Good performance vs. price ratio
Perfect drive as fast HDD replacement
Latest TLC technology
100% Toshiba technology (besides cache buffer)

IOPS performance has improved over older Trion 100
Toshiba controller is solid with both incompressible and compressible data
7mm chassis is practical for use in a superportable laptop
Competitively priced
The editors didn't like
Not the same endurance as MLC-based drives
“If you haven’t had the itch to make the switch
It’s about time. The OCZ Trion 150 provides an amazing performance vs. price ratio and it’s also backed by the best drive warranty on the market.”

The Trion 150 is a welcome replacement for the poorly-received Trion 100
But it's still not as competitive as it needs to be. It's difficult to recommend this model when the same company offers an MLC-based SSD for the same price
SSD market is both saturated and extremely competitive.
Well Priced, High Quality Components, Sturdy construction

As a successor to the Trion 100, the Trion 150 delivers improvements where the older drive fails. Compared to the Trion 100, the Trion 150 continues to excel at both sequential reads and writes. While the random read performance seems to take a slight per...

Unlike for processors, we've come to expect bad things from a process shrink for flash. It helps lower costs but often hurts endurance and performance. Until recently the performance penalty was mostly a matter of reduced parallelism from higher-capacity...
Available in 120GB, 240GB, 480GB and 960GB capacities, Good sequential read and write speeds under most conditions, Performs equally well with compressible and incompressible data, SATA 6Gb/s interface, Supports TRIM and idle background garbage collection
Mediocre random write performance, Write speed drops when SLC cache is full, Does not support hardware based encryption
While not OCZ's fastest or most feature packed SSD, the Trion 150 is an easy and affordable way for consumers to improve the performance of their existing desktop or notebook computer. The Trion 150 combines Toshiba's TC58 controller with their new 15nm T...
TLC NAND has lower write speeds, IOPS and endurance than MLC NAND
Now this is a TLC-based solid state drive, so compared to MLC NAND you have slower write performance, lower IOPS, and less endurance. This has not stopped many drive manufacturers from coming out with TLC-based drives. OCZ has tried addressing some of the...

– Fantastic sustained sequential performance, but 4K random IOPS could be higherWhile the drive doesn't look any different than its predecessor on paper except for newer 15-nanometer Toshiba TLC NAND flash, the OCZ Trion 150 has a hidden secret ingredien...

OCZ's ShieldPlus warranty and SSD Guru software are among the best available. The Trion 150 includes both if you're willing to overlook some of its shortcomings.
The Trion 150 is a welcome replacement for the poorlyreceived Trion 100, but it's still not as competitive as it needs to be. It's difficult to recommend this model when the same company offers an MLCbased SSD for the same price.
Products like the OCZ ARC 100 and Zotac Premium Edition with MLC flash disarm any value arguments from the Trion 150 right out of the gate. The new Trion improves on some of the performance limitations found in the original model, but that's still not e...
Outstanding price/performance, Incredible price-per-GB, Good performance increase over the Trion 100, 3 year OCZ ShieldPlus warranty, 7 mm thin—ultrabook compatible
Lower performance than higher-end MLC SSDs
The OCZ Trion 150 480 GB is currently available online for $130. Outstanding price/performance Incredible price-per-GB Good performance increase over the Trion 100 3 year OCZ ShieldPlus warranty 7 mm thin—ultrabook compatible Lower performance than higher...
Summarizing the results, OCZ's Trion 150 480GB SSD offered great performance in read tests although it could be faster in the write part, and delivers an overall good value, considering its retail price.The drive gave some very high and competitive sequen...
