The Performance Pro solid state drives have great performance when dealing with compressed data compared to other drives, we'll check that out of course. But that means with large files like ISO, MP3, movies etc this SSD should be a beast. So sequential read and write performance should be staggering.

The two Performance Pro SSDs will include 2x nm-class Synchronous MLC Flash memory chips as well as 512MB of fast DRAM cache. Marvell works with a large memory cache, whereas SandForce uses a segment of the NAND flash the cache. That's the essential difference really.

The OCZ SSDs come with full support for the TRIM command as well as background garbage collection.
