OCZ Agility 2 120GB SSD review

The Agility 2 packaging is slim, neat and helps keep down shipping costs.

The unit is supplied with a 2.5″ to 3.5″ inch mounting adapter, documentation, mounting screws and an OCZ sticker which says ‘My SSD is faster than your HDD!”.

The drive is finished in the same colour scheme as the box, a rather fetching black with mint green stripe. The rear of the chassis has additional information on the specifications. The drive is based around a SATA II interface which is able to handle speeds of up to 300 MB/s.

OCZ use 16 flash chips with the formidable Sandforce SF-1200 controller which you can see located right in the middle of the PCB above. The Agility 2 does not use an additional DRAM cache chip like many others. The flash chips are manufactured by Intel with a capacity of 8GB each and are built on the 34nm engineering process.
