Hi there


Right guys OCZ have landed themselves a real gem here. They are now doing 3.5" versions of the amazing 2.5" Vertex 2E drives. These drives offer the same performance as the 2.5" models on 90-360GB sizes. Due to reduced manufacturing cost on the 3.5" means these drives mean they come in substancially cheaper. Plus the new design allows upto 480GB Capacity.

So in a nutshell:-
- Same performance as 2.5" Vertex 2E
- Increased value for money
- More suitable for desktop PC's (no need for brackets)
- YOU SAVE MONEY!
- Available upto 480GB Capacity!


So here they are:-

So if you have a desktop PC which most of you have, buy one these instead, they cost less for the same performance and are easier to install. Obviously these will not fit into laptops. ;)
 
This is awesome. Cancelled my order with competitor last week for the 2.5 version so might have to grab one. Will these be available for a while or fairly limited?

I've ordered 100's, but OCZ have not manage to ship me even 100 across the whole range, so they seem a bit limited, but awsome prices. :)
