OCZ Vertex 4 128GB SSD Review (firmware 1.4 update)

IOMeter is another open source synthetic benchmarking tool which is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drive and solid state drive technology.

We use a custom Kitguru configuration for 4k random write to measure performance. We use the same test, but for random read performance also.

IOmeter performance is exceptionally good in both 4k random read and write tests. Every company does rate the drives slightly differently, but our results are very close to the OCZ claims. The results are basically indistinguishable between the 512GB drive with 31 firmware and the 128GB drive with the newer 1.4 firmware.
