agility and vertex drives but the difference is that it does have lower-end flash memory on it so that means that in terms of your maximum performance you only get up to 125 mb per second reads and 70 MB perss rights so it does suffer a little bit in terms of performance compared to a more premium drive but the advantage is that you're still going to absolutely smoke a magnetic hard drive in terms

happen for me here oh okay never mind this doesn't sealed as badly as I thought okay so we just pop that open there we are and we open up the drive so I've actually got eight of these and I'm going to be running them all on a RAID controller to see what kind of numbers we can get if we team up a bunch of entry level drives uh on a RAID controller versus running uh one higher end drive so here we are we have an installation guide and warranty info ocz covers this I believe for 3 years uh limited warranty uh that should be on the back oh two years on onyx drives so you do get a slightly shorter warranty but in terms of price they are not even close to the other drives so you got to kind of take the good with the bad it looks like they're standard SSD drive so you got a nice black housing this is a 2 and 1/2 in Drive so it is compatible with either desktop or notebook computer on the back you find a sticker that you shouldn't remove because then your warranty will be void and at the back of the drive you find a standard SATA power and SATA 2 Data interface thank you for checking out my unboxing of the ocz Onyx and uh hopefully you'll stay tuned on my blog for the uh interesting video that I'm going to have coming up as soon as I have time"}
