Louis_G@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/26/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:-2.5" to 3.5" adapter's screws are hard to screw into place. Pros:-Fast-Does not require bios flashing for most mobos-Windows installed perfectly Comment: First experience with SSD and I am very satisfied. It does not crash, was detected right away by mobo and Win7 install disk.
Chad_B@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/23/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:a bit pricier (but it's constantly on sale..) Pros:Sata3, install bracket included Comment: First purchase of my own SSD, install went smoothly. Vast improvement from a Disk drive on my media machine. Haven't run into any stuttering or anything of the sort so far in the past month.
d_p@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/13/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:price is still high per GB Pros:Very fast, easy to install,comes with bracket Comment: had this for 2 months, no problems so far. Very fast. bought previous versions of vertex ssd in the past. Still will continue buying from OCZ.
Yvan_H@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/05/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:OCZ utility and documentation Pros:Beats a hard disk Comment: Replaced a 5400 RPM hard drive in a budget laptop. Night and day. Kudos to OCZ for continuing firmware development. Brickbat to OCZ for the absence of clear documentation (re: firmware update s) and a cryptic update utility. The Linux update util ISO (appears to be third party) is the way to go for main system drive upgrades.
dustin7837@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 07/03/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:none yet Pros:FAST!, great price on sale Comment: This drive is much faster than the vertex 3 and hopefully just as reliable. Love it.
Robert_A@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/29/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:Had to update the firmware to get the best speeds. This is REALLY easy for a tech savvy person. May be a problem for an email/facebook checker. I imagine also the reason for this sale. New models should come with 1.4.1.3 or higher. Pros:FAST! So much better than my 7200rpm Comment: Great drive. I've only had it for a few days but so far my restart times have been reduced substantially along with installs and game load times.
Kruller@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/27/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:-destructive firmware update Pros:-Fast-Came with 3.5" drive adapter-Easy firmware update, even with the drive installed as my main drive-great price. I got this on sale for $119.99 Comment: So far I love this drive. I was worried about purchasing this drive due to the reviews talking about the destructive firmware update and having to have it as a second drive on a spare computer. Once I recieved the drive and needed to do the update I contacted OCZ and they instructed me on how to do the update to 1.4 from a CD at boot while the Vertex 4 was my only drive installed. The process was very easy.The speed of this drive is awesome. I used to be one of the last person to load into BF3 and know I am one of the first. The boot time is also crazy fast.Overall I am impressed with this drive and I am looking at buying a second one for me and a third one to istall in my wifes laptop.
MaximumN00B@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/21/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:Firmware updates require another computer Pros:Fast, on sale Comment: Drive runs smooth in laptop, okay price for size of drive; however, firmware updates require plugging into another computer which requires taking computer apart to update.
PanzerIV@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/20/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:- Specs here says for Read/Write -- 535Mb/200Mb and on OCZ's website with firmware 1.4 they say 550Mb/420Mb but with CrystalDiskMark I only get 445Mb/242Mb on the latest firmware so wtf?! Pros:- Best price/quality ratio on sale at 120$ for 128Gb! I paid that price for the Crucial M4 64Gb I bought 1.5yr ago!- Fastest SSD available, yet no lame SandForce controller so more reliable. Comment: Remember to unplug all other drives when installing Win7 otherwise this dumb*** will create a system partition on ur other HDD and you'll have to reinstall all over again on ur SSD. I clearly lost 1-2 houres. For the firmware update you need to SHUTDOWN, not restart if you want it to work. Mine came 1.3 so I update d to 1.4.1.3Not sure if OCZ's spec are bs cause I don't trust write speeds of 420Mb on a non-sandforce drive and even less if they're previous 200Mb before firmware 1.4 was tested on the same program they used "ATTO" cause I get much less with CrystalDiskMark. I'll investigate this but so far it's a damn good deal!
Eric_L@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/19/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:none Pros:5 year warranty, not a Buggy sandforce controller. Comment: I purchased this 128GB SSD to replace my OCZ vertex 3 60 SSD, That I have had in my gaming for my OS drive. I just needed more space. I picked it up onsale for $119.99 what a steal for a 128GB SSD. I am thinking of picking up another one for a raid 0 setup. The speeds of the ssd do increase with the new firmware version, but it is a destructive update so you will lose all your data.So backup before you update .
Brian_B@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/19/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:None that I can think ofI suppose it could have come with latest firmware but not really an issue, see pros Pros:Super fastEasy firmware updateNice 3.5" mounting bracket Comment: Got win7 installed, and it booted before the windows logo could finish spinning around... very cool.Updating the firmware was super easy and their forum had a detailed guide for the whole process.Was heavily considering the Crucial m4, but this is using a similar controller (actually newer) and seems to be just as reliable so far.Got for under $1/gb, at that price it's a steal. Plan to buy a 64GB version for my server in the near future.
Jordan_C@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/08/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:-None Pros:-Fast-easy to update Comment: The process of installing a new firmware is pretty easy if you follow the instructions. Load times for skyrim have hit the floor since installing this as a game drive. Nothing bad to say about the drive so far.
Jonathan_S@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/04/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:-SSD is not detected on cold boot on my gaming laptop (MSI GT780DXR-275US). I have to reboot the computer for the SSD to be dected. I returned the firse SSD, but got the same issue with the replacement one. Pros:-Excellent performances-Good price Comment: Appart for the issue mentioned, the SSD performs amazingly well. Unfortunately, releasing a drive with that kind of issue is bothersome for me. I don't plan to wait for a year for a fix, so I'll get an Intel drive instead. It's sad, but at the speed computers are evolving, waiting a year to have a fully functional drive is the time one would buy a new one... The bug was a deal breaker for me.
Gilles_C@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 06/04/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:OCZ don't give you the SSD with the latest firmware, it's always a bit stressful to update a firmware because of the risk that this may cause. Pros:Windows booting so fast, after the Windows boot logo I'm ready to type my password and I can't even see the "Welcome" message... Comment: This is my first SSD ever, I expected a good time to move forward with this technology. I am completely satisfied with my purchase, the performances are incredible compared to my HDD. The utility for updating firmware is very easy to use, here's the link: http://www.ocztechnology.com/ssd_tools/OCZ_Vertex_4Starting Windows will never be the same with a SSD Vertex 4 ;)
Andrew_N@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 05/22/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:Mounting adapter didn't work with the sleds of an Antec 302 Pros:Great initial boot times of about 8 seconds after first installing Windows.Includes screws and a 3.5" mounting adapter. Comment: Initial reviews of the Vertex 4 had it performing very lackluster but once you update it to the newest firmware, it reaches its potential and performs just as well or better than a Vertex 3. A warning: it is a destructive update so you will have to either install windows twice on it or put it on a different computer to update the firmware.
Vincent_G@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/24/12	OCZ Vertex 4 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce TBD Solid State Disk Flash Drive SSD Cons:None yet. 2 days of pure awesome usage only Pros:Awesome product. WORKS ON MY MACBOOK PRO 5,5 MCP79 3gbps Comment: I wanted a SSD for a long time. I am a MACBOOKPRO user and have a mid 2009 SataII MCP79 sata controller in my machine. It is knows to problems with the sandbridge chip SSD's... I was doubtful and pulled the trigger on the new Vertex 4 Indilinx was the reason. It worked like a charm. Installed just like any drive. Enabling TRIM in osx cli was just a simple cut/paste joke. I am STOCKED !
