OCZ Announces 1.8 Inch SSDs For Thin and Light Notebooks
OCZ Technology launched 1.8 inch Solid State Drives (SSD) to offer a storage upgrade for the thin and light notebook market. With a smaller footprint, OCZ 1.8 inch drives still deliver the reliability and performance demanded by high-end enthusiasts. Engineered for maximum productivity, the OCZ 1.8 Vertex 2 delivers the same performance as the 2.5 inch edition, yet accommodates a wider range of mobile applications and devices. Driven by SandForce SF-1200 series controllers, 1.8 Vertex 2 SSDs excel in 4KB random writes up to 50,000 IOPS and features transfer rates up to 285MB/s read and 275MB/s write. Available in 60GB, 120GB, and 240GB, it offers high capacity options for unparalleled storage space.
Solid State Drives provide numerous benefits to mobile users including improved performance and reliability as well as lower power consumption versus traditional hard drives, said Alex Mei, CMO of the OCZ Technology Group. We are now introducing two new drives that are designed to cater to the entire range of mobile applications including the Vertex2 1.8 which delivers the same performance as our popular 2.5 version in a smaller form factor for customers looking to achieve maximum performance on the go, and the new Onyx 1.8 which is designed for consumers looking for a quality SSD that is aggressively priced and is ideal for Netbooks.
