OCZ has just announced their latest solid state offerings and they definitely feature high quality on a budget. The OCZ Solid Series SSDs are intended for use in current notebook models and while not recommended for pre-2007 laptops, they do sport a 2.5-inch sizing and use the SATA II interface.
Available in 30GB, 60GB and 120GB models, if you’re looking to buy, you’ll need to keep an eye out for OCZSSD2-1SLD30G, OCZSSD2-1SLD60G and OCZSSD2-1SLD120G model numbers, respectively. All models feature read speeds of 155MB/s and write speeds of 90MB/s.
The new Solid Series supports RAID and are shock resistant. They sport a two-year warranty, as well. Another interesting point is that they use half of the power used by a hard drive of the same size. Pricing is expected to be $89 for the 30GB model, $159 for the 60GB model and $299 for the 120GB model.
