Incredibly rapid with mac OS 10.six.five. Tested it out for a couple of weeks and receiving great bench speeds and efficiency working with Video editing and photo editing. OS boots up quick. Maintain this just as an OS program operating drive. When I am accomplished with operating I shop my crucial function on a RAID5. None yet! I hope this thing doesnt die like I have noticed some other people post.

Quickly. Moved from a 250 Seagate to this drive and my ideal boot time went from 51 seconds to 23 seconds. none so far

Good read speeds! Utilizing it as a boot disk, it boots up Win7 login screen in < 10 sec when the bios screen completes. Not the best in it's class but it's significantly far more cheap than numerous other SSD's with the very same capacity. I haven't tried out any of the more rapidly 鵓R롹W) SSD's but this a single is Substantially Much quicker than a common 5400񴠐rpm HDD. The overall performance jump is very noticable, and applications load a lot quicker.Also, with out the need to have for a motorized arm used to read data from a disk, this hard drive presents Much lower power usage for better overall performance, which is constantly a plus. It also stays cooler than my other HDD's. ____________________________________________THIS DOES NOT COME WITH A two.five" to 3.five" DRIVE BAY ADAPTER!!!If you plan on setting up this in a desktop, I would recommend purchasing an aftermarket adapter, or better but, look into the "Agility two" series OCZ delivers. They include things like a desktop drive bay adapter, have greater R/W speeds, and it is a newer product with far better evaluations on Newegg. If you want a solid step up from HDD's for a laptop, but you don't want to invest extra for the ideal of the very best in create and read speeds, this is undoubtedly the way to go.

I'm liking the new drive load occasions ! a dramatic raise in speed! rates 7.1 on win7x64.! I purchased 2 of these(shocker value) to run in raid, but didn't I split the load 1 plan at a time seemed to function good set up is easy but the tweeks are insaine! I will be pleased if they last the three years. we will see. as they have only been in about three+ hrs now so to soon to inform. only true con is that they don't come with anything, no cd, no 3.five" adaptors(really!! for the cash we pay for these the adaptors ought to be thrown in at least!!!!) and newegg! shame on you for shipping them in a flimsy bubble bag! even a smaller box is better! drives are one particular of these factors ups would drop! I dont oc or will need the fastest computer! so thats why I went for these, proper in the middle efficiency sensible.my rig:asus m4a88td V-EVO/USB3AMD PHEMON II 945 three.0GHZ2X XFX5750 IN XFIRE8GB ADATA 10666񳄥OCZ MOD Extreme 600WT PSUtwo OCZ OCZSSD2-1AGT60GASUS CD/DVD BURNER1 WD BLUE 250 Gb HDD1 WD GREEN 500Gb HDD1 WD BLUE IDE 250 HDD

a considerable step up from a regular 7200 rpm drive capacity is rather lacking on the other hand thats what i get for being an early adopter and i was unable to find a windows 7 64bit block eraser prog on there internet siteso i will end up losing write overall performance because this drive don't assistance trim i suppose its possible to uncover a generic tool to restore previously utilized blocksonly removed an egg simply because they had the tool for all other version of windows in addition to win 7 64

Good !! As per earlier review I made an error it's been 60 DAYS no rebate yet, it says It's been authorized, Whats up OCZ ?????????????? Was perfect when I purchased memory last year?????????????????? Knocked off an egg for the rebate procedure Great SSD four THE Funds,OCZ Entirely ROCKS WITH THIS DRIVE !! WISH IT WAS A 1 TB..

Rapid – specifically compared to a single mechanical drive. Windows 7 x64 Ultimate loads and closes so much more rapidly than when I used platter drives. Application programs start off practically instantly. Somewhat affordable soon after rebate -- especially for an SSD. Died just immediately after one particular year of use. I started randomly receiving BSOD every single couple of days till a single day my computer stopped being responsive. This lasted for a minute till I got a BSOD. Upon reboot BIOS could no longer recognize the drive. I use this drive in my primary desktop machine. Efficiency is drastically greater than a single mechanical drive and noticeably better than a couple of old 160GB Seagate’s I was making use of in RAID . OCZ was fantastic about issuing an RMA when it failed, but the entire course of action from the time the drive died till I got a new a single took a tiny over 3 weeks. I dinged this drive 3 stars for failing immediately after only a single year of use, but added 1 back since OCZ did send me a brand new 1 with no any hassles other than the RMA method itself.

