The average user wont notice any difference between this or the best ssd around . Difference in windows loading will be a second or 2 , app loading will be difference of just milliseconds.
Huge jump from mechanical though.
A person who transfers terabytes every day from one ssd to another will want the best ssd's they can get
if they have the motherboard and cpu to make the most of the best ssd.
The Anandtech review is not very kind - http://www.anandtech.com/show/9408/ocz-trion-100-240gb-480gb…
"the Trion is the slowest modern TLC drive we've tested and in some cases it is so by a quite hefty margin. "
"The poor performance also translates to power inefficiency. Because the drive spends more time processing each IO, it will end up idling less than a faster drive would and as we saw in the trace-based tests that results in higher total power consumed than any other drive we have tested."
The SanDisk Ultra II 960GB has been on OzB a few times for around the $250 area, although it's always from Amazon somewhere, not local stock.
Exactly true.this is almost the slowest and cheapest ssd.when writing large data,speeds are low. Not bad for a cheap read-only ssd.
got one of the sandisk from of the previous amazon deals, nice drive, will need to get another one.
I will be more concerned about reliability than speed.
Any speed issues were fixed in the Trion150. No issues with reliability. OCZ also have an advance replacement warranty, one of the best in the industry for their SSD's.
are these slow
