OCZ Vertex 3 Low Profile Solid State Drives are built to unleash the full potential of the 6Gbps SATA III interface in a new sleeker form factor designed for high performance computing applications.
With increasingly thinner notebooks dominating the industry, the new 7mm height form factor easily integrates into the latest mobile computing platforms. The OCZ Vertex 3 LP features incredible data transfer rates and responsiveness, significantly improving your gaming, multimedia, and overall computing experience over traditional mechanical hard drives. Using leading controller and flash technology, Vertex 3 LP SSDs are ideal for next generation platforms and operating systems to deliver a faster, more versatile storage solution.
Built with the quality, reliability, and durability that lives up to the OCZ name, the Vertex 3 LP Series easily integrates into today’s mobile and desktop platforms and features TRIM support to optimize performance over the drive’s lifespan as the ultimate Windows 7 companion. Vertex 3 SSDs are available in 60GB to 480GB capacities.
- Leading performanceUsing the second generation of SandForce SSD controller (SF-2281) and MLC NAND Flash, the Vertex 3 LP 7mm SSD is designed and built to unleash the full potential of the 6Gbps SATA III interface and significantly improve your overall computing experience with fast read and write speed.
- A Superior PC ExperienceIn addition to maximum performance, a Vertex 3 upgrade promotes cooler, quieter, and more energy efficient conditions compared to traditional mechanical hard drives. With no moving parts, SSDs provide peace of mind with their superior durability and reliability.
- Thin Form Factor to Support the Latest LaptopsWith the industry moving towards increasingly thinner and lighter laptop designs, the Vertex 3 LP 7mm SSD is ideal for on-the-go performance computing for personal, business, and educational needs. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking to integrate SSDs into systems with small form factors such as ultra-thin notebooks and netbooks, the Vertex 3 LP is built with the same blazing fast SATA 6Gbps interface yet easily integrate into today’s mobile platforms and support sleeker, lightweight designs.
- TRIM SupportThe Vertex 3 LP 7mm SSD offers native TRIM support featured in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Designed to maintain the performance of SSD at an optimal level over the lifetime of the drive, TRIM functions by actively deleting invalid data from the SSD’s memory cells to ensure that write operations perform at full speed. Since a memory block must be erased before it can be re-programmed, TRIM improves performance by pro-actively erasing pages containing invalid data, allowing the SSD to write new data without first having to perform a time-consuming erase command.