Got this even though they were on sale for 120 each. Definitely worthy of that price. The specs are largely precise according to tests I did. Of course, remember speed will drop on transfers of huge quantities of files opposed to transfers of significant files No mounting brackets. There wasnt a lot to the box... fortunately there had been other items in my box so UPS couldnt ruin it so easily.Size sucks, but thats expected. Adequate room for Mass impact, windows 7, and WoW though. Dont bother putting this on an XP machine. The overall performance gains wont be noticeable.Also, take into account the speed of the machine you are employing it on is a enormous factor. If your RAM or CPU cant hold up with disk queue, then it is no longer the bottleneck, and you wont get the full effect of the SSD. I noticed Core2duo two.13ghz with 667FSB was quickly overloaded when loading something complicated. Youll want at least a C2Quad 800mhzFSB

Comment:
No noise, Quickly! Not positive about the longevity of the drive. First one died in less then a year and was replaced by OCZ with a Vertex. The rates are coming down on these drives now which is good to see. When i bought my initial 1 i believe i paid around 赼

Comment:
Great speed. Died following 11 months. It is excellent likelihood to meet OCZ's buyer support.

Comment:
Boot and reboot occasions quite rapid.Installs/Uninstalls applications rapidly.Runs apps quickly.All in all, a quite fast drive. Died a slow death in beneath a year. I purchased this drive in April 2010 for use in a Macbook.Immediately after a month or two it was acting up so I believed the Mac just didn't like it. I moved it to my Dell Studio and it seemed fantastic for yet another couple of months (and a firmware update).Then.... bam! Bluescreen city in Windows 7 64-bit Specialist. Numerous reinstalls and wipes later and it just got worse to the point that I had to send it back for RMA.The RMA approach was painless. Thank you OCZ! I'm hoping this isn't a continuous problem and is rather exclusive.Time will tell... Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are really sorry for the problem. Please go to the link below and create a assistance ticket to make contact with our staff and arrange for a replacement drive. We will be pleased to help you.

Really High performance Died right after a few hours Installed Win 7 x64 and was running fine for a few hours. Then method crashed and SSD could not be identified in BIOS. I'm certain the OCZ folks will take care of this, but this was a lot of perform only to have the SSD die.Reading from the collective reviews I come across a lot of other men and women with similar complaints. I'd say they have some QA/QC issues. Manufacturer Response:Hello, we aplogize for the problem. Please RMA through Newegg for fastest service. Your replacement drive will perform out fine for you.Thank you

Exceptional read/write instances. WEI score jumped from 5.9 ƒ.5 " 320 GB 7200rpm laptop drive) to 7.three. I did a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and it installed it in about 15-20 minutes! Apps load instantly and with no hesitation. No noise. Far better battery. The list goes on.... I bought the unit when it was on sale for 贗 (with ฤ mail in rebate) and from what I hear, it takes like four months to get that money back. :( Truly for the funds, this is one particular of the very best drives you can get. Acquire it!

Comment:
I picked this up @ Newegg for 贗 on a shell shocker. Operating Win7 on this as a boot drive and all apps etc on a pair of Western Digital Black in RAID 1. The boot up time for windows (past the bios stuff) is only a couple of seconds :)Bang for the buck this is rad. OCZ forums has lots of OS tweaks listed. IMO not really needed on Win7 as every little thing just works out of the box. None

Comment:
Rapidly while it lasted Died soon after 6 months of extremely light use. BIOS won't even see the device. Now I will have to come across out how great OCZ's RMA method is. Backup your information often due to the fact SSD is a relatively immature technology.

Comment:
Speed and ease of use. Significantly like the final few evaluations on here, mine died soon after ten months of light-moderate use as my OS/APP drive. Randomly, my Win7 64bit machine froze, rebooted, and the BIOS would not detect the drive.Posted on the OCZ assistance forums and they walked me by way of performing a destructive flash of firmware on it and that brought the drive back to life. OCZ tech support understands client service and was extremely patient with me even though working out the situation. I am incredibly pleased with the assistance and glad this was resolved swiftly. it's a bummer that i had to reinstall win7 and my apps, but it takes place... (my data was backed up)If the drive final yet another year, I'll be content. At that time, I will think about another OCZ SSD depending on their critiques and concerns... Possibly i must jump to Intel.oh and Often BACKUP YOUR Data!!!!

