OCZ Agility 3

Recommended Posts

Hey,

I just ordered OCZ Agility 3 for a friend of mine (60GB): Newegg.com - OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-60G 2.5" 60GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

I'll have some time with it, so if you have any requests of any bench let me know.

(Haven't figured out how to relink the images here.)

He told me to make sure the disk is working. I'm delivering it to him in Europe. :) I was thinking of tossing it into my M17x and putting an image of my C drive, but I don't think it will fit on 60GB. :P:D I can install Linux (Mint) or something and report with some real-world tests.

Yeah cloning is not a good idea, better with a clean installation (either Windows or Linux). The real-world performance tests are kinda hard to perform cause it's hard to measure time accurately, synthetics are a different story since some of them favor some SSDs and other synthetics other SSDs.... I bet you will end up doing everything :D

My (well, my friends') SSD shipped yesterday too. I'll see if I can hook it up through the HD bay on the dock station. For some reason the regular hard drive I just put there occassionaly gives me BSOD during boot.

and here's a comparison to my boot disk, Mushkin Callisto 60GB, with older SandForce1200, AS SSD benchmark:

Note: Agility 3 only reaches high sequential speeds on SATA 6Gb/s which I don't have on either of my computers.

EDIT: Updated the first post.

My employer bought about $100k of these last year for a SAN, at least 20% of them have already failed.

Wow thanks for sharing thats incredibly bad failure rate.

Can anyone comment on the reliability of this SSD?

I purchased one of these bad boys some time ago for my desktop, I remember it being quite the pretty penny for a 90GB back when I got it but it'd been blazing fast ever since I've got it. Just take care of it and don't cause it any unnecessary work and it'll last you.
