WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.879 Thank you to the HyperX YouTube channel, youtube.com/krstonhyperx for sending us 00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:10.400 here this year. Also, thank you to linda.com and Phantom Glass. We're here 00:00:08.639 --> 00:00:16.000 at OCZ to check out their replacement for their Vector 150, the new not yet 00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:20.400 released yet Vector 180, probably named because they're pulling a 180 from the 00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:24.480 Vector that they were previously on. I'm sorry. Moving on to the drive itself. 00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:30.960 And away from terrible puns, there's three different configurations. 240 GB, 00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:33.200 480 GB, and 960 GB. All of these drives 00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:39.120 have a maximum bandwidth of 550 megabytes per second, and a maximum IOPS 00:00:35.680 --> 00:00:41.840 on the two larger ones of 100K and 95K 00:00:39.120 --> 00:00:47.760 on the smaller one. Sustained IOPS are 20,000 for the smallest and the biggest 00:00:44.239 --> 00:00:50.559 one, and 23,000 for the 480 gig. They're 00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:54.879 rated for 50 GB a day of usage and have a 5year Shield Plus warranty. What the 00:00:53.120 --> 00:00:59.120 heck does a Shield Plus warranty mean? Well, if anything goes wrong with the 00:00:56.559 --> 00:01:02.800 drive, they have told me that you can send a message to their RMA team and 00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:06.640 they will ship you out a new drive right away with a shipping label for your old 00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:10.159 drive. So, there isn't nearly the amount of wait time that you would have to go 00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:13.520 through if you had to ship them your drive and then wait for them to verify 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:17.280 that it's broken and then they can ship you a new one. No, they just send you a 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:20.960 new one right away and just hopefully you send your old one back in. That's a 00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:24.479 pretty intense warranty and probably comes from confidence due to their 00:01:22.720 --> 00:01:28.960 acquisition from Toshiba. I've been talking to the guys here for a little while. They've been telling me that 00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:33.280 their overall failure rates and RMA returns are much lower than they used to 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:37.119 be. Something that's plugged OCZ for a while now. This kit also comes with a 00:01:35.119 --> 00:01:40.799 drive adapter so that you can clone over and cloning software to go through that 00:01:38.880 --> 00:01:45.040 cloning process. While the overall aesthetic design isn't super new, I do 00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:49.920 really appreciate the jet black background and think that it's a pretty good looking drive overall. Thank you to 00:01:48.320 --> 00:01:53.680 HyperX for sending us here this year. Check out the YouTube channel, 00:01:51.479 --> 00:01:56.640 youtube.com/krston HyperX for a ton of cool gaming videos and I think we even 00:01:55.119 --> 00:02:02.880 have some stuff on there as well.

Also, thank you to Phantomglass, 00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:07.920 store.fanlass.com to pick up some of the best damn screen protectors out there. 00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:11.520 Also, linda.com. on linda.com/packs will get you a really cool offer code and you 00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:15.680 can use that offer code to learn things like programming or editing in Premiere 00:02:13.760 --> 00:02:18.400 or even some business practices. Pretty much whatever the heck you want. Be sure 00:02:17.200 --> 00:02:23.599 to check them out as well. All right, guys. Thanks for watching. If you were sketched out about OCZ before, now that 00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:27.360 they've been acquired by Toshiba and there's been some some time for the 00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:29.840 growing pains to wean out, are you interested in them again? Is is this 00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:34.319 something that you're interested in? Let me know in the comments down below or over on the forum.
