OCZ Storage Solutions, a Toshiba Group Company and solid state drive (SSD) brand, has released the Vertex 460A SATA III SSD series for mainstream users. This line includes all the features and performance specifications of the Vertex 460 series, with new enhancements including the use of next generation Toshiba A19 MLC NAND flash, and the company’s ShieldPlus Warranty.
OCZ Vertex 460A drives are rated for bandwidth performance up to 545MB/s, random I/O performance up to 95,000 IOPS, and are available in 120GB, 240GB, and 480GB capacities. The drives are rated to deliver 20GB of host writes per day for a 3-year warranty, and feature a suite of flash management tools that analyze and adapt to increasing NAND vulnerabilities as flash cells wear, heightening data integrity, and drive life over the long term.
