OCZ Vector (256GB) Review

Our new light workload actually has more write operations than read operations. The split is as follows: 372,630 reads and 459,709 writes. The relatively close read/write ratio does better mimic a typical light workload (although even lighter workloads would be far more read centric).
The I/O breakdown is similar to the heavy workload at small IOs, however you'll notice that there are far fewer large IO transfers:

64KB | 5% |
Our light workload remains Samsung's safe haven with the 840 Pro. OCZ's Vector does improve performance considerably over the Vertex 4 (+25%) but Samsung manages a 16% performance advantage here with the 840 Pro.
