About This Product
The OCZ Vertex 2 EX was an early SATA SSD, offering a significant speed upgrade over traditional hard drives at its release. With a SATA 3.0 Gb/s interface and 100GB capacity, it provided faster boot times and application loading. However, its performance is now significantly outpaced by modern SATA 6.0 Gb/s and NVMe drives, making it a poor choice for new builds or performance-critical tasks.
Verdict
“Not recommended for new purchases; suitable only for very old system upgrades if free.”
