Here again we see mostly decisive victories for OCZ's RevoDrive 3 X2, with only one marginal shortfall in the Application loading test, where Fusion-io's ioDrive squeaks out the top spot. Other than that, we see a sizable lead for the RevoDrive 3 in Windows Media Center and Movie Maker with a virtual draw versus the LSI WarpDrive in the Windows Media Player test.
