Two years ago a Solid State Drive was a pricy piece of hardware set aside for the elite, wealthy enthusiast user. This year has seen prices drop significantly, and the technology has finally made it into the mainstream. As an all round performance drive, there has been little to match the OCZ Indilinx Everest 2 controller.

I have been extolling the virtues of OCZ's Vertex 4 since it was released. Today we are looking at the new OCZ Vector drive which OCZ claim takes the platform to a new performance level.
