OCZ Vertex 2 Review
Today we’ll have a look at OCZ’s Vertex 2 SSD. As the ‘2′ in the name implies it is of course a follow-up to the original Vertex, which was developed to tackle Intel’s then-new (but still very popular) X25-M drives. This time around, OCZ has teamed up with SandForce–a relatively new name in SSD technology that has quickly gained momentum thanks to highly efficient controllers.
OCZ Agility 60GB Deal: Save $60
The Agility series from OCZ was hailed as “the affordable alternative” when the drives came out about a year ago, with the 60GB version priced at $220. In that case it’s almost twice as affordable now, for $119.99 after a $50 price cut plus an additional $10 mail-in rebate. Note: This rebate expires 07/31/2010.

Granted, the Agility can no longer compete with the fastest SSDs on the market right now, but it still offers good 230 MB/s read and 135 MB/s write speeds, assisted by a 64 MB cache. That, by the way, is faster than the 30GB version from the same series, which is rated at 185 / 100MB/s reads/writes.
