Legit Reviews posted a review on the OCZ Vector 256GB Indilinx Barefoot 3 SSD



Every once in awhile we kick off a review with a little historical background of the company and/or product to help put things in perspective for the reader. This may be met by some with a rolling of the eyes but nevertheless, we’re going to start this one off with a little bit about OCZ. There's a reason for this so hang with us here. The vast majority of people reading this will probably remember OCZ as a company who primarily dealt in computer DRAM memory products for many years, eventually offering a smattering of other components and accessories like power supplies and flash drives. OCZ was quick to jump in and embrace the SSD market, being one of the pioneers in that arena which eventually led to them eschewing their other products to focus solely on SSDs. Legit Reviews has followed OCZ closely through all those years and provided coverage for a number of important milestones in their history.
