Our friends at <em>AnandTech<\/em> managed to harvest some jaw-dropping results out of their 100GB prototype &#8212; most notably, the drive topped the charts with 2MB sequential performances at around 260MB\/s (which is &#8220;virtually bound by 3Gbps SATA&#8221;), as well as a 50.9MB\/s 4KB random write rate. SandForce dubs the magic behind these results DuraWrite, which is likened to real-time compression on the drive thus saving a significant number of write cycles. No prices announced yet, but hey, do we even care any more?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/01\/ocz-vertex-2-pro-previewed-awesome-and-could-do-with-some-6gbp\/\">OCZ Vertex 2 Pro SSD previewed: awesome, and could do with some 6Gbps SATA love<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\">Engadget<\/a> on Fri, 01 Jan 2010 07:05:00 EST.
