 3 2 1 go So guys I'm here in the OCZ suite and we've actually got a ton of new stuff even more than we saw at CES 2010 So there's a few things here that probably won't have much relevance to your everyday consumer now but it's a bit of a glimpse into what we're going to see in the future So this is a very early mock-up of what's called an IBIS XL So this uses the proprietary OCZ HSDL interface which is much, much faster than even SATA 6 gigabit per second so you can see that back there It looks kind of like a SAS connection but like I said it is significantly faster So this guy is available in capacities up to 4 terabytes and then beyond that you can even expand it to up to 16 terabytes So that's pretty much unheard of at this point for an SSD So moving right along, this is what I was talking about before This is HSDL, this is their IBIS drive I've actually unboxed this on my channel in the past so you guys should be pretty familiar with this Well here's an optical version of HSDL So now we're converting HSDL into an optical signal that we can carry over a much thinner and probably potentially a much longer cable depending on the applications that we're trying to go for here So that is one of the things that they are showcasing here in the suite Moving over we have some more things that we're already familiar with This is Revo Drive X2, this is a bootable that uses quad controllers Force and Force SF 1200 controllers You can actually hear, if I can get my cameraman to come in and have a look at the overall specs so you guys can read that rather than me listing off everything But there's the key one up to 120,000 4K IOPS This is a consumer level product It is pricey but it is within reach Revo Drive is fewer controllers, lesser performance, not bootable but still a very high performance storage solution So let's keep moving on down here and we're going to find some more interesting stuff This is Z Drive R3 and what's cool about this guy is that not only do we have Z Drive level performance we are using a newer San Force controller, the 1565 and we also have full support for trim So even though this is a RAID on a card, we do have trim support so that is just a first I have never seen an SSD drive in person before that supports RAID and trim Well, internal RAID and trim at the same time Z Drive R2, we've seen this before as far as I can recall and this is a cool one over here, so this is Helios This guy uses SAS 2 6 gigabit per second This same thing here, OCC has built in custom logic that allows it to use an internal RAID without actually booting into a RAID BIOS, configuring the drive and doing everything manually What that means is they have bypassed all of the limitations that existed in the past for these internal RAID drives, but they're still able to deliver outstanding performance So up here you can have a quick look With the ones that we're looking at right now, we're looking at up to 85k IOPS at 4k but with the newer controllers, we can potentially even double that So these are Deneva drives, these ones are, like I said, not everything here is going to be relevant to consumers These are mostly geared towards corporate customers and moving along we have quite a few things that we're familiar with, like Vertex 2EX, that's an SLC version of the Vertex 2 We also have the Vertex 3 Pro These are preliminary specifications, these are not finalized This is using the new SandForce SF2582 controller, which supports SATA 3 6 gigabit per second So check out those reads and writespeeds, those are well above the maximum rated throughput of SATA 2 So that is why we did need to move, well we, OCZ, did need to move to a SATA 3 interface Vertex 3EX is that, except SLC flash, so slightly better performance, better longevity Let's keep moving along here Vertex 2 Pro is pretty much like Vertex 2, except it uses an SF1500 controller which means it does have power loss data protection, it has a supercap on it Not necessarily real relevant for your everyday average Joe consumer, but it's a great option to have Here's a Vertex 2 in a 1.8 inch form factor Here's the Vertex 2 we're very familiar with, and this is a neat one So this is a Vertex 2 3.5 inch drive, but instead of using a big boxy enclosure Like here, you can see, let's compare it against the i-ness, I want to get that top down Here, up here, and then down, yep, top down perspective on these So you can see they've built a much slimmer 3.5 inch enclosure for that Vertex 2 drive Much sleeker and sexier looking Here we have Onyx and Onyx 2 based on Indolink and SF1200, so we've seen that before So that's it for the OCZ SSDs here in their booth Don't forget to subscribe to Linus Tech Tips, and I've got more videos coming on CES And cut, go So just as a quick correction to what I said over there, the ReboDrive original version is bootable, my bad So anyway, let's have a look at this guy right here So I showed you the Z Drive R3 already, but here we actually have a working sample And this is, I'm not 100% sure if this is going to be the finalized firmware, finalized PCB layout, all that good stuff But this drive is booted, it is working in a computer, remember this is fully trim capable And it features internal RAID with the next generation San Force controller And here you can actually see if you have some context for good, for Atto benchmarks You can see right here we've got read speeds Anywhere above, anywhere above about 128, wow, we're seeing up to about 1 gigabyte per second Remember that's not 1 gigabit, that's 1 gigabyte per second read speeds up at the very, very high end And even approaching 1 gigabyte per second on writes as well, so that's outstanding One, go We've got another thing to check out here in the OCZ suite I'm sorry the lighting is so bad in here guys, so my cameraman is going to have to get pretty close to show you these products So we have a return of the original silencer power supplies from PC Power and Cooling So at risk of wrecking their demo, I'm going to go ahead and pick this up And I'm going to show you guys the back of this unit So it does use an 80mm cooling fan, but in order to reduce airflow turbulence through the power supply They've actually shifted a lot of the components and cooling up to the front of the power supply So that right around the fan, you don't get that hissing sound of the air rushing around components So that's one of the ways that they've really optimized this for silence Now these are both 80 plus silver models I'm not actually sure which capacities are available other than these two But so far we've got a 760 watt as well as a 910 watt And one of the things that really stands out about these guys, other than the wide variety of connections on them Is right here, these feature a 7 year warranty So that is pretty outstanding right there Next on sort of the other end of the spectrum, we've got the ZS series So this is a bit of a replacement for the Stealth Extreme 2 They've added 80 plus bronze certification We've got a 3 year warranty, 500, 600 and 700 watt capacities And one thing that they have added on the 700 watt is 4 dedicated PCIe connectors So you can run a modern system with dual GPUs off of the 700 watt ZS series without any difficulty whatsoever And then this is the big guns So this is the ZX series Right here I'm holding the 1250 watt power supply But there's an 850 watt as well as a 1000 watt version that are also available You can see these feature a fully modular interface with 6 dedicated PCIe connectors Now you can see right here, these modular connections are all 8 pin So these are all 6 plus 2 pin connectors That means you can run 3 GPUs regardless of what kind And you're not going to run out of connectors Now a lot of power supplies will actually give you a bunch of PCI express connectors And then they'll give you one CPU one and one combo CPU PCIe one And then you end up with one odd man out So they have not gone that route They have given you 2 dedicated EPS 8 pin connectors 5 peripheral connectors and then one full 24 pin ATX I'm actually going to pick up the lowest wattage one here And I'm going to see if we have a comparable business end to that one So the only thing missing on this guy versus the 1250 watt unit is 2 PCIe 8 pin connectors And that makes sense because this is an 850 watt power supply And that probably wouldn't be suitable So these guys are all 80 plus gold like I said fully modular And they do come with a 5 year warranty So thank you for checking
