The Vertex 4 SSD showcased mixed results in the synthetic portion of our benchmarking, but the real world results were just phenomenal. This meant the Vertex 4 easily beat all the other tested drives for Windows 7 boot/shutdown times and loading into game...
OCZ Vertex 4 is undoubtedly a momentous, even epoch-making product for the SSD market at large. And it is not only about its special properties or fantastic performance. The most important thing is that OCZ has joined the club of full-cycle SSD makers...
