OCZ to come out with new VERTEX SSD,S equiped with 64MB OF CACHE starting at $129

[Griff805]

For a fair comparison to the "Skunkworx" ATTO benchmark- Here's my new X25-M on an ICH10R, running Windows 7 at the time of the benchmark. I've put the queue up to 10, to match. Settings are all exactly like theirs. This should show you a more fair comparison...




Yes, the intel's write max is slower, but it hit it's max throughput, actually more than it's spec'd max write throughput at only 2k transfers. And notice the almost 280MB/s reads at 256k-

So, both are fast drives- However, it will be interesting to see the Vertex after release. It looks like it's going to come down to a small price difference, and whether the write throughput on larger files is important to you or not.
