WEBVTT

00:00:00.399 --> 00:00:05.520
3 2 1 go so guys I'm here in the ocz

00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:10.120
suite and we've actually got a ton of new stuff even more than we saw at CES

00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:14.599
201010 so there's a few things here that probably won't have much relevance to

00:00:11.840 --> 00:00:18.119
your everyday consumer now but it's a bit of a glimpse into what we're going

00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:24.760
to see in the future so this is a very early mockup of what's called an Ibis XL

00:00:21.439 --> 00:00:27.880
so this uses the proprietary ocz hsdl

00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:30.279
interface which is much much faster than

00:00:27.880 --> 00:00:34.840
even SATA 6 GB per second so you see that back there it looks kind of like a

00:00:32.040 --> 00:00:40.399
SAS connection but like I said it is significantly faster so this guy is

00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:42.360
available in capacities up to 4 terab

00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:48.079
and then beyond that you can even expand it to up to 16 terab so uh that's pretty

00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:51.840
much unheard of at this point for an SSD so moving right along this is what I was

00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:55.399
talking about before this is hsdl this is their Ibis Drive I've actually

00:00:53.239 --> 00:00:58.640
unboxed this on my channel in the past so you guys should be pretty familiar

00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:03.320
with this well here's an optical version of hsdl so now we're converting hsdl

00:01:01.480 --> 00:01:07.720
into an optical signal that we can carry over a much thinner and probably

00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:11.759
potentially a much longer C uh cable depending on the applications that we're

00:01:09.759 --> 00:01:15.040
trying to go for here so that is one of the things that they are showcasing here

00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:18.640
in the suite moving over we have some more things that we're already familiar

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:23.920
with this is Revo Drive X2 this is a bootable uh I believe it uses quad

00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:25.360
controllers for sand Force SF 1200

00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:28.840
controllers you can actually hear if I can get my camera man to come in and

00:01:27.119 --> 00:01:32.320
have a look at the overall specs so you guys can read that uh rather than me

00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:37.880
listing off everything but there's the key one up to

00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:40.720
120,000 4K iops this is a consumer level

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:46.600
product it is pricey but it is Within Reach Revo Drive is fewer controllers

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:50.280
lesser performance not bootable but still a very high performance storage

00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:53.640
solution so let's keep moving on down here and we're going to find some more

00:01:51.479 --> 00:01:57.600
interesting stuff this is z Drive R3 and what's cool about this guy is that not

00:01:55.640 --> 00:02:02.759
only does do we have Z Drive level performance we are using a newer sand

00:02:00.039 --> 00:02:08.039
Force controller the 1565 and we also have full support for trim so even

00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:13.760
though this is a raid on a card we do have trim support so that is just a a

00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:17.879
first I have never seen an SSD drive in person before that supports raid and

00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:22.800
trim well internal raid and trim at the same time Z Drive R2 we've seen this

00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:27.519
before as far as I can recall and this is a cool one over here so this is

00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:30.560
Helios this guy uses SAS 2 6 GB per

00:02:27.519 --> 00:02:32.959
second this same thing here ocz has

00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:38.239
built in custom logic that allows it to use an internal raid without actually

00:02:35.959 --> 00:02:42.920
booting into a raid BIOS configuring the drive and doing everything manually what

00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:47.480
that means is they have bypassed all of the limitations that existed in the past

00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:51.519
for these internal raid drives but they're still able to deliver

00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:55.920
outstanding performance so up here you can have a quick look with um the ones

00:02:54.480 --> 00:03:01.400
that we're looking at right now we're looking at up to 85k iops at 4K but with

00:02:58.920 --> 00:03:05.920
the newer controllers we can potentially even double that so these are deneva

00:03:03.640 --> 00:03:08.840
drives these ones are like I said not everything here is going to be relevant

00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:12.440
to Consumers these are mostly geared towards corporate customers and moving

00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:16.760
along we have quite a few things that we're familiar with like vertex 2x

00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:21.280
that's an SLC version of the vertex 2 we also have the vertex 3 Pro these are

00:03:19.239 --> 00:03:26.159
preliminary specifications these are not finalized this is using the new

00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:29.040
sandforce SF 2582 controller which

00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:33.640
supports SATA 3 6 GB per second so check out those reads right speeds those are

00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:38.400
well above the maximum rated throw put of SATA 2 so that is why we did need to

00:03:36.040 --> 00:03:43.720
move well we ocz did need to move to a SATA 3 interface vertex 3 ex is that

00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:48.200
except SLC flash so slightly better performance better longevity let's keep

00:03:46.200 --> 00:03:52.959
moving along here vertex 2 Pro is pretty much like vertex 2 except it uses an SF

00:03:50.920 --> 00:03:57.000
1500 controller which means it does have power loss data protection it has a

00:03:54.519 --> 00:04:00.519
super cap on it not necessarily real relevant for your everyday average Joe

00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:06.799
consumer but it's a great option to have here's a Vertex 2 and a

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:08.159
1.8 in form factor here's the vertex 2

00:04:06.799 --> 00:04:13.480
we're very familiar with and this is a neat one so this is a vertex 2 3 and 1/2

00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:16.759
in drive but instead of using a big uh boxy enclosure like here you can see

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:21.479
let's compare it against the ibys I want to get that top down here up here and

