The OCZ Agility 3
Though fast
Is noticeably slower than other SATA 6Gbps SSDs without being proportionaly cheaper. It's capped at only 240GB
Takes a long time to format
And doesn't come with a drive bay converter to fit in a place of a 3.5-inch hard d
We've added more SSDs to our database and observed a number of significant price changes in the past month. As a result, this months recommendations undergo a notable revamp. And to those of you waiting for a hierarchy table at the end, it's here! Deta...
Sadly, the OCZ Agility 3 240GB doesn't deliver on its claim of offering similar performance to a Vertex 3 for much less cash. While it's cheaper than the Vertex 3, its performance presents serious pitfalls, which are brought about by the use of asynchrono...
As we've said countless times, the single biggest bottleneck in modern systems is the traditional plattered hard drive. If you want a performance boost then using an SSD in your system will make such a massive difference that you'll wonder why you were...

Abstract: Ask anyone who owns an SSD, and they will tell you that it is the single most noticeable upgrade you can make to your existing PC (provided your PC is no more than a few years old). Unlike many products, which show higher “numbers” than their predecessors...

The OCZ Agililty is a great replacement for the enthusiant looking to take their systems to the next level. Boasting incredible performance numbers with the help from the SandForce SF-2881 controller, we can not find a reason to continue using a mecha...
Abstract: We’ve opened our last few SSD round-ups with comments regarding the break-neck pace at which the solid state storage market has advanced these last few years. At the risk of repeating ourselves, the SSD market continues to show no signs of slowing down...
Available in 60GB, 120GB and 240GB capacities, Excellent sequential read and write speeds, SATA 6Gb/s interface, Supports TRIM, SMART and NCQ, 3 year warranty, Reasonably priced
Considerably slower with incompressible data, Does not include a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter bracket
While not exactly a "budget" SSD, OCZ's new Agility 3 delivers a lot of bang for your buck. Based on the same SandForce SF-2281 controller as the Vertex 3, the Agility 3 is capable of some impressive performance. Thanks to its SATA 6Gb/s interface, th...
Good performance, SATA 6 Gbps support, Supports TRIM, 3 year warranty, Nice looking, rugged metal case, 3.5" adapter included
Only 10% faster than 3 Gbps SSDs, Needs SATA 6 Gbps controller to perform best, Can not win price/performance
I would describe the OCZ Agility 3 as the typical mid-range SATA 6 Gbps SSD. It offers a decent 10% performance upgrade over "old" Sandforce based drives which support only the 3 Gbps interface. Compared to the more expensive Vertex 3 Series, we see a ...
