OCZ officially quotes read and write speeds of 535MB/s and 170MB/s, respectively, and our test results aren't far off that mark. Read performance is actually slightly better than advertised, while write performance is slightly lower.

The contrast in read and write performance is huge in this 128GB drive - it's competitive against some of the very best SSDs when reading data, but the Indilinx Everest controller sits near the bottom of the chart when writing data to a limited supply of NAND.
