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

00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:13.920
drive so the agility is basically a series of drives that falls in between

00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:16.039
the vertex and the Solid 2 so the

00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:20.840
agility is based on the same indel linkx controller as the vertex and the Solid 2

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

00:00:23.400 --> 00:00:30.519
current SSD drives are based on the indel link Barefoot controller but there

00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:34.840
is a key difference the agility Drive which are more of a value option

00:00:32.279 --> 00:00:40.239
compared to the premium vertex drives do not have the same speed of flash okay so

00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:44.360
the agility is actually only capable of reads up to 185 megabytes per second

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:48.879
here you can have a look at this and sustained rights of up to 60 megabytes

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

00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:57.320
it actually means in terms of real world performance is very little because most

00:00:55.000 --> 00:01:01.399
of the benefit of an SSD drive actually comes from the random reads and wrs

00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:06.000
which are still very impressive on the agility versus the sustained reads and

00:01:04.119 --> 00:01:09.920
right so Inside the Box we will find the agility in a nice little package here

00:01:08.119 --> 00:01:14.400
and we also have a little installation guide and warranty info booklet which

00:01:12.119 --> 00:01:20.119
includes an installation guide as well as warranty info thank you ocz now the

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

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

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:33.720
actually brand new and uh was just released we we just got stock of that

00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:38.360
one quite recently so that's uh that's a pretty exciting thing because value 250

00:01:36.119 --> 00:01:42.600
gig drives haven't really been available widely okay so you can see from the top

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

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

00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:53.640
difference is that this is a different sticker okay so on the vertex it's black

00:01:52.119 --> 00:01:58.320
and white whereas on the agility is green you'll find your typical SATA

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

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:07.920
covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing of the ocz agility SSD
