00:00:01,079 --> 00:00:08,120
okay so today I'm going to be doing a quick unboxing of the ocz agility SSD

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:13,920
drive so the agility is basically a series of drives that falls in between

3
00:00:10,759 --> 00:00:16,039
the vertex and the Solid 2 so the

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:20,840
agility is based on the same indel linkx controller as the vertex and the Solid 2

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:25,119
as well as the vertex turbo as well as the vertex EX in fact most of ocz's

6
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:30,519
current SSD drives are based on the indel link Barefoot controller but there

7
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:34,840
is a key difference the agility Drive which are more of a value option

8
00:00:32,279 --> 00:00:40,239
compared to the premium vertex drives do not have the same speed of flash okay so

9
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:44,360
the agility is actually only capable of reads up to 185 megabytes per second

10
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:48,879
here you can have a look at this and sustained rights of up to 60 megabytes

11
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:52,879
per second so that's quite a bit slower than the vertex is capable of but what

12
00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:57,320
it actually means in terms of real world performance is very little because most

13
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:01,399
of the benefit of an SSD drive actually comes from the random reads and wrs

14
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:06,000
which are still very impressive on the agility versus the sustained reads and

15
00:01:04,119 --> 00:01:09,920
right so Inside the Box we will find the agility in a nice little package here

16
00:01:08,119 --> 00:01:14,400
and we also have a little installation guide and warranty info booklet which

17
00:01:12,119 --> 00:01:20,119
includes an installation guide as well as warranty info thank you ocz now the

18
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:24,479
agility actually I have the 30 gig here today but it's available in a bunch of

19
00:01:21,759 --> 00:01:29,439
different capacities 30 601 120 and 250 as of the time of this video the 250 is

20
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:33,720
actually brand new and uh was just released we we just got stock of that

21
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:38,360
one quite recently so that's uh that's a pretty exciting thing because value 250

22
00:01:36,119 --> 00:01:42,600
gig drives haven't really been available widely okay so you can see from the top

23
00:01:40,399 --> 00:01:46,719
of the drive it looks almost identical to a Vertex it's quite similar so it's

24
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:50,079
got a black covering on the top it's silver on the bottom but the one big

25
00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:53,640
difference is that this is a different sticker okay so on the vertex it's black

26
00:01:52,119 --> 00:01:58,320
and white whereas on the agility is green you'll find your typical SATA

27
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:02,560
power as well as SATA 2 Data interface at the back and I yes that pretty much

28
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:07,920
covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing of the ocz agility SSD
