We where pretty much dumbfounded when we tested the Vertex 3 PRO last week, given the specs of the 'regular' consumer edition Vertex 3 we wondered if this product would be noticeably slower and no, that's just not at all the case. In fact it even wins her...
Really* fast throughput - saturating SATA 6Gb/sec, Excellent IOPS scaling at higher queue depths, Overall performance similar to the more expensive Vertex 3 Pro, with the added bonus of more accessible storage