Comment:
Booted Windows 7 Ult 64-bit extremely rapidly! Been using for four months and has been absolutely nothing but I joy to use. And my OCZ Rebate card came in the mail just a handful of days ago. Even if you are just operating the OS and your main APPs on this drive I saw I massive improvement in access instances and load instances over my 7200 RPM Drive even on a two.8ghz quad, 4gb of ram and 280 GTX! None! In no way obtaining a non-SDD yet again!

Comment:
quickly, quiet, power saving stopped working after 4 months - no longer recognized in bios. all these seconds saved in boot up time and more rapidly system load occasions gone up in smoke due to downtime from unreliable garbage. check the ocz forum and see how many circumstances of unrecognized SSD issues. rma procedure requires you to give comprehensive systems specs and requires a while to respond. e-mail correspondence asks the very same questions over and more than. what firmware version, what cpu, motherboard, and so on. why not just replace the piece of garbage and save the frustrated consumer some time? I would have preferred a DOA drive than a single that fails following I load a bunch of data. Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are really sorry for the issue. We are sorry for any redundant requests for facts. Your replacement drive will perform fine for you.Thank you

Incredibly quickly drive. an great upgrade compared to the typical sata hdd I was utilizing. Crashed now just after six months of use as a boot drive. dead. not buggy, not wiped, not "computer virus infected." Genuinely, wholly, not-recognized-as-connected-in-the-BIOS dead.Problematic for a boot drive - I can't even get on the web at household now to file an rma. I have a regular backup on my storage HDD, but that doesn't make this any less annoying/frustrating. Overall, it's nonetheless a great drive, but that it failed in less than a year is a bit frustrating.MTBF isn't a valuable figure when your variance is all over the spread.

Value, speed, configuration. None. I purchased this drive to replace a Kingson 30GB SSD. I use it solely as an OS drive with a Raptor for gaming & other applications. In the Windows Encounter in Windows 7 64 Ultimate, The Kingston drive got a five.1, the OCZ got a 7.1. Much enhanced efficiency!

Comment:
Super fast Unreliable I have never ever experienced such unreliability. Setting up OS and system files takes way also long to have to deal with drives that can not be trusted. I am incredibly disappointed with this acquire.

Comment:
222.7MB/s Average Random Read when I tested it.Silly quickly. Would be hell on wheels in a raid configuration.Supports TRIM, but you can get the Idilinx wiper system if you run xp.No heat, so SSDs are excellent in hot, tiny builds. You'll be angry with all your mechanical drives henceforth. You won't be able to hide your disgust.Does take about 3 minutes to tweak Windows 7 (Not truly a con)Win XP demands to have the drive aligned before installation (with a Vista or Win7 rescue disk). As far as I know all SSD do, except for Intel drives.If you could buy two for 赨... Rapidly, specifically if you have AHCI help (as other individuals have stated). Still fast if you don't. I was concerned with the reliability and firmware of this drive initially, but decided to get it anyway. Its only my second SSD, so I wasn't sure if I must stray away from the superb first drive I purchased (an Intel). Seriously, I couldn't be happier. I place the quickly (but Considerably slower than the OCZ) Intel drive in my laptop which is unable to take advantage of the Agility's wicked speed. I place this in my new desktop build with a Phenom II 550 BE and an M4A785TD-M EVO.

Comment:
Get actually excellent speeds with it in my thinkpad t400. Ubuntu boots in less than 10 seconds. Got it at a seriously good value. None so far... It does what I expected.

Comment:
Properly its an SSD so its a step up from a tough drive. Every little thing loads seriously rapidly, windows boots super rapid. When you get an SSD you'll in no way wana place an os on a hdd any longer. It died on me following 6-7 months of usage. The 4k random write times are slower compared to the newer ssds released like vertex two, vital, or intel ssds. RMAd with OCZ who has quite nice client service which is why i like sticking with them. I shipped the ssd in a couple of days ago waiting for a reply. Its a inexpensive ssd none the less with 60Gbs of storage. Thats რ more than the other individuals charging around 100. By the way if you comply with all the instructions the rebate will come in like two-three months, and i believe it comes on a prepaid visa. I would also suggest buying a smaller ssd as a boot drive to keep the startup time rapidly and minimize wear and tear on it. Manufacturer Response:Hello, we are extremely sorry for the difficulty. Our assistance staff will see that your RMA is taken care of as speedily as attainable.Thank you
