OCZ Vertex 3 SandForce SF-2000 Based SSD Preview
HD Tach Performance
Simpli Software's HD Tach is described on the company's web site as such: "HD Tach is a low level hardware benchmark for random access read/write storage devices such as hard drives, removable drives, flash devices, and RAID arrays. HD Tach uses custom device drivers and other low level Windows interfaces to bypass as many layers of software as possible and get as close to the physical performance of the device being tested."

The upcoming OCZ Vertex 3, once again, posted best-of-class scores. In these HD Tach tests, the Vertex 3 performed on par with the Vertex 3 Pro in terms of reads, but the 'standard' Vertex 3's write scores were the best overall.
