5.0 out of 5 stars Solid State is the way to go!
No more worrying about heat buildup during the summer months. Startup loads faster. Programs load faster. No need to defrag. Incredible how much cooler my keyboard feels.

While this drive delivers great performance initially people who buy it should know that OCZ doesn't provide any means to upgrade the firmware. OCZ is currently shipping FW 1.4 with the turbo drives. It does not support garbage collection. If you put the 1.4 drives in Raid 0 you cannot run garbage collection and your performance will decline over time. OCZ says they have a problem with the firmware flasher however this has been going on for sometime now and there is no ETA when this issue will be resolved. BUYER BEWARE: Do Not purchase these drives for Raid 0. You will regret your purchase!
