Pros: This hard drive is amazing. It is so small and super fast. I am actually running full virtual machines off the drive from my Surface Pro and they are blazing fast. I would definately recommend this drive.
Cons: None so far.

Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1 Beautiful piece of key-rap.
Pros: Light.
Beautiful.
Cons: Not functioning for more than 30 minutes max.
Other Thoughts: First was disconnecting every 6 minutes. RMA, replaced. The new one worked for a while (a couple of weeks) then it started the same random disconnects. Same happens on any computer I tried, mac or pc.
Too light to be a doorstopper.
Manufacturer Response:We are very sorry for the difficulties. Please visit our support forums at the link below and post in the Flash/SSD section. We will be happy to assist you with troubleshooting and settings to get you running properly. We care about our customers and are here to help. Thank you

Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1 Connector to SSD flimsy, failed twice
Pros: Fast, lightweight, encryption (password protected)
Cons: Manufacturing defect; connector mounted in body of the SSD failed exactly the same way -- twice on two separate SSD's. The connector (receptical for the supplied USB cable) is not fastened securely to the body of the SSD, and it just comes right out even with very careful use. Any data (not backed up) on the SSD is lost forever.
Other Thoughts: The first one I bought failed (as indicated above) within the first week. They sent me a replacement SSD under warranty. The second one lasted 6 months and failed exactly the same way -- even though I was extremely careful not to stress the connector (after my sad experience with the first one).

This product is worse than worthless. It takes all your data then fails, making recovery impossible.

I'm going to have to go buy another external SSD, but it sure as heck won't be an iOmega.

Rating + 4Rating + 4Rating + 4Rating + 4Rating + 4 important question
Pros: Working good, more than enough power is supplied
Cons: See other thoughts
Other Thoughts: So I have the power supply and just finished assembling it. But there one thing that scares me, as soon as I started the computer the first time the power supply is supplying power but the fan only spins for a good 3 secs then it stops and after I installed all my drivers and operating systems o checked the fan If it's running but still isn't. I'm not sure if it's only moving when the power supply is really hot and does it take a while before the fan starts? Please clarify thanks you!

Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1 What a waste of money
Pros: Looks pretty
Cons: Locks up every computer it is connected to. Cant get my money back. Looks like I will attempt to RMA and hope that it is a defective drive and that the new one will work correctly.

Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1Rating + 1
Pros: Exceptionally fast with no issues until it crashed. Really did like the little drive but apparently OCZ no longer likes it or thinks very highly of it.
Cons: Bought Nov 11, 2011 and crashed almost 3 months to the day. Requested RMA only to be told this unit was no longer in production but they would exchange this $259 drive for a $155 Vertex 2 internal! Hard to believe how generous OCZ can be!!! Guess I'll just eat this one but at least I have the knowledge about OCZ Customer support or should I say lack of customer support. Really took a screwing on this one even if I swap it for the Vertex2 which I do not need as I have (not for long) 3 internal Vertex 3 drives. Gonna dump them before I have any issues with them. Oh well, back to the drawing board - a little poorer but far more educated!

Rating + 4Rating + 4Rating + 4Rating + 4Rating + 4 You've gpt to be kidding!
Pros: Fast
Cons: It's a little quirky at times random disconnects.
Other Thoughts: Emperor Crusher your statements couldn't be more erroneous. Did you dream your explanation and decide to post it? Good grief.... /em is speechless

George has it right, "When a hard drive is advertised as 128GB, that is 128,000,000,000 bytes. The amount you see in Windows (or other operating systems) is 128,000,000,000 / 2^30, which is about 119.2GB."

Rating + 5Rating + 5Rating + 5Rating + 5Rating + 5 Missing Gigabytes found
Pros: No problems.
Cons: No problems.
Other Thoughts: The drive advertises 128G of space but formats to much less. Please understand how SSD drives work. They reserve a chunk of space, so when the memory on the drive begins to fail after years of use (this happens to all SSD and flash drives) there is space available to use to keep holding your data. Invisibly to you, the firmware on the drive simply blocks off the failed section of drive memory and begins to use a new section of drive memory that had been held in reserve for this purpose. In this way, the drive lasts much longer.

My guess is that you got the entire 128G you purchased, but about 6G is reserved for the expected fail events. Admittedly, it would have been nicer to have purchased a 122G drive and have gotten the entire 122G (119G after formatting is OK and expected of all drives).

My original OCZ Vertex drive was sold as a 30G drive, but had 2G in reserve. They didn't sell it as a 32G drive. I guess they have changed their marketing practice.
