The OCZ Vertex 2 SSD is a must-have for any performance enthusiast’s parts list. OCZ has produced an insanely fast solid state drive with competitive pricing. The drive comes in a 2.5″ format, so it should work with most SATA capable laptops, althoug...
Best performing SandForce-based solid state drive to date, 281MB/s read and 241MB/s write in ATTO, Best IOPS performance we have seen from a solid state drive, 3-year warranty, Included mounting bracket
None that I found

TRIM support, Good sequential read and write, Great Depth 32 Que 4k Reads and Writes, New SandleForce Controller looks good!, 3 year warranty
Price Vs Storage Capacity
Performance wise the OCZ Vertex 2 does an excellent job of satisfying our need for speed. Price wise we aren't ready to throw our endorsement completely behind any SSD at this time. With a $400(ish) price tag and formatted capacity of around 93GB that...
