OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-240G 2.5" MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Cons:* High price-per-GB compared to spinners* Rebates still suck

Pros:* Speed* Low price-per-GB for an SSD
Comment:
This is my first SSD, and didn't even go into my own computer (sadly), but all I can say is "wow."I knew these things were fast by the numbers, but I still wasn't prepared for the performance difference. I put this in a friend's machine as his Windows + Games drive; he went from a 250GB PATA rattling old dinosaur of a drive to this, and the difference is remarkable. Even though his mobo is only SATA-II, this thing is still blazingly fast.It certainly puts my own RAID-0 stripset to shame, especially noticeable on sequential reads (like when loading games, etc).At this price, it's hard to refuse. This will be my next upgrade, I'm sure.

Cons:None I can see in this category

Pros:Great performance for the price6 Gbps interface
Comment:
Got this on sale with rebate for 1$ per GB, which is a great price.The speed is better than the 120 GB model.In Windows 7 the performance is really amazing for the price (no delay in loading applications with my i7).

OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-240G 2.5" MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Cons:None really.

Pros:lots of space for the price on an SSDI liek the colour, not that it really matters much.decently fast, though maybe not the fastest out there.
Comment:
I think this is the bargain drive to get. I got it on sale here for $269.99 and am really happy I did. great storage space for a sata 3 drive, stable (so far) and easy to use. It might not be the fastest SSD on the market but few other drives right now are offering this kind of cost per gig ratio. If you want the fastest move on, but if you want fast and a little more storage this is great. I use it for my steam files only. Works great. that way I can keep my intel drive for allt he other utility programs and boot drive.

OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-240G 2.5" MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Cons:Absolutely no accessoriesDumb firmware update  processRebate - forgetaboutit

Pros:LargeFastCheap
Comment:
I'll start off by saying I'm not a fan of OCZ. I've found their RAM to be crapola. But the price was right for this 240 GB drive and I decided to give them a chance.So far, so good. Be warned; the drive has asynchronous MLC NAND and absolutely no accessories. The Async NAND is a bit slower than the Synchronous but I doubt you'd be able to tell the difference in real world application. Regarding the accessories: No Drive conversion bracket, no screws but a small manual in many languages.You don't download and install the firmware from the OCZ site. You download an app that you run with the non-booted Agility 3. The app goes out to the internet to check if you need firmware and then downloads and installs it if you do. Better hope your boot disk has the drivers for your network card! Don't count on the rebate either. You'll be too old to spend it when/if it arrives. Corporate Canada/America: KNOCK IT OFF WITH REBATES!!!All and all a good, big, cheap drive. It may not be the fastest but it's good enough for me.

Comment:
Works great in my Macbook Pro. Once you have an SSD you can never go back -- probably the single most noticeable upgrade you can do with a notebook.

OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-240G 2.5" MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Cons:- Doesn't come with 3.5 in drive bay adapter.- Doesn't take full advantage of SATA 3 capabilities.- Didn't reach anywhere near the advertised speeds.

Pros:- SATA 3- Has been reliable so far.- Good alternative to Vertex 3 (if you don't mind the sacrifice in performance)
Comment:
I'm giving this a five star because reliability is a top priority for me when it comes to SSDs. I'm mainly using this drive for Steam games, Office, Photoshop, and other apps which I use often. I haven't had any issues so far, it has been very reliable.My only minor issue with this drive is the performance aspect.I did a benchmark test against my SATA 2 Intel 320 160GB, and the results were not too far off. OCZ claims that the Agility 3 can read "up-to" 525 MB/s and write "up-to" 500 MB/s; however, I didn't get anything near those results in my benchmark tests.It's not that I would notice any real world difference between the actual result and the results advertised so this is only a minor issue for me.Overall, I highly recommend this product. This is a great alternative to the Vertex 3 if you don't mind the sacrifice in performance.
