An Impressive Solid-State Drive, The OCZ Vertex 3 SATA III Delivers!

For those who are not tech savvy, there have been some important advances in data storage in the last few years.  Arguably, the most important development is the development and mass-production of the solid-state drive.  Solid-state drives are like computer hard drives, except that instead of storing data on an electromagnetic disc that spins, the data is stored in integrated circuit assemblies. Solid-state drives are quieter and more durable than traditional hard drives.  USB flash drives are a popular and prevalent form of solid-state drive.  What you may not know is that now there are solid-state drives you may use to replace your hard drive in your PC!  One of the best solid-state drives on the market is the OCZ Vertex 3 SATA III 480 GB solid-state drive!

The Vertex 3 SATA III 480 GB solid-state drive, product number VTX3-25SAT3-480G in the OCZ catalogue, is the premiere solid-state drive from OCZ Technologies Group.  While OCZ manufactures several solid-state drives in the Vertex 3 product line, the greatest capacity SSD is the 480 Gigabyte model.  Even with today’s demanding programs, 480 GB is more memory than most PC users will need in a lifetime.

OCZ designed the Vertex 3 480 GB solid-state drive to interface with motherboards through a SATA III 6 Gbps interface.  If you are still using an older SATA device, connectivity will not be a problem; the Vertex 3 is backwards compatible to 3 Gbps devices.  To get the most out of the SATA III connection, the 6 Gbps interface allows the Vertex 3 to transfer data at incredible speeds.  Under ideal circumstances, the data on the solid-state drive may be read at up to 530 Megabytes per second and you can write to the drive at up to 450 Megabytes per second.  If you are storing full-length movies, the Vertex 3 may buffer the entire film in less than three seconds!

Compatible with Windows 7, Vista, XP and Mac OSX computers, the Vertex 3 SATA III 480 GB solid-state drive is a versatile data storage option.  OCZ provides 3.5” adapter brackets you may use to easily mount the Vertex 3 within your PC or Mac.  The whole drive weighs only 77 grams, so not only does it fit easily within your computer, it will not strain components or motherboard layouts that are atypical.

Easy to use, powerful, durable and with amazing capacity, the OCZ Vertex 3 SATA III 480 GB solid-state drive might be the last hard drive you ever need!
