Another season, another SSD roundup. This go ’round, its a six-pack of SATA III units — the speediest of the speedy — all angling to your hard-earned greenbacks. The benchmarking gurus over at Hot Hardware have assembled quite the guide for those currently available in the market, hosting up a wide range of top-tier drives from the likes of OCZ Technology, Patriot, Crucial and Corsair. We’ll leave the nitty-gritty so that it will discover, but those hungry for spoilers may be elated to understand that the SandForce-built OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS, Corsair Force GT and Patriot Wildfire proved to be the perfect performers on the subject of transfer rates. That said, every little thing managed to provoke, and while the typical user isn’t apt to feel the important-world differences among them, there is a safe bet you are not in that “average” crowd. Cliff’s Notes? The Crucial M4 was deemed superior with regards to value, while the Vertex 3 Max IOPS and Wildfire close to tied for sheer speed.
