Our Vertex 4 series, the fastest SSD available on the market, just became even faster with our latest 1.5 firmware release. The higher capacity drives have a significant increase on sequential writes which now reaches up to 510MB/s.

Rethink Storage Performance & Endurance

As the fourth generation of the legendary Vertex family, the Vertex 4 Series pushes storage performance to the max and redefines the modern day computing experience. Vertex 4 SSDs are innovatively engineered to deliver industry-leading file transfer rates and superior system responsiveness, all while providing a more durable, reliable, and energy efficient storage solution compared to traditional hard drives. Designed to take full advantage of the SATA III interface, the Vertex 4 unleashes ultimate productivity, gaming, and multimedia applications.

Excelling in Performance, No Matter the File Type

Mirroring real-world performance scenarios over a broad spectrum of consumer desktop and mobile applications, Vertex 4 SSDs are designed to provide a superior user experience and extreme performance over the other current solutions available on the market. With the cutting-edge Indilinx Everest 2 platform, Vertex 4 is optimized for consistent, high speeds with the complete spectrum of file types and sizes including both compressible and incompressible data for balanced performance like no other drive you've experienced.

Industry's Highest I/O Performance

Incredible performance at up to 120,000 IOPS in workstation and heavy-duty environments with multiple data threads

No Compression-Related Limitations

Better performance with "real world" data streams of varying "compressibility" as well as fully incompressible data such as videos and multimedia files, encrypted data, archive files such as .ZIP files and software.

Indilinx Infused™ Everest 2 Platform

Leading edge dual-ARM controller architecture enables faster performance like nothing else you've experienced.

Industry-Low Latency and Boot Ups

Boot up in as little as 9 seconds, and experience latencies of 0.02ms enabling superior responsiveness and data access.

Ndurance 2.0 Technology

Sophisticated advanced suite of NAND Flash management increases durability and reliability to expand the NAND's lifespan.

Industry-Leading Warranty

Limited 5 year warranty backed by OCZ's renowned service for ultimate peace of mind.
