Don't you just hate it when new tech is just around the corner, but still far? ;)
And hmm, right.. warp v3 speeds are similar to Vertex, so prolly similar pricing.

At least someone answer this question. Is the delay because of manufacturing????? Or is it because of old stock that needs to go first??? HMMM?
OCZ has advised against this...results aren't so good.Quote:

I cloned severel OSes on several SSD and HDD arrays the last week while testing some SSDs.. guess what, results were perfectly identical with "normal" and cloned install, and why wouldn't they be :confused:
News from Tony OCZ :
Just asked when you guys are going to be able to buy either Vertex or Apex...answer i got back is from next week.
Vertex has had a slight delay for a new firmware update...
Apex is inbound.
As i get more you will get the news real time

Hehe just read it from the same source :up:
Woot! Next week. I think I can wait that long...
What's crazy is OCZ is releasing the Vertex 2. 500mbs+ read. Just nuts. SATAII cannot handle that.
I know I'm buying into a seriously depreciating technology right now, but I cannot wait any longer...
Vertex 2 ?Quote:

if u wait, its always something else coming u can wait 4 :)
I'd like to see some tests on the Vertex 1... and news about sata3 mainboards :D, although, there is no problem to raid 2 or 3 of the vertex1 units to get to ~600MB/s performance which is the limit for intel ichr chipset.
I've cloned my 200gb 7200rpm notebook HDD onto my new 128gb G.Skill SSD about 6 times now (had some driver conflicts getting OSx86 to run on my notebook dual booting) and i have not had a single issue with data corruption using Acronis.Quote:

Oh... and I never experienced a single stutter, hesitation, etc with this G.Skill 128gb SSD. I don't want to jump to conclusions... but I will anyways.
It sounds like they're having quality issues in their attempt to corner the market with inexpensive (cheap), fast, and high benchmarking drives. I've been known to be wrong though.
Has nothing to do with corruption. We are talking about drive alignment. As you most likely never aligned the drive to begin with using TI will show no noticeable difference.Quote:

Man, if i count all the page refreshes i did between Christmas and new years day on Vertex availabilty :wierd:
Last time for me I trust OCZ announcements !
Apex was announced 2 weeks after Vertex, and ships 2 weeks before Vertex :shrug:
I'm really excited about the Vertex 2 specs.
Serial ATA III
550MB/s read
480MB/s write
internalized quad raid 0
I hope is true, I so need to replace my scsi setup with SSDs :)Quote:
