2011-06-21
whats up guys its Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at the ocz vertex 3 solid state drive this is the hundred and twenty gigabyte model and if you guys follow the channel you know I recently installed it inside my macbook pro in fact I'll probably put a link in the annotations above for that installation video now the reason you're seeing the unboxing in reverse is because well it was sitting on my SD card and I guess I forgot about it anyhow it's worth sharing so you guys can get an idea of exactly what to expect if you invest in this solid state drive having used it for a while I can give you guys a little bit of insight since I'm using it on OS 10 Snow Leopard to be exact there were some concerns that it might not function as expected but in my case it's been perfectly fine perfectly fast everything I expected and then some so if that means anything to you if that's any kind of vote of confidence at least on my front it's working the way it's supposed to no problems anyway let's talk about what we've got here this is a three and a half inch adapter plate so you can screw your two and a half inch SSD onto there if you want to use it in a desktop that has a three and a half inch Bay no problem see a lot of people are starting to install these SSDs in their desktops as boot up drives in order to take advantage of the improved speed so they've also got some screws included which is nice again this will help you to mount it wherever you see fit and then we've got the drive of course in its anti-static bag let's be very careful here now these things are lightweight lighter than traditional hard drives it's basically just a shitload of RAM jammed inside of an enclosure well fast solid-state RAM penny how plastic on the other side and some sort of an aluminum finish on the bottom side so is there anything else included where is the documentation there's got to be documentation is always that there we go we got some there's a little bit of paperwork and if I can ever get it I'll show you what it is so we've got a little manual and we got a sticker that says my SSD is faster than your hard drive well that's not too impressive all thats a paddlin hard drives for the most part and here's a little bit of paperwork anyway guys check out the channel we got new stuff coming up all the time and be sure to check out our giveaways
