So, these are almost the same as the regular Vert.Ex drives. That means they're a 2 and 1/2 in solid state drive. They have 64meg cache. They come in 30, 60, and 120 gig capacities. But the key difference for this one is that the Vertex Turbo features the Indelinks controller, the Indareoot controller. It's the same one, but unlike every other Indelinkx drive on the market, it is slightly overclocked. So that means that the Indelinkx controller in the Vertex Turbo can actually process data just a little bit faster than in the Vert.Ex, the Agility, and every other Index drive on the market. So, let's without further ado, get this baby opened up and have a look. Oh, you know what? Here, here, hold on. Sorry, camera. Here, come have a look here.