00:04:19.320 --> 00:04:26.000
then down yeah top down perspective on these so you can see they've built a

00:04:22.880 --> 00:04:28.960
much Slimmer 3 and 1/2 in enclosure for

00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:32.759
that vertex to drive much sleeker and sexier look looking here we have Onyx

00:04:30.960 --> 00:04:37.360
and Onyx 2 based on indel links and sf200 so we've seen that before so

00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:40.600
that's it for the ocz ssds here in their Booth don't forget to subscribe to lus

00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:45.880
Tech tips and I've got more videos coming on CES and cut go so just as a

00:04:44.440 --> 00:04:51.039
quick correction to what I said over there uh the rbo drive original version

00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:55.280
is bootable my bad so anyway let's have a look at this guy right here so I

00:04:52.440 --> 00:05:01.199
showed you the Z Drive R3 already but here we actually have a working sample

00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:06.520
and this is I'm not 100% sure if this is going to be the finalized firmware

00:05:03.280 --> 00:05:09.919
finalized PCB layout all that good stuff

00:05:06.520 --> 00:05:11.680
but this drive is booted it is working

00:05:09.919 --> 00:05:15.680
in a computer remember this is fully trim capable and it features internal

00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:19.560
raid with the Next Generation sand Force controller and here you can actually see

00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:26.240
if you have some context for good for addo benchmarks you can see right here

00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:29.800
we've got uh read speeds uh anywhere

00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:32.720
above anywhere above about 128 wow we're

00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:37.360
seeing up to about 1 Gigabyte per second remember that's not 1 gabit that's 1 gab

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:44.520
per second read speeds up at the very very highend and even approaching 1 gab

00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:44.520
per second on rights as well so that's

00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:49.319
outstanding one go we got another thing

00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:52.199
to check out here in the ocz suite I'm sorry the lighting is so bad in here

00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:56.440
guys so my cameraman's going to have to get pretty close to show you these

00:05:54.080 --> 00:06:01.199
products so we have a return of the original silencer power supplies from PC

00:05:59.080 --> 00:06:03.919
power cooling so at risk of wrecking their demo I'm going to go ahead and

00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:08.800
pick this up and I'm going to show you guys the back of this unit so it does

00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:10.639
use an 80 mm cooling fan but in order to

00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:14.880
reduce airflow turbulence through the power supply they've actually shifted a

00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:19.000
lot of the components and cooling up to the front of the power supply so that

00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:23.440
right around the fan you don't get that that hissing sound of the air rushing

00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:27.520
around components so that's one of the ways that they've really optimized this

00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:30.960
for silence now these are both 80 plus silver models I'm not actually sure

00:06:29.520 --> 00:06:35.919
which capacities are available other than these two but so far we've got a

00:06:33.080 --> 00:06:39.400
760 watt as well as a 910 Watt and one of the things that really stands out

00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:45.240
about these guys other than the wide variety of connections on them is right

00:06:41.919 --> 00:06:47.720
here these feature a 7year warranty so

00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:51.280
that is pretty outstanding right there next on sort of the other end of the

00:06:49.479 --> 00:06:54.840
spectrum we've got the Zs Series so this is a bit of a replacement for the

00:06:52.599 --> 00:06:59.879
stealth Extreme 2 they've added 80 plus bronze certification we've got a 3-year

00:06:56.680 --> 00:07:01.759
warranty 500 600 and 7 700 wat

00:06:59.879 --> 00:07:07.680
capacities and one thing that they have added on the 700 watt is four dedicated

00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:10.800
PCI E connectors so you can run a modern

00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:13.039
system with dual gpus off of the 700 wat

00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:19.039
Zs Series without any difficulty whatsoever and then this is this is the

00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:21.240
big guns so this is the ZX Series the

00:07:19.039 --> 00:07:25.759
right here I'm holding the 1250 W power supply but there's an 850 W as well as a

00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:30.800
1,000 W version that are also available you can see these feature a fully

00:07:27.479 --> 00:07:32.680
modular interface with dedicated PCI E

00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:37.039
connectors now you can see right here these modular connections are all 8 Pin

00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:41.520
so these are all 6 plus two pin connectors that means you can run three

00:07:38.479 --> 00:07:42.879
gpus regardless of what kind and uh

00:07:41.520 --> 00:07:46.479
you're not going to run out of connectors now a lot of power supplies

00:07:44.919 --> 00:07:50.960
will actually give you a bunch of PCI Express connectors and then they'll give

00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:55.280
you one CPU one and one like combo CPU PCI E1 and then you end you end up with

00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:59.720
like one odd man out so they have not gone that route they have given you two

00:07:57.039 --> 00:08:03.759
dedicated EPS 8 Pin connectors five peripheral connectors and then one full

00:08:01.520 --> 00:08:07.120
24 pin ATX I'm actually going to pick up the lowest wattage one here and I'm

00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:11.240
going to see if we have a comparable uh business end of that one

00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:17.479
so the only thing missing on this guy versus the 1250 wat unit is uh two PCI E

00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:21.520
or 8 Pin connectors and that makes sense cuz this is an 850 W power supply and

00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:25.319
that probably wouldn't be suitable so these guys are all 80 plus gold like I

00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:28.560
said fully modular and they do come with a 5year warranty so thank you for

00:08:27.080 --> 00:08:34.719
