Their drives were better than Crucial. I had a Crucial SSD that due to a firmware bug became unusably slow (far slower than a mechanical drive) after a couple of months. They released a firmware update that supposedly fixed it (which also required tweaking BIOS settings and booting in to a weird minimal version of Windows 95 - in 2013...), but it only made it slightly better, still a totally useless drive. I'd take an OCZ drive any day - been using one in my main dev desktop for a while now and it's kept up just fine.
Surprised it's not Crucial going under after that experience.
- prirun 13y agoI bought 2x4GB new Crucial memory sticks to upgrade a Mac this year, and they failed memtest. They are no longer a premium brand IMO. Replaced them with used Kingstons from eBay. No problems.
