Performance vs. Transfer Size
ATTO is a useful tool for quickly benchmarking performance across various transfer sizes. You can get the complete data set in Bench. At smaller transfer sizes, the read speeds of Vertex 460 are slightly slower than the speeds of Vector 150 and Vertex 450. Write performance is mostly the same, though, for all drives.

Thanks, fixed!Per Hansson - Thursday, January 23, 2014 - link
It's mind boggling why Toshiba would like to keep the name OCZ.I actually thought OCZ had improved since the debacles of the old Vertex drives, but then I found this:
http://www.hardware.fr/articles/893-7/ssd.html
http://www.hardware.fr/articles/911-7/ssd.html
40 > 50% failure rate on the Petrol & Octane series SSD's
10% on Agility 4
And then even more troubling from the following article:
OCZ Vector with 9 to 11% failure rate
No thank you

Was the SanDisk Extreme II 480GB really only $300 two days ago? Showing $450 at the moment :(FalcomPSX - Thursday, January 23, 2014 - link
you couldn't pay me to use an OCZ product again. i've lost 4 vertex 2 ssd's due to random failures, and although they covered it under warranty each time(yes i bought one drive, died 4 times) its not worth the hassle or risk of data loss, especially when that risk of data loss isn't a question of IF it will fail, but only a question of WHEN it will fail.mattgmann - Thursday, January 23, 2014 - link
I'd love to see some SSD comparison/ranking charts. There's such a wide variety of makes/controllers out there these days that it's getting too hard to keep track of the best performance/dollar, reliability/dollar or best drive/specific use.Plus, we all like rankings...right?

Why does the clear Storage Bench champion according to this page, 840 EVO mSATA, have 322.9 MB/s data rate on this page but only 261.5MB/s on its own review page on Jan 9, 2014??Kristian Vättö - Sunday, January 26, 2014 - link
When I first generated the graphs, our Bench had the old value (322.9MB/s) in it. I manually updated the graph with the newer and more reasonable 261.5MB/s result but for some reason the actual graph wasn't updated. It's fixed now!arehaas - Sunday, January 26, 2014 - link
Thank you for the quick reply. It will help me to select components for upgrading my laptop.jeff420 - Thursday, January 28, 2016 - link
These is a beast. I have this for awhile now and can't complain.Jeff @ http://www.audiospeakerworld.com
