drive it expense 跌 for a 120MB (not GB) drive. So I appear at this as a genuine bargain, particularly for this level of efficiency!

Fast Died immediately after 2 weeks. Does not metter how quickly the HDD, if it dies in 2 weeks it is [beep]. It is like incredibly quickly vehicle without breaks.. Ride is pleasant but short.
