OCZ Vertex Real-World Test Caught on Tape: SSD vs HDD While all those benchmark charts displaying 200+mb/s read and 150+mb/s write are impressive to see, it's also good to actually have some idea of what that extra performance brings you in real life. We prepared two identical laptops with Windows 7 and Windows XP, one had a conventional HDD, the other a brand new OCZ Vertex SSD. The result is worth checking out. http://www.madshrimps.be/gotoartik.php?articID=923 |
wow what a difference :O :O Next laptop is with SSD for sure !!! pity i can't swap the hdd :( |
put it in your desktop, works just as well FYI :D |
The problem is that i don't have a desktop anymore :D atleast for 2.5 years... I checked google and it seems there might be a chance it would go :D need to check it out in the future because i hate startup time when i am talking with a custumor. grtz |

the SSD is really something for in future, price/performance i dont know. The Eee PC from a friend i had here some time ago, had 4GB flash HD did about the same like that SSD. |
EEE PC has low end CPU; stick SSD in a higher end system to get the most from it ;) |

those SSDs in netbooks are low end, SD cards with build-in converter to SATA, they have very low I/O , nowhere near the performance level of these OCZ Vertex drives ;) |
i see, though its nice that u tested it :D. would work well for PC mark huh. |
I'd say yes;) http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=836355 |

good enough for 50+mb/s in XP startup for PCmark05 benchie :) http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=845364 |
lol looks like il be needing a SSD soon to bench PC05 :). |
No, SSD is being kicked in the nuts by Ramdisks. At least, in PCMark05 |
you obviously have not seen 4xSSD Vertex on a PCIe raid controller ;) 1000mb/s read speed ! |
With MFT ... which is not allowed on hwbot :) |
that's without MFT Massman :) with MFT you can reach those speeds with a single oldie SSD |

that's because Solid/Core v1/v2 series is nowhere near performance levels of Vertex;) |

Edit it's 230 vs 170, sorry 'bout that, but still these are theory numbers. I can get my 4x170 no prob when benching with the raid card, but in PCM05 I get about 80 :-/ To be clear I have a core V2, not a solid. |
core, solid, all the same JMicron which fails at 4k random write; PCMark05 XP startup IS random read/write; Indilinx controller with latest OCZ firmware on the Vertex is massively better than JMicron SSDs; Quote:
RAW data, random 4k write: - X25-M 23mb/s - Vertex 6.47mb/s - JMicron Core/Solid V1/V2: 0.02mb/s Vertex is 323x times faster than Core/Solid SSD, Intel X25-M is 1150x times faster Quote:

imagine 4 of them in RAID 0 ;) |
so u say that intel's one is best for the benching part ? http://www.alternate.be/html/product...wTechData=true this one for one? |
X25-E is faster still;) SLC vs MLC; but are we looking at price or not? fastest is Software RAM DISK if you must now; but impossible at this time to load OS on there... maybe in the future:) 6000mb/s read speeds:D |

please quote me where I talk about stuttering? single vertex reaches 80~100mb/s in XP startup test two in raid double of that, 4x of them in RAID without MFT who knows;) cache can only help so much... anyway, for benching, to answer Blind's answer: most affordable and fastest is ACARD (€350) with 4~8gb DDR2 (€80~120). Buying a RAID card (€350) and 3~4x 30gb Vertex will be more expensive, not necessarily faster. |

I work on a big project and we have been using SSD's for some months now and we noticed a LOT of improvement. Here is a post with some real usage stats: codemadesimple.wordpress.com |
