Funky Kit and HardwareLOOK have reviewed the OCZ RevoDrive 3 120GB PCI-E solid state drive, which features 975 MB/s read and 875 MB/s write speeds.

Let's see what they had to say:

  • Funky Kit:

    "All told I am very impressed by the RevoDrive3, watching windows load from it makes my giggle every time. My only real issue with it is the lack of drivers for Linux, I like to use both Windows 7 and Linux. The lack of Linux drivers makes the drive less useful for me, and could be an issue for business as well. In the final rating that lack of drivers hurts, but even with that issue the drive gets a very solid 8.7/10 rating. If you need a drive with absolutely blazing large file and/or large queue performance, it's hard to beat a RevoDrive3."

  • HardwareLOOK:

    "It is clear that the OCZ RevoDrive3 is the top dog around these parts and definitely worth the buy, for the PC or gamer enthusiast or the average, everyday consumer as the drive appeals to the whole market with its easy SI BOIS and top notch transfer speeds. All of this is packed into a relatively small asking price of £269for the 120GB version which can be found currently at Amazon.co.uk, and is priced at $392in the US from Amazon.com."

This is obviously a terrific product, but you are paying a $60-80 premium over two high-end 120GB SSDs in RAID-0.
