The OCZ Trion 150 SSD Review
by Billy Tallis on April 1, 2016 8:00 AM ESTAnandTech Storage Bench - Heavy
Our Heavy storage benchmark is proportionally more write-heavy than The Destroyer, but much shorter overall. The total writes in the Heavy test aren't enough to fill the drive, so performance never drops down to steady state. This test is far more representative of a power user's day to day usage, and is heavily influenced by the drive's peak performance. The Heavy workload test details can be found here.
The Trion 150 offers very slightly improved average data rates over the Trion 100 on the Heavy test. Sub-20nm planar TLC still falls short of everything else on this write-heavy test.
The average service time of the 240GB Trion 150 is substantially worse than the Trion 100, but the larger capacities only barely regressed.
The larger two capacities of the Trion 150 offer modest improvements to the number of high-latency outliers, but still struggle much more than most MLC drives. The 240GB model performs about the same as its predecessor.
Power consumption is improved for all capacities of the Trion 150, but only slightly. Even the most aggressively power hungry MLC drives fare better.

You simple didn't embrace internet.bji - Friday, April 1, 2016 - link
Nah. I just don't steal stuff, that's all.rtho782 - Saturday, April 2, 2016 - link
By the definition of the word, neither does he. Piracy is not the same as stealing.bji - Saturday, April 2, 2016 - link
Fine. I don't pirate stuff, that's all. It's no better than stealing anyway, I'm happy to use the word of your choice.Lolimaster - Friday, April 1, 2016 - link

Oh you want 2TB SSDs for a good price do you? Well get in line. I was trying to find a decent priced 1080p, i5, SSD, 8GB equipped Laptop today. In 2016 you'd think there were dozens and dozens by now. Nope. Slim pickings. Seems 90% of the Windows hardware world is going backwards or stagnating. Sure I could add the SSD and ram later but we were looking for straight out of the box solutions.Arnulf - Friday, April 1, 2016 - link
You are better off using quality SSD of *your own* choice anyway, those OEM SSDs can be rather mediocre when it comes to performance.Getting a decent screen is the real issue, so many "HD ready" full-mirror-finish-for-maximum-glare screens ... in 2016.

For the premium they make you pay for the SSD laptop you can easily get twitce the space doing the SSD upgrade yourself.doggface - Saturday, April 2, 2016 - link
As a desktop support engineer who works on $2k business laptops, i can tell you that for sata based ssd, oems put truly cheap and nasty ssds in theit laptops. Better off buying your own.jabber - Monday, April 4, 2016 - link
Why are you guys telling me to install my own afterwards? I already told you I know that. Plus I told you in this instance it had to be out of the factory/box not a case of cracking it open and upgrading. Just read stuff before rushing to post.
