    We have been testing ocz ssd2-1c64 drives for weeks.
    It's vitally important that hardware is tested in show situations for any hidden problems.
    No problems have appeared yet and we have done comprehensive performance testing. Including testing against SCSI in nvidia and ati systems and different OS'S.
    They do work almost as well as mtron about 1layer less when playing 16 layers.

    As far as mtron 7500 vs 3000 etc for almost every application. Noone will spot the difference unless you like products with 'PRO' marketing for catalyst usage there will be no added value. Those attempting uncompressed hidef excepted.

    Those with no experience in software and hardware qa.
    You never ever rely on the experiences or reports of one individual.

    All claims are checked double checked and then qualified and checked again.

    There are 5 years of macs using catalyst and one must always expect surprises.
    Hoping something will work does not make it work.
    Software and hardware need to be tested to work.
    One does not assume it will.

    As with normal sata drives the headline benchmarks are irrelevant.
    What is important is random access read time not data transfer rates.

    all ocz drives are 2.5inch drives and you will need a reliable drive tray adaptor for intel mac pro.

    we have been testing these from maxupdates.com
