"Considering the first class performances, build quality, power consumption and warranty term, we can only give to the Vertex 2 the same score achieved by the Vertex LE: 5 stars out of 5!"

"Finally we can say the Vertex 2 with 100/120 GB with and without TRIM can score with a better performance and a higher life expectation then the competitors. This is why it seems that it is (status quo) the best SSD for several operation systems, notebooks and desktops. The Vertex 2 with 100/120 GB receives our “Recommended Award".

"Users that regularly move large volumes of data are going to see a real difference with this device. The OCZ Enyo is a fine example of what can be achieved when combining SSD performance with the new USB 3.0 interface. The fact that we were able to copy a 6GB file in just over a minute blew us away. In terms of performance the OCZ Enyo showed no weaknesses. Overall the OCZ Enyo is a seriously impressive piece of hardware that offers unparalleled performance, taking portable storage to new heights."

"We've fallen even more deeply in love with the 60GB Vertex 2. Without even delving into all the numbers and benchmarks provided in our review, the best selling point for the Vertex 2 is what it offers by way of an end-user experience, and it's difficult to describe just how wonderful it is to turn on your PC, see Windows 7 boot in a few seconds, and then have all of your required applications fired up just a few seconds after that! The Vertex 2 is undoubtedly at the top of the list of Solid State Drives to consider placing on your "must buy" list - It's incredibly fast at both reading and writing data, silent, reliable and capable of maintaining that high level of performance thanks to TRIM support. Tor anyone looking to finally enter the solid state market this is as close to perfection as you can find at the time of writing."

"The 512k and 4k tests though show you just how much faster the OCZ Vertex is though, we’re talking 2,3 even almost 8 times faster if we look at that 4k Write test. Just ‘Wow’ is all there is to say there. There’s no doubt the OCZ Vertex 2 is a fast drive, in fact it’s the fastest I’ve ever tested. Seriously though, the OCZ Vertex 2 is a drive that I can easily recommend if you’re looking to have the best performing and fastest SSD out there in your system. Right now if you’ve got the cash then this is the SSD you want."

"The OCZ Solid 2 64GB SSD performed very well in our testing and we are certainly pleased with its performance. This sub-$200 price for a 64GB solid-state drive is modest and after seeing how well it performs we very pleased with the product and would have no hesitation recommending this OCZ SSD if looking for a value-oriented solid-state drive."

"The money matters on how fast the data can be written to the drive and that is what SandForce and OCZ concentrated on when they designed and built the Vertex 2 series. If you look back again at the benchmarks that were run, just about every time, the SandForce controller dominated in the write tests. When you take into account overall scores, it was the faster drive of the bunch. OCZ concentrated its development and firmware design on the write speeds with the new Vertex 2 and it seems it has worked - especially in the 4k tests. OCZ has literally put the work into the new Vertex 2 series, so you don't have to."

"OCZ gives SSDs a big push with the Vertex 2. It is one of the fastest SSD (as it is not the fastest) on the market. The performance is great, as files are opened within a look. OS loading is very short, there are no more waiting times with OCZ SSD Vertex 2 – absolutely silent and TRIM is supported! This is why we gave our recommendations award for this great product."
