It’s a shame that all the OCZ disks are haunted by what I like to call the “OCZ SSD syndrome” which is a ridiculous low number of write operations per second. The first disk to be plagued by this problem was the OCZ Core disk. Today I read a review of their Apex model and it seems to suffer from the same problem.
I can’t believe that they’re still releasing disks with this problem! It has to affect their reputation in a very negative way!? I’m curious to read reviews of their new Vertex series. They’re supposed to have 32-64MB on board cache that should remove some of the iops problems.
Guess it’s just left to hope that we’ll see cheap SSDs without iops problems soon!
