The editors liked
Good performance vs. price ratio
Perfect drive as fast HDD replacement
Latest TLC technology
100% Toshiba technology (besides cache buffer)
3-Year ShieldPlus Warranty
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
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.
The Trion line from OCZ always intended to be more of a budget oriented drive that tendrf to focus on reads more so than writes; this remains true with the Trion 150 as well, but with a few improvements. While there were a few dips in 4K read speed (and...

Before drawing any conclusions, let's look at the Trion 150's relative overall performance compared to other drives in our labs. We distill the overall performance rating using an older SATA SSD as a baseline. To compare each drive, we then take the geom...

There are still many who have yet to experience what it is like to have an SSD in their system. With the many benefits from such an easy and simple upgrade and thanks to high competition, SSDs are now a viable option for almost any budget build. Sure, the...
Low, albeit not the lowest, cost for high capacity SSDs, Supports TRIM, NCQ, and RAID, New Toshiba controller and NAND provide exceptional performance in most applications
Performance still not as good as MLC drives, especially in iOPS, No included utility or migration software, Only a 3year warranty
IMPORTANT: Although the rating and final score mentioned in this conclusion are made to be as objective as possible, please be advised that every author perceives these factors differently at various points in time. While we each do our best to ensure tha...
Though I'd still recommend an MLC SSD for the best overall experience with large data sets, the Trion 150 will actually perform faster than many SSDs in normal, everyday use. If you find it at an unbeatable price, go for it...
Abstract: The Trion 150 has been generating a fair amount of buzz since its release back in January as being a nice budget solid-state drive ideal for first-time SSD buyers. The Trion 150 is a true budget SSD with the 480GB SATA 3.0 drive retailing for just $140 US...
The OCZ Trion 150 is without question a massive improvement over the previous Trion 100 model in every respect. The Trion 150 is cheaper, albeit marginally, and it's faster in most tests by a reasonable margin. This is all great news for potential buyers...

The Trion 150 brings a modest performance boost and a marginal price cut over the sixmonthold Trion 100 series.
Much slower than the Samsung SSD 850 Evo, retreads the same ground as existing drives, questionable reliability.
Good overall performance for a budget SSD, Swanky-looking outer shell, Advance-swap replacement warranty
No accessory bundle whatsoever, Slightly expensive for an entry-level drive
OCZ's second-gen TLC-based budget drive is decent overall, but its lack of cloning software or in-box accessories could baffle some first-time SSD buyers. Read More…...
