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

Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.1 x64.

In the world of SSD performance, the results above are extremely rare. The Vertex 4 drive delivers fantastic results with both incompressible and compressible data (‘0x00' test). 4K QD32 performance is class leading, right at the very top of the chart, just behind the Intel 520 Series 240GB drives in RAID 0.

Above, some included compares from other leading solid state drives which we have reviewed in recent months.

  1. awesome, time to update my main system !

  2. they are great drives, good to see them all coming down in price too.

  3. Would have been nice if you would have focused on actual real world performance. Quite often synthetic benchmarks are only a very very rough approximation of real world performance.

  4. Lots of issues were fixed by this update, and yes, the performance was noticeably increased. This update was just a relief

  5. Great review & info’ thanks. I have ordered a Vertex 4 128GB and will be seeing for myself the results in real testing soon and this will be on firmware 1.5 as that has now been released.

  6. does the ONfi NAND modules support toggle mode ?
