OCZ Onyx SATA II 2.5-inch SSD
March 11, 2010
OCZ is back with their new Onyx SATA II 2.5" SSD which aims to offer you the best bang for your buck, where it relies on multi-level cell (MLC)-based SSDs with 64MB of integrated cache to store your goods. Performance-wise, you get info transfer speeds of up to 125MB/s while reading, and up to 70MB/s during write operations. Since there is a considerable lack of moving parts compared to regular hard drives, the Onyx SSD is more resistant to shock and temperature fluctuations, coming with a mean day before failure (MBTF) rating of 1.5 million hours. You can give that a skip whether capacity is your main priority since the Onyx will initially come in only one size - 32GB at that, retailing for under $100.
