OCZ Octane 512GB Solid State Drive Review (v1.13 firmware)

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.

Random write performance has increased from around 16,000 IOPS to around 28,000 IOPS with our test suite. This translates to a 75 percent increase, which is significant.

  1. Good drives, I actually bought a 128gb version in january. been flautless for me.

    It is a good point that sandforce are known to fail, even if they are very quick. I know a lot of people on forums who got burned with OCZ and corsair branded sandforce drives.
