SATA II

Rated for shocks up to 1500 Gs, this 60 GB drive is almost half as tough as an airplane's "black box" (3400 Gs), is light weight and takes little power to run. With 1.5 million hours mean time between failures (MTBF), your drive and your data might outlive you. And the SATA interface and standard form factor make retrofitting this drive a breeze. Your computer will never notice the difference, but you probably will. But laptops are not the only computers to gain: any rugged environment, or any place you need an absolutely silent drive will benefit.

With these breakthrough capabilities, the SSD meets all the demanding requirements for high-performance data storage.
2.5" Form Factor The OCZ Vertex OCZ Vertex OCZSSD2-1VTXA60G solid state disk is specifically designed for notebook computers equipped with a 2.5" SATA II drive bay.

N/A 1/14/2010 8:33:26 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5First Spin Pros: Very fast and that is because it reallhy doesn't spin. It is responsive for what I do with my Mac Mini Core 2 Duo Intel GMA 950. It is a little bit tricky to install in a Mini, not the fault of the drive. Pages come up quicker on the Web. Applications do respond quicker. I have 4 GB of DDR 2 667 MHz RAM amd just installed Snow Leopard as well. Cons: I will be happy when the cost comes down and performance increases even more. Other Thoughts: The wave of the future. My Mini loves it. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

BrianX 6/26/2009 4:46:01 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5	Rating: 5/5Great Drive Pros: - Good Price to Performance ratio - Mac Certified (I bought this for less than std version but I realize most of the time this carries a small premium) I bought this for a macbook pro late 2008 unibody. Cons: - Only 60gb. Once I fully buy in to SSD I will upgrade to 120gb summit or whatever the best model is near the holidays. Other Thoughts: I called tech support to verify the proper firmware. It was the best tech call I have ever had. No wait and he let me know that there are no updates for the mac edition. Do not upgrade to firmware 1.3 on this drive as that is for the std vertex. Hope this helps everyone. I liked OCZ before but after a great tech support call I love them now. 6 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

fex 5/27/2009 6:49:13 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Fast Pros: I bought this for my BlackMacbook (2.4 ghz). Delivers peace of mind (no moving parts) Super Fast, my boot time is around 7 seconds to desktop (including typing in my password). Apps just pop up, no lag, nothing. MAJOR DIFFERENCE. iTunes pops up like a pop up ad. Cons: I paid 295, now its cheaper :( Other Thoughts: Installation was a breeze. SSD brings new life into your laptops. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
