I'm thinking of upgrading my 4x Intel X-25M SSD RAID0 on Areca ARC-1231ML, to four or eight 256GB OCZ Vertex 4's on ARC-1882ix instead. Already have the controller.
Any thoughts? Is anyone running the Vertex 4's in RAID?
I know firmware version 4 and 5 fixed the problem this SSD had with sequential read speed at low queue depths. It seems better than my current Intel drives in every way, and generally faster than any other consumer SSD's out there, my only lingering concerns are:
- Long-term reliability
- Still a minor performance issue with reads at small transfer sizes
