OCZ Vertex 450 256GB @ PureOverclock
 

The OCZ Vector 450 is today’s topic of discussion, and it’s the first time we’ve seen the venerable Vertex name produce an in-house ASIC design for the market. With a power-optimized clock and AES-256 encryption, the M10 derivative of the Barefoot 3 controller promises top performance at a more affordable price point than the flagship OCZ Vector model as well. Replacing the Vertex 4, the new Vertex 450 looks to chew through incompressible data, unlike the competition’s SandForce-controller drives. So how does the performance of the Vertex 450 measure up? Is it worth the investment? Let’s dive in and find out.
