Given the announced changes, nothing about the Vector 150 was any kind of surprise. As much as we like surprises, in this case, not having any was a good thing. The move to 19nm Toshiba MLC flash was a very logical move in a number of ways. First, it pu...
Warranty good for five years (or 50GB of writes a day), Increased overprovisioning for more durability, Support for 256-bit encryption
Competing drives consume less power when idle, Expensive on a per-gig basis
The Vector 150 features updated flash memory and promises improved longevity, but its performance isn’t markedly better than OCZ's previous-generation drive, and it costs more than competing alternatives. ...
Final Thoughts ]From a performance point of view not a lot has changed, the Vector 150 was slightly faster than the original Vector in some tests while it was slower, much slower, in some cases. When compared to the Samsung SSD 840 Pro and SanDisk Ex...

There was once a time when OCZ was synonymous with SSDs. The company sold much of the enthusiast community its first solid-state devices in products like the Vertex and Agility. But then the plankton bloomed, and now industry whales like Samsung, Micron, ...
Solidly constructed and proven SSD design, Increased performance over prior Vector, Reduced cost enabled by use of 19nm flash, The Vector's 7mm thickness allows greater mounting flexibility,
Price (maybe see below)
OCZ has kept the Vector line fresh by introducing 19nm Toshiba flash into their top tier consumer product. Performance was not negatively affected by the smaller process, and the 50GB/day throughput rating over a 5-year warranty span shows that both O...
Silky smooth operation as a system drive, Excellent sequential reading and writing performance, even at very low queue depths, Outstanding performance in a workstation environment, Outstanding sustainable performance curve, Excellent 4K random writing
Nothing to mention.
Let us summarise the most important positive and negative points belowPositiveSilky smooth operation as a system drive.Excellent sequential reading and writing performance, even at very low queue depths.Outstanding performance in a workstation environment...
Good performance in real-world workloads, Great endurance, Sleek, solid, and efficient build
Top-tier pricing, Could perform better in smaller random transfer workloads
With its solid overall performance, the OCZ Vector 150 is a worthy addition to the OCZ lineup. What really makes the drive pop though is its endurance. Supporting 91TBW and five year warranty, the Vector 150 offers perhaps the most well rounded feature se...

The OCZ Vector 150 LS 240GB (1GB byte = 1,000,000,000 bytes) drive yields 223Gib (1Gib = 1,073,741,824 bytes) to the user after over provisioning and Windows formatting have their share. This is in contrast to the original Vector which had less over provi...

The Vector 150 is a logical successor for the Vector. It doesn't redefine SSD performance, yet OCZ has managed to add enough improvements to the Vector 150 to make it a different product. The first one is IO consistency. While the Vector had good performa...
