OCZ Agility 3 SATA III Solid State Drives are designed and built to provide an exceptional balance of performance and value. The Agility 3 Series implements the cutting-edge SATA 6Gbps interface to deliver excellent sequential and random data transfer rates, significantly improving your computing experience over hard drives.

In addition to enhanced performance, an Agility 3 upgrade promotes cooler, quieter, and more energy efficient conditions compared to traditional mechanical hard drives. With no moving parts, SSDs provide peace of mind with their superior durability and reliability. Unique and innovative, Agility 3 SSDs deliver a one-of-a-kind storage solution.

Engineered for Cost-effective performance The OCZ Agility 3 SATA III Solid State Drives are designed and built for cost-effective performance. By leveraging the latest SATA 6Gbps interface and the second generation of SandForce SSD controller (SF-2281), the Agility 3 pushes the limits in both sequential and random data transfer rates with up to 525MB/s read plus incredible 4KB random write performance of 50,000 IOPS. This significantly improves your productivity, gaming, multimedia, and overall computing experience. It is backwards compatible with SATA II / 3Gbps, and is also compliant with ATA/ATAPI-8 Standard Native Command Queuing (NCQ). (Max performance achieved using Native SATA 6Gbps chipset. Rated speeds may vary slightly depending on the benchmark used, drivers, windows version, bios version and file size.)
A Superior PC Experience In addition to enhanced performance, an Agility 3 upgrade promotes cooler, quieter, and more energy efficient conditions compared to traditional mechanical hard drives. With no moving parts, SSDs provide peace of mind with their superior durability and reliability.
TRIM Support The OCZ Agility 3 offers native TRIM support featured in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Designed to maintain the performance of SSD at an optimal level over the lifetime of the drive, TRIM functions by actively deleting invalid data from the SSD’s memory cells to ensure that write operations perform at full speed. Since a memory block must be erased before it can be re-programmed, TRIM improves performance by pro-actively erasing pages containing invalid data, allowing the SSD to write new data without first having to perform a time-consuming erase command.
S.M.A.R.T. Technology The OCZ Agility 3 adopts Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) which enables the PC to predict the future failure of hard disk drives. Through the SMART system, hard disk drives incorporate a suite of advanced diagnostics that monitor the internal operations of a drive and provide an early warning for many types of potential problems. When a potential problem is detected, the hard drive can be repaired or replaced before any data is lost or damaged.
ECC Recovery Designed with the file verification and repair tool- ECC Recovery, OCZ Agility 3 provides up to 55 bits correctable per 512-byte sector (BCH), protecting your important files and sensitive data against digital corruption by using Reed-Solomon codes.

thebrad 5/30/2013 8:53:59 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great OS Drive Pros: Great Drive to use strictly as OS Level Drive FAST Quickly Boot into your OS - Don't wait to get work done Cons: Could always use more space! Price Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Furystrikez 5/13/2013 12:09:47 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great buy Pros: Speed is excellent compared to the 7500rpm HHD I was using prior to buying this. 64bit Windows 7 boots up in about 10sec Cons: Capacity is kind of small but it was my 1st SSD and I was just kind of testing the water with this so I didn't want to buy a huge one. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
C 5/2/2013 11:41:20 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5Meh Pros: Faster than HDD. Nice size for boot drive Cons: After about 6 months, started causing random blue screens. Fairly infrequent (about once or twice a week depending on use), but still annoying. Other Thoughts: Kind of what I expected with an SSD at this price, fast but not super reliable. Will be upgrading soon. Manufacturer Response: Dear C, We would like to help you with your blue screen problem. Most blue screens are not caused by a SSD. If they are being caused by the SSD we will arrange for a warranty replacement as that is not normal or acceptable behavior. Please take note of the BSOD stop codes and visit our Support Forum. We will either get it fixed or get you taken care of with a warranty resolution. Sincerely, OCZ Support External Link(s): OCZ Support Forum\| Did you find this review helpful?

N/A 4/24/2013 6:26:29 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5 Pros: Performance was good but not great. It never seemed to have great throughput performance but access time performance was great. The 3 year warranty will come in handy when you have to RMA the drive with OCZ. Cons: I had this drive for 1 year and 3 weeks when it just died. Windows would recognize the controller but it never would initialize in Windows. Other Thoughts: I would only recommend this drive if you need fast access time performance and backup daily. The drive will quit on you in less time than a spin drive, the questions just when it will happen. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

N/A 3/21/2013 11:44:31 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 2/5Died way too early. Get a Samsung Pros: It worked well when it was first installed, very fast, seemed reliable. I think OCZ customer service did pretty well. Cons: I got this drive in May of 2012. I completely died on me Feb of 2013. OCZ also has very negative reviews for their hardware. Friends at work advise staying away from OCZ products. Other Thoughts: I gave it a shot, I didnt know much about SSD at that time, plus it was FREE with my Motherboard bundle, you cant beat free. OCZ customer service was pretty good. I sent the drive out and they sent me a brand new drive free, they were quick and gave me no trouble. Did you find this review helpful?
