Cheap Flash? OCZ release SF-2000 master low-end version

Last week, the OCZ Agility was also just released 3 series solid state drive, today they introduced Solid 3 series. Solid 3-series solid state drives continue to be used
SandForce SF-2281 main control chip, but the position and Vertex 3-Series high-end, Agility 3 position different from the mainstream is, Solid position the 3 series SF-
2000 series-master the low-end products.

Solid 3 contains and 60GB models, with 25nm MLC NAND Flash chips, 2 million hours mean time between failure, support TRIM, equipped with SATA 6.0Gbps interface and 20K IOPS 4KB random access performance, Agility 3 50K than many lower IOPS and Vertex 3 60K IOPS, presumably to firmware and type of Flash memory chips to do Division. But its highest continuous read/write performance is still reached 500MB/s and 450MB/s.

OCZ Solid 3 GB retail price of € 109, and 190 euros 120GB, 120GB version than Agility 3 pre-202.5 euro prices are lower.

The author believes that through the firmware restriction is not able to reduce costs, so reduction in IOPS performance is likely to be a cheaper Flash memory chip. Not long ago, OCZ Vertex 3 of the ultimate 70K also introduced the IOPS Max series, known as is the use of more quality NAND Flash memory. However, OCZ respectively in these types of products specifically what kind of standard Flash chip is not published, this slightly wrong.
