OCZ Trion 100 480GB: Review & Benchmark

2015-09-24
hey guys welcome back to Hardware unboxed I'm Harris Matt and today we've got OCD or ocz I'm going to go with Oh Sees dead since we're Ozzy we've got their new trying 100 480 gigabyte SSD on hand for a quick performance test we're kind of interested in this model because it's the first SSD to come out at the now toshiba own ocz that's actually to Shiva built not just using Toshiba and although the try 100 has been branded as an o Caesar product and has been developed entirely by Toshiba with no help from ursa is dead other than a bit of beta testing if you will the try and 100 is a budget focused SSD series it takes advantage of to shave is a 19 nanometer 128 gigabyte TLC NAND flash memory with a claim sequential read speed of five hundred and fifty megabytes per second and a right speed of 530 megabytes per second it wasn't that long ago that OC dead pushed out the Roman budget SSD series the aarc 100 which uses toshibas MLC NAND flash memory despite the fact that the aarc 100 series is more costly and slower than the competition Oh Sees that will continue to persevere with it rather than replace it with the try 100 the try 100 uses the toshiba tec 58 controller which ozz and toshiba caesar toshiba creation along with the firmware many have noticed the close similarities between the TC 58 PCB and that of the fires and s10 so it seems likely that toshiba is rebranding the controller and created their own firmware but for now this is just speculation the aarc 100 480 gigabyte model costs 177 dollars while the tri 100 480 gigabyte model cost 180 dollars so it'll be interesting to see how they compare in terms of performance having said that let's check out the benchmarks now first up we'll take a look at the d results in terms of read access time the tri 100 manage point zero six six milliseconds been only by Samsung's 850 pro it also performed quite well in bright access time an d at just point zero seven mil seconds next we tested sequential read performance for crystal dis mark with the try 100 scored a rather good 534 megabytes per second in terms of sequential write performance it was edged out slightly by the 850 Evo and again beaten by the 850 Pro random 512k read performances where the try 100 started to fall down it managed just 396 megabytes per second and felt a fourth position on our graph random 512k write performance is worse the try 100 only managed 291 megabytes per second which was well shy / other test models random 4k read performance is no better managing just 22 megabytes per second and random 4k write performance was also poor just 44 megabytes per second we next tested with pcmark 7 and in the video editing test the OC said try and manage to meet you 146 megabytes per second well behind its rivals pc marks gaming tests was no better with just 86 megabytes per second and again falling well behind its rival SSDs our final test was in pcmark aids storage bandwidth test the try 100 fell short again was only able to throughput 177 megabytes per second compared to 291 from Samsung as 850 Evo model the try and won hundreds performances lackluster at best and when compared to other budget SSDs such as the crucial be X 100 or Samsung 850 Evo it's clearly outclassed unfortunately with less than stellar performance the only possible saving grace could be the price without a hundred and eighty dollars the try 100 480 gigabyte model is no cheaper than the beer to 100 while it costs more than the 850 Evo also Oh Sees data only offers a three year warranty and 120 gigabyte endurance rating which makes it an even tougher sell compared to Samsung's 850 Evo which comes with a 5 year warranty thanks for watching this has been mapped the hardware unbox let me know what you think in the comments hit like hit subscribe and we'll see you next time yes you
