okay so today I'm going to be doing a quick unboxing of the ocz agility SSD
drive so the agility is basically a series of drives that falls in between
the vertex and the Solid 2 so the
agility is based on the same indel linkx controller as the vertex and the Solid 2
as well as the vertex turbo as well as the vertex EX in fact most of ocz's
current SSD drives are based on the indel link Barefoot controller but there
is a key difference the agility Drive which are more of a value option
compared to the premium vertex drives do not have the same speed of flash okay so
the agility is actually only capable of reads up to 185 megabytes per second
here you can have a look at this and sustained rights of up to 60 megabytes
per second so that's quite a bit slower than the vertex is capable of but what
it actually means in terms of real world performance is very little because most
of the benefit of an SSD drive actually comes from the random reads and wrs
which are still very impressive on the agility versus the sustained reads and
right so Inside the Box we will find the agility in a nice little package here
and we also have a little installation guide and warranty info booklet which
includes an installation guide as well as warranty info thank you ocz now the
agility actually I have the 30 gig here today but it's available in a bunch of
different capacities 30 601 120 and 250 as of the time of this video the 250 is
actually brand new and uh was just released we we just got stock of that
one quite recently so that's uh that's a pretty exciting thing because value 250
gig drives haven't really been available widely okay so you can see from the top
of the drive it looks almost identical to a Vertex it's quite similar so it's
got a black covering on the top it's silver on the bottom but the one big
difference is that this is a different sticker okay so on the vertex it's black
and white whereas on the agility is green you'll find your typical SATA
power as well as SATA 2 Data interface at the back and I yes that pretty much
covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing of the ocz agility SSD
